Power Hoe 1000

5. Maintenance
Apart from adhering to operating instructions for the power hoe, it is also impor-
tant to observe the following maintenance instructions.
W
Warning: Only do maintenance work with the engine
shut off.
To prevent accidental start while working on the hoe or the engine, always
remove the spark plug connector from the spark plug.
The power hoe will operate reliably at all times, if it receives proper servicing.
After each operation clean the power hoe, especially the hoeing tools. Lubricate
all visible and moving parts now and then with Bio-lubricating oil or Bio-lubricating
grease (steering handle pivot bearing), especially after cleaning the machine with
a pressure washer.
Transmission
Check the transmission oil level every 8 operating hours. With the transmission
housing in vertical position, the oil level must be visible within the filling opening.
Only carry out a transmission oil
change in combination with an engine oil
change, i.e. after draining the engine oil.
This is to prevent engine oil from running
into the combustion chamber of the cyl-
inder when tilting the hoe. First oil change
after 50 hours, all further oil changes af-
ter 250 operating hours.
l
Screw out the filler plug (A/15).
l
Tilt the hoe forwards so that the used
oil can be drained completely.
l
Fill in fresh transmission oil (filling ca-
pacity and quality see specifications).
l
Check the O-ring and replace if neces-
sary.
l
Screw in the filler plug (1) together with
the O-ring (2) and tighten the plug.
Only carry out an oil change with the en-
gine warmed up.
Check the transmission for oil leakages.
Any damaged or leaking seals and O-
rings must be replaced immediately.
