Cleaning the oil filter
- Clean the oil filter every 4 months or every 200 hours of operation.
- Replace if necessary.
Changing the air cleaner element
Do not wash the air cleaner element with detergent because this is a dry type el-
ement. Change the air cleaner element every 6 months or 300 hours (or earlier if
dirty).
CAUTION:
Never start the engine without the element, or with a defective
element. Change the element in time.
Replacing the fuel filter
The fuel filter also has to be cleaned regularly to ensure maximum engine output .
(1) Drain the fuel oil from the fuel tank.
(2) Loosen the small screws of the fuel cock and pull out the filter from the F.O. tank. Wash the filter thoroughly with diesel fuel, re -
move the lock nut, end cap and diffuser discs and clean the carbon deposit.
- Replace every 100 hours
Note: Tightening cylinder head bolts (Refer to the manual of diesel engine) requires a special tool. Don't try it yourself.
Checking the injection nozzle, injection pump, etc.
(1) Adjusting the valve head clearance for the intake and exhaust valves.
(2) Lapping of intake and exhaust valve.
(3) Replacing piston ring.
All these require special tools and skills. Do not perform the injection nozzle test near an open fire or any other kind of fire. The fuel
spray may ignite. Do not expose bare skin to the fuel spray. The fuel may penetrate the skin and cause injury to the body. Always keep
your body away from the nozzle.
Checking and replenishing battery fluid and charging and battery

- Pull out the plug at the cover of diesel engine and add 2ml of lubricate in cylinder, and finally put the plug on its original place
- Maintenance of starting position
(1) Manual starting Press the pressure-reduce handle (non-compression position), pull the recoil handle 2-3 times. (Don't start diesel
engine).
(2) Electric starting When the starting handle is in the position of non-compression position, operate the diesel engine 2-3 seconds.
When the switch is in the position of start, don' start the diesel engine.
- Pull the pressure-reduce handle out, pull the recoil starter slowly. When you feel the fastness, stop the pulling. (At this time the intake
and exhaust valve is at the status of close, it is suitable to prevent from rust).
