Maintenance
2
Lubricate the drive chain with engine oil or other good
quality oil. This is required every 10 hours of running time
to maintain full functionality and service life.
3
Refit the service hatch.
Checking the brake
The brake is a disc brake and is located on the gearbox.
Make sure the brake is adjusted correctly by braking sharply
at full speed on level ground. Use a service workshop to
perform this task.
Adjusting the throttle wire
The throttle cable may need to be adjusted, if the engine does
not respond as it should when accelerating, if it produces
black smoke or maximum revs are not reached. Use a service
workshop to perform this task.
Replacing the air filter
If the engine seems to lack power or does not run smoothly
this may be because the air filter is clogged. It is therefore
important to replace the air filter at regular intervals (see
Maintenance/Maintenance Schedule for the correct service
interval).
Replace the air filter as follows:
1
Open the engine cover.
2
Loosen the knobs holding the filter cover in place and
remove it.
3
Lift out the air filter cartridge from the fan housing.
4
Replace the air filter cartridge, if clogged with dirt.
5
Refit the air filter and air filter cover.
Checking the tyre pressure
The tyre pressure should be 0,8 bar / 80 kPa / 11,6 PSI for all
wheels

CAUTION!
Do not use compressed air to clean the paper filter.
Do not oil the paper filter. They must be fitted dry. Carefully
clean the fan housing so that dirt does not fall down into the
carburettor.
CAUTION! Different tyre pressures on the front tyres will
result in the blades cutting the grass at different heights.
