8. MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Make periodic inspections of the machine to ensure
that the machine is correct. For a thorough inspection
take the machine to your dealer.
It is necessary to stop the engine and to check
that the cutting tool is stopped before cleaning or
transporting the machine.
Before performing any maintenance or repair the
machine make sure the engine is off and remove
the spark plug cap. Perform all maintenance of the
machine when is set on a flat and clear surface.
Do not adjust the carburetor. If necessary, take your
machine in for service. Carburetor adjustment is
complicated, and only the technical maintenance
service must do them. Incorrectly setting the
carburetor may cause damage to the engine and will
be cause for cancellation of the warranty.
The removal of security devices, an improper
maintenance, the substitution of elements with non
original elements can cause corporal damages.
When cleaning the machine with high pressure water,
never direct the jet at the bearings as these could be
damaged and this would invalidate the warranty.
Grease the bearings, the blades and the rotor against
corrosion before storing the machine.
Before carrying any work on the rotor, block the rotor
using a spanner on the rotor axis.
Check frequently that the emergency button works.
8.1. CARE AND MAINTENANCE AFTER USE
Carry out the following operations when you have
finished the work to ensure that the machine is kept in
a perfect condition.
8.1.1. CLEANING
Keep the machine clean, especially the area of the
fuel tank and areas close to the air filter.
8.1.2. CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
- Place the machine on a horizontal, uncluttered flat
surface.
- Unscrew the oil filler cap.
- Clean the oil cap dipstick with a cloth.
- Insert the dipstick and screw on the oil cap.
- Unscrew the plug again and check the mark left by
the oil on the dipstick. The mark left by the oil must
be between the minimum and maximum marks.
- If the mark is below the minimum add a little more
oil and recheck.
- If the mark is above the maximum you will have
to remove oil from the crankcase. To do this, tilt
the machine and let out a little oil (put a container
at the end of the tube to prevent oil spilling from
the machine or onto the ground).
