8.1.2. BLADE SHARPENING
Blade sharpening should be done in an authorized
after sales. Do not sharpen the blade by yourself. The
blade must be sharpened guaranteeing the correct
angle and equilibrium of the blade. Sharpening if not
an expert can cause excessive vibrations that could
cause damages to the machine and will make the use
of the machine very uncomfortable to the end user.
Be careful when checking the state of the blade,
remember that although the engine has stopped the
blades can be moved manually.
8.1.3. 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).
