Maintenance
Maintenance after each Operation
ATTENTION! Before cleaning, inspecting or maintaining the engine,
make sure that engine is stopped and has cooled down. The engine will
heat up during operation. Do not touch the exhaust system. There is
risk of burns!
Before working on the machine (transport, mounting, dismounting,
cleaning and servicing) and if not in use, remove the spark plug cap.
Frequent Inspections
Before starting work and after refuelling the tank, check if the trim
head is seated securely.
Even when used in the intended way, some components are
subject to normal wear. They have to be checked frequently. These
parts include, among others, the protective hood and the trim head.
These parts have to be replaced depending on the kind of duration
or usage.
Check the gear lubrication, especially during longer periods of work,
and severe dust exposure. So you will avoid excessive wear and
damage to the machine.
Gear Lubrication
The gear case must be lubricated regularly.
It is advisable to lubricate the gear case
every 20 hours of operation. Use Lithium
machine grease.
Use a grease gun and lubricate the gear
case via the hydraulic grease nipple.
