• Turn the shaft slowly counter-clockwise until the
drive axles stop rotating backwards and make a
mark on the transmission housing (RS).
• Turn the shaft slowly counter-clockwise until the
drive axles begin rotating forwards.
• Turn the shaft slowly clockwise until the drive
axles stop rotating forwards and make a mark on
the transmission housing (FS).
• Turn the shaft clockwise 1/3 of the distance
between the two marked stop points.
• Hold the shaft still (N=8) and tighten the lock nut
(N=17).
• Make sure that the drive axles do not rotate in
the neutral position by slowly moving the ma-
noeuvre arm to the neutral position from the
forwards and backwards positions.
If the drive axles do not rotate backwards despite
the fact that the hexagonal shaft has rotated a full
revolution, the neutral position is to be adjusted in
the following manner:
• Turn the shaft slowly counter-clockwise until the
drive axles begin rotating forwards.
• Turn the shaft slowly clockwise until the drive
axles stop rotating forwards and make a mark on
the transmission housing (FS) and shaft.
• Turn the shaft clockwise 8° from the mark on the
transmission housing.
• Hold the shaft still (N=8) and tighten the lock nut
(N=17).
Maintaining the Transmission
Oil Change
Most homeowners with gardens do not have the
tools or experience needed to change the transmis-
sion oil. The transmission probably has a longer life
than the rider itself, which means that being able to
change the oil is not of major concern to the aver-
age consumer. The lifespan of the transmission
increases, however, if the oil is changed.
If the rider is used commercially, we recommend
changing the oil first after 50 hours of use and then
every 300 hours.
The K 46 transmission holds 2.2 litres (SAE10W/30
engine oil, class SF-CC).
No oil change is required for manual transmissions.
