Adjusting clutch
As clutch wears out, the same lever could have a
wider opening, being so uneasy to use. This means
that it is necessary to adjust the cable, setting
clutch lever on its original position acting on the
adjustment device and on counter-nut.
Adjusting steering
If you have difficulty steering the unit, you will
need to adjust the steering levers with the special
adjusters. Slacken off the locknut and unscrew the
adjusters to eliminate the play in the cable, which
can occur after initial use or normal wear. Be very
careful not to unscrew the adjusters too much
because this can create another problem: the loss
of traction. Remember to tighten the locknut when
you have finished.
Lubrication
The gearbox is pre-lubricated and sealed at the
factory.
Check oil level every 50 hours of working. Remove
the plug and check, with machine horizontal, oil
reaches the two notches. If necessary, add the oil.
Use portable tool lithium #0 grease such as
Lubriplate 6300AA , Lubriplate GR-132, or Multifak,
e.g. EP-O.
Oil must be replaced when hot by unscrewing filler
cap and plug equipped with an oil dipstick. When
oil is completely drained, replace filler cap and fill
up with new oil.
Tightening tracks
With use, tracks tend to loosen. When operating
with loose tracks, they tend to slip over the driving
wheel causing it to jump its housing or to work in
precarious situation, thus damaging wear to the
housing.
To check track tightness, proceed as follows.
Set the machine on a flat surface with compact
ground, better on an asphalt or stone pavement.
Lift the machine and set it on blocks or supports
rated for the weight of the machine so that the
tracks are approximately 100mm off the ground.
3. Measure the track midline vs. the horizontal
line. The reading must not be more than 10-
15mm.

MAINTENANCE
If the machine is stopped on a steep slope, a wedge
should be placed against one of the tracks.
Idle speed
Set throttle control lever to its “ SLOW” position
to reduce stress on the engine when working is
not being performed. Lowering the engine speed
to idle the engine will help extend the life of the
engine, as well as conserve fuel and reduce the
noise level of the machine.
Stopping engine
To stop the engine in an emergency, simply turn
the engine switch to the OFF position. Under
normal conditions, use the following procedure.
Move the throttle lever to the SLOW position.
Let engine idle for one or two minutes.
Turn the engine switch to the OFF position.
Turn the fuel valve lever to the OFF position.

Do not move choke control to CHOKE
to stop engine. Backfire or engine
damage may occur.
A proper maintenance and lubrication will help
the machine in a perfect working condition.
Preventive maintenance
Turn off engine and disengage all command levers.
Engine must be cool.
Inspect the general condition of the unit. Check
for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving
parts, cracked or broken parts, and any other
condition that may affect its safe operation.
Remove all debris and other materials that may
have accumulated to the track and unit. Clean after
each use. Then use a premium quality lightweight
machine oil to lubricate all moving parts.
Never use a “ pressure washer” to clean your
unit. Water can penetrate tight areas of the
machine and its transmission case and cause
damage to spindles, gears, bearings, or the
engine. The use of pressure washers will result
in shortened life and reduce serviceability.
