4. Operating and maintenance information
After a running-in time of app. 5 hours, all accessible screws and nuts (except the carburettor adjusting
screws) must be checked for tightness and they must be retightened, if required.
Check the complete machine for operational safety.
4.1 Gearbox
lubrication
To lubricate the bevel gear drive, use SOLO "Special gearbox grease" (part no. 008318025). Check the
grease level weekly and top up, if required (approx. every 20 - 50 hours).
Remove the filler plug from the side of the gearbox. If no
grease is visible inside, top up with grease (top-up
quantity approx. 5 – 10 g).
Replace and tighten the filler plug.
Please note:
Do not overfill with grease, as that may lead
to the gearbox overheating. Never fill the gearbox casing
to the top with grease.
Tip:
If required, top up with a maximum of 5g grease. It is preferable to check more frequently (e.g. before
you start working) whether grease is still visible.
Your SOLO dealer workshop is happy to help you in case of doubt.
