Maintenance
Proper belt tension must be maintained to transmit the engine/motor power to the cutting
drum. An over tensioned belt will shorten belt and bearing life.
A damaged, stretched or excessively worn belt should be replaced.
Check oil level before operation. Change engine oil and filter according to engine
manufacturers recommendations.
Engine Air Filter
Important! Clean air filter element daily
Inspect the air filter for excess dust, dirt or damage before the engine is operated. More
often if operating in an extremely dusty environment.
Operating the engine with a damaged or dirty air filter, or without an air filter, will allow
dirt to enter the engine causing premature engine wear which is not covered under the
engine manufacturer’s warranty.
Follow the engine manufacturer’s procedures for keeping filters in good condition.
Never work on or under equipment without first securing the equipment to prevent it from
moving or falling.
Always work on a flat and level surface.
Remove spark plug lead on gasoline/propane engine models or disconnect the supply
voltage connector on electric models before performing any maintenance.
Disconnect the power cord at the machine.
