excessive wear. The exchange interval can be extended up to
130
hours with oils of higher grades
(API GL – 5, SAE 80W – 90). The running-up period of 5 hours must be observed.
Czech oils fully meeting the requirements are
„MOGUL TRANS 90“
or
„MOGUL TRANS
80W-90“
.
Oil replacement should be made when the box is warm and oil is easy to drain.
1. Clean around the oil plugs. Underlay the machine and secure it so that a space is created under
the machine for a vessel to collect oil.
2. Loosen the pour-in plug on the rear wall of the box and the drain plug in the bottom of the
gearbox (spanner No. 19).
3. After the oil has been drained, screw back the drain plug in the bottom of the box. Fill the
gearbox with the new oil (it is advised to use a funnel with flexible tubing). Oil level should
reach to the lower edge of the hole. Then screw the pour-in plug back. If the seals under the
plugs are damaged, replace them with new ones.
6.1.2 Engine oil replacement.
Information is to be found in the Instructions for engine operation. To drain oil, the
machine should be either tilted to the side with the pour-in neck with oil gauge, or the
engine should be dismounted from the machine (see
Chapter 7.4
, items a),b),d) ).
Recommended engine oil available on the Czech market and specially designed for air-
cooled engines of gardening machines is
HEKRA DYNAMIC Mineral 15W-40 (API
SJ/CF)
