1 2.4 Service intervals
Service by the specialist dealer:
For private use, annually
Maintenance of the tiller should be
performed by a specialist dealer. VIKING
recommends VIKING specialist dealers.
Maintenance by the user:
● Before each use
Check the engine oil level (see engine
instruction manual)
● After each use
Clean the machine. ( Ö 12.2)
1 2.5 Storage and periods of
inoperation (winter break)
Store the tiller in the normal position
(transport chassis folded out). For space-
saving storage, fold the handlebar
downwards as shown.
Store the machine in a dry, locked, dust-
free room. Make sure that it is out of the
reach of children.
Any faults must always be remedied prior
to storage. The machine must always be in
a safe operating condition. Keep all nuts,
pins and screws tightly fastened, replace
danger signs and warnings on the
machine that have become illegible and
check the entire machine for wear and
damage. Replace all worn and damaged
parts.
Also note the following points when storing
the machine for long periods (winter
break):
● Clean all external parts of the machine
with care.
● Empty the fuel tank and carburettor.
● Thoroughly lubricate/grease all moving
parts.
● Unscrew the spark plug (see engine
instruction manual) and pour approx.
3 cm³ of engine oil into the engine via
the spark plug hole. Turn the engine
several times with the spark plug
removed (pull the recoil starter rope).
● Screw the spark plug back in (see
engine instruction manual).
● Perform an oil change (see engine
instruction manual).
● Cover the engine and store the
machine in the normal position.
1 3. 1 Transporting the tiller
1 Pulling or pushing the tiller:
● Set the brake spur to the highest
position. (
Ö 11.5)
● Fold out the transport chassis. ( Ö 11.4)
● Hold the tiller at both handles (1) and tilt
backwards until the machine is standing
on the transport wheels.
● Push or pull the tiller slowly (walking
pace).
On firm and level ground, push the
machine. On rough and uneven ground,
it is advisable to pull the machine.
Danger of tipping over!
The tiller can tip over forwards if the
hoes are poorly positioned. For that
reason, always check that the tiller
is stable.
If necessary, turn the hoes slightly
to reduce the top-heaviness.
Alternatively support the tiller in the
area of the carrying handle during
storage.

Fire hazard!
Keep the spark plug socket away
from the spark plug hole due to the
danger of ignition.
