between them should remain when pressing the two belt parts together in relaxed condition.
No adjustment of the belt tension is required in that case.
• If the belt tension proves to be too loose or too tight, it must be adjusted. A loose drive belt
will bang against the protective cover.

11.4 Maintenance after 20 hours of operation
11.4.1 General lubrication treatment
ELIET is committed to using high-quality materials that extend a machine’s life cycle
despite sometimes dusty work circumstances.
For this reason, special lubrication products have already been applied in the factory. ELIET also
recommends lubricating all the parts below on a regular basis:
• bearings
• hinges
a. Lubricating bearings
Caution:
As applies to all maintenance work, the engine must be turned off.
Unplug the machine. Utility gloves are essential.
Bearings that are used under dusty circumstances benefit from regular cleaning and lubrication.
• Tilt the machine backwards by pushing the handlebar down. This way, it is easy to access the
spike axle.
Before lubricating the bearings they must be cleared of old lubricant and deposits. Cleaning
spray aimed at the bearings and in the bearing joints will do the job easily. ELIET recommends
NOVATIO KLEENSPRAY-S.
• Allow it to work for a few minutes so that it can enter the bearing as well.
• Let the bearings run while blowing away all deposits and cleaning agent with compressed air.
Repeat the above procedure if not all dirt was removed.
• Check that the bearing does not show excessive play. Also check that the bearing runs
smoothly. In the event of defects, consult your ELIET dealer for a bearing replacement in order
to avoid future inconvenience.
• Re-apply a high-quality lubricant. Spray NOVATIO NOVA PTFE OIL into the joints of the bearing
seal.
• Wipe away any excessive lubricant.
• Place the spiker back on the wheels.
