WARNING:
The engine must be switched off BEFORE LUBRICATION IS IMPLEMENTED
Lubricate moving parts carefully (arm and the end of all cylinders). Unnecessary wear and
mechanical damage may be a result from insufficient lubrication. Use the universal lubricant.
IMPORTANT!
Avoid lubricating too much. Dirt is collected in exposed grease and leads to in-
creased wear. After greasing, wipe off excess grease from the fittings.
