STORAGE
For long term storage of the Brushcutter, perform all regular maintenance procedures and needed repairs.
Empty the fuel tank. Start the engine and allow it to run until it stops. Pull the starter cord a few times to
remove any excess fuel from the engine. Remove the spark plug and insert a small amount of oil. Pull the
starter cord once and bring the piston to a position closest to the spark plug hole. Reinstall the spark plug.
Store the brushcutter in a dry place away from excessive heat, sparks or open flame.
LUBRICATION : GEARCASE
The gearcase should be checked for lubrication after each 30
hours of use. Remove the cutting attachment and the boss
adapter. Clean any dirt and debris from the area between the
boss adapter and the gearcase. Remove the grease plug from
the side of the gearcase. While rotating the attaching shaft,
Inject lithium base bearing lube (P/N 211337) through the plug
hole until the gearcase is full. Reinstall the boss adapter and
grease plug.
GENERAL CLEANING AND TIGHTENING
The MARUYAMA brushcutter will provide maximum performance
for many, many hours if it is maintained properly.
Good maintenance includes regular checking of all fasteners for
correct tightness, and cleaning the entire machine.
FUEL FILTER
The fuel filter should be replaced after every 100 hours of
operation.
The fuel filter is attached to the end of the fuel pick-up hose
inside the tank.
To replace the fuel filter:
1. Make sure the fuel tank is empty.
2. Loosen the fuel tank cap, and pull up and remove the cap
holder.
3. Using a wire hook, gently pull the fuel filter out through the
fuel filler opening.
4. Grasp the fuel hose next to the fuel filter fitting and remove
the filter, but do not release the hose.
5. While still holding on to fuel hose, attach the new fuel filter.
6. Drop the new fuel filter back into the fuel tank.
7. Make sure that the fuel filter is not stuck in a corner of the
tank, and that the fuel hose is not doubled over (kinked)
before refueling.
