MAINTENANCE

Engine Oil Replacement

1.Replace engine oil, first in 25 hours of operation and every 50 to 100 hours afterwards.

2.Drain the engine oil when the oil is warm as shown in Figure 17.

Figure 17. Engine Oil (Draining)

3.Remove the oil drain bolt and sealing washer and allow the oil to drain into a suitable container.

4.Replace engine oil in the oil tank with recommended type oil as listed inTable 4.Engine oil capacity is 1.16 quarts (1.1 liter). DO NOT overfill.

5.Install drain bolt with sealing washer and tighten securely.

Air Filter Cleaning

1.Remove the air cleaner cover and foam filter element as shown in Figure 18.

2.Tapthepaperfilterelement(Figure 18)severaltimesonahard surfacetoremovedirt,orblowcompressedair[notexceeding 30psi(207kPa,2.1kgf/cm2)]throughthefilterelementfromthe air cleaner case side.

CAUTION

NEVER brush off dirt. Brushing will force dirt into the fibers and cause poor performance in your air filter.Replace the paper filter element if it is excessively dirty.

3.Clean foam element in warm, soapy water or nonflammable solvent. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Dip the element in clean engine oil and completely squeeze out the excess oil from the element before installing.

Checking and the V-Belt

After 200 hours of operation, remove the belt cover to check theV- belt tension (Figure 19).

1.Remove the belt cover.

2.Tension is proper if the belt bends about 10 mm when depressed strongly with finger between shafts. Loose or worn V-belts reduces power transmission efficiency, causing weak compaction and reduces the life of the belt itself.

Figure 19. Checking V-belt Tension

CAUTION

NEVER attempt to check theV-belt with the engine running. Severe injury can occur if your hand gets caught between the V-belt and the clutch. Always use safetygloves.

Replacing theV-belt

1.Remove the V-belt cover (Figure 20).

2.Using cutters, simply cut the worn or defective V-belt and discard.

3.Place one end of the new V-belt onto the upper pulley (clutch side).

4.Place a 19 mm offset wrench or the like onto the lower vibrator pulley fastening bolt.

5.Place the other end of the V-belt onto lower vibrator pulley. Rotate offset wrench clockwise so that the V-belt moves onto the lower vibrator pulley.
