Reparation instructions

Changing the oil

The engine oil should be replaced after the first five hours of running time, see service chart. Thereafter it should be replaced every 50 hours of running time (25 hours in harsh operating conditions).

WARNING!

Engine oil can be very hot if it is drained off directly after the engine is stopped. Therefore allow the engine to cool down first.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Spent engine oil is hazardous to health and must not be poured out on the gro- und or in the nature, but should be handed in to a designated place for recycling.

Avoid skin contact and wash any spillage with soap and water.

Checking and adjusting steering wires

1

Remove the frame plate by releasing the screws (two on either side).

2

Ensure that the cables are properly situated under the steering cable pulleys in the frame tunnel.

The tension is checked by squeezing together the wires (as shown in the diagram). Without having to apply too much force, the wires should be able to be squeezed to half the distance between them.

Change the cable if it has a damaged strand causing loose threads to protrude.

Drain plug on Rider 16

Tip! When draining the engine oil use a folded piece of cardboard to funnel the oil into the contai- ner.

Place a container under the drain plug on the left side of the engine.

Remove the dipstick and drain plug. Let the oil drain into the container.

Refit the drain plug and tighten it.

Fill with oil up to the “FULL” mark on the dipstick. Pour the oil into the same hole the dipstick goes in. Filling procedure, see ”Delivery measures\Checking the engine’s oil level”. Use engine oil as set out in the ”Specifications” chapter.

Run the engine until warm, then check that there are no oil leaks from the drain plug.

3

Hold the wire so it does not twist.

Stretch the wires by tightening the adjuster nuts (one wire on each side of the ride-on mower). Do not overtension them, they should only be tighte- ned up to the steering rim. Stretch both wires equally so that the steering wheel position is not changed.

Check the wire tension as set out in point 2 after you have made the adjustment.
