Maintenance

Replacement of fuel filter

Replace the fuel filter every 100 running hours (once per season) or more frequently if it is clogged.

Replace the filter as follows:

1Open the engine cover.

2Move the hose clips away from the filter. Use a pair of flat pliers.

3Pull off the filter from the hose ends.

4Press the new filter into the ends of the hoses. If necessary apply liquid detergent to the ends of the filter to facilitate connection.

5Push the hose clips back on the filter and tighten.

Checking the fuel pump’s air filter

Check regularly that the fuel pump’s air filter is free from dirt.

The filter can when necessary be cleaned with a brush.

Checking the tyre pressure

The tyre pressure should be 60 kPa / 0.6 bar / 9 PSI on all wheels. In order to improve drive power, the pressure in the rear tyres can be reduced to 40 kPa / 0.4 bar / 6 PSI.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION Different tyre pressures on the front tyres will result in the blades cutting the grass at different heights.

When refilling, only distilled water may be used to fill the cells.
