LUBRICATION

Lubricating the belt adjuster

The belt adjuster should be lubricated regularly
using good quality molybdenum disulphide
grease*.
1 nipple from the right-hand side under the engine’s
lower belt pulley, until grease is forced out.
With daily use lubrication should be conducted
twice a week.

General lubrication

All joints and bearings are lubricated on
manufacture with molybdenum sulphide grease.
Re-grease with same type of grease*. Lubricate the
steering and control wires with engine oil.
The machine should be lubricated regularly, and
twice a week when used daily.
* Grease from well-known brand names (petrol
companies, etc.) usually maintains a good quality.
The most important property is that the grease
provides good protection against corrosion.

Check the transmission’s oil level

1. Remove the transmission cover. Loosen both
screws (one on each side) and lift off the trans-
mission cover.
2. Check that there is oil in the transmission’s oil
tank. Fill if necessary with engine oil SAE 10W/
30 (class SF–CC).

Change of oil filter

Replace oil filter every 200 operating hours. Drain
oil first using the plug on the filter base. Remove
the old filter using an oil filter tool. Lightly coat
rubber gasket with new oil, then install filter by
turning it to the right until hand tight. Tighten the
filter an additional 1/2 turn. Check that the drain
plug is reinstalled before starting the engine.
Start engine and check for leakage.
