3.Wash the pre-filter (foam rubber) in liquid de- tergent and water. Then carefully twist the filter out and allow to dry.

4.When the pre-filter is dry, reinstall the filter in reverse order.

The filters must be replaced if very dirty or defec- tive.

7.3 Spark plug

See the accompanying engine manual.

The sparkplug must be replaced in the following cases.

When the electrodes are burnt.

If the porcelain insulator indicates damage.

If the rotary cultivator is difficult to start.

The electrode gap should be 0.7-0.8 mm.

Use sparkplug Champion QC12YC or similar.

7.4 Changing the oil

Change the oil the first time after 2 hours of oper- ation, and subsequently every 25 hours of opera- tion or at least once a season. Change oil when the engine is warm.

The engine oil may be very hot if it is drained off directly after the engine is shut off. So allow the engine to cool a few minutes before draining the oil.

1.Unscrew the cap for oil filling/oil draining. See “4.8”.

2.Place a container on the floor.

3.Tilt the machine so that the hole is above the container. See fig. 8.

3.Let the oil run out into the container.

5.Fill with new oil: See “5.2”.

7.5 Cleaning

Never use high-pressure washing equip- ment when cleaning. This can cause wa- ter to penetrate between the seals and cause machine damage.

First brush off all dirt. Then wipe down the rotary cultivator using a damp cloth. The underside can be washed with water.

7.6 Fault-tracing
