m If the adjustment bolt has no more adjustment
left, the tracks may haveto be replaced.
Replacing tracks
Check the condition of the tracks periodically. If any
track is cracked or frayed, it should be replaced as
soon as convenient.
1. Dismount the dump box.
2. Let the tracks loose enough.
3. Replace the tracks in such a way as illustrated
in the figure.
4. Adjust the tracks to correct tightness.
5. Mount the dump box.
m When removing or installing the tracks, be
careful not to get your fingers caught between
the track and pulley.
Adjusting clutch
As clutch wears out, the same lever could have a
wider opening, being so uneasy to use. This means
that it is necessary to adjust the cable, setting clutch
lever on its original position acting on the adjustment
device and on counter-nut.
Adjusting steering
If you have difficulty steering the unit, you will need
to adjust the steering levers (3) + (5) with the special
adjusters. Slacken off the locknut and unscrew the
adjusters to eliminate the play in the cable, which
can occur after initial use or normal wear. Be very
careful not to unscrew the adjusters too much be-
cause this can create another problem: the loss of
traction. Remember to tighten the locknut when you
have finished.

Lubrication

The gearbox is pre-lubricated and sealed at the fac-
tory.
Oil changes (fig. 8)
Changing the transmission oil
The oil must be replaced every 1000 hours with the
engine still warm. If necessary leave the engine run-
ning for a short time.

Engine Oil
Check the oil level before each use. Remove the oil
dipstick (12) and check the machine in horizontal
position that the oil level is between the two marks.
If necessary, add oil.
Changing the engine oil
The oil must be replaced every 50 hours. For this the
motor must be warm and stopped. For this run en-
gine for a short time. Afterwards drain oil into a suit-
able container. For this purpose remove the dipstick
and the oil drain plug. Maybe take a suitable hose
or tube to help. After the oil has been completely
drained mount the oil drain plug again, fill in new oil
and close the oil filler cap.
Recommended engine oil
SAE 10W-30 or SAE 10W-40 (depending on appli-
cation temperature).
Dispose of waste oil properly at the local used oil
collection point. It is forbidden to discharge waste oil
into the ground or mixed with other waste.
