DO'S AND DON'TS
DO'S
•
DO check your belt tension - slipping belts cause power loss
•
DO check your 4 engine mounting bolts - loose engine bolts will create loose belt tension
•
DO check your teeth bolts after each use, and torque to 30ft/lbs
•
DO grease your tire axles
•
DO remove the tow bar when grinding
•
DO lift the kick stand when grinding
•
DO change your first oil after 5 hours, then per the engine manual
•
DO use DK2 POWER OEM replacement parts for top performance
DON'TS
•
DON'T grind sand, rocks, or dirt, it will dull or damage your teeth
•
DON'T lift the front end up in the air to work on teeth
• When you have the nose of your grinder up in the air for an extended period of time,
the oil from the oil pan floods the piston cylinder and your cylinder floods. This creates
compression and you can't turn the engine over once this has happened. So, remove
the spark plug, remove both oil caps, this allows air flow. Let it sit for a day (overnight is
best). Replace the oil caps, give it a shot of starting fluid in the spark plug hole, replace
the spark plug. Now start your engine. It will smoke until the oil burns off. You may even
see oil from the muffler until it burns off.
•
DON'T grind anything but stumps
•
DON'T pull on the road - high speed with no grease will damage your rims from heat. Keep
them greased
•
DON'T pull start with the kick stand down
•
DON'T start with your teeth on the ground
