• Turn the fuel valve lever (15) contrary to the posi-
tion .
m NOTE
Do not move choke control (16) to stop engine. Back-
fire or engine damage may occur.
9. Maintenance
A proper maintenance and lubrication will help the
machine in a perfect working condition.
Preventive maintenance
m WARNING
Turn off engine and disengage all command levers.
Engine must be cool. Disconnect the spark plug cap
(25) from the spark plug (13) (see Fig. 15).
Inspect the general condition of the unit. Check for
loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving
parts, cracked or broken parts, and any other condi-
tion that may affect its safe operation.
Remove all debris and other materials that may have
accumulated to the wheels and unit. Clean after each
use. Then use a premium quality lightweight machine
oil to lubricate all moving parts.
m Never use a "pressure washer" to clean your
unit. Water can penetrate tight areas of the ma-
chine and its transmission case and cause dam-
age to spindles, gears, bearings, or the engine.
The use of pressure washers will result in short-
ened life and reduce serviceability.
Adjusting clutch (Fig. 16)
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 (26) and on counter-nut (27).
Adjusting steering (Fig. 17)
If you have difficulty steering the unit, you will need
to adjust the steering levers (3) + (5) with the special
adjusters (26).
Slacken off the locknut (27) and unscrew the adjust-
ers (26) to eliminate the play in the cable, which can
occur after initial use or normal wear. Be very care-
ful not to unscrew the adjusters (26) too much be-
cause this can create another problem: the loss of
traction. Remember to tighten the locknut (27) when
you have finished.
Lubrication
The gearbox is pre-lubricated and sealed at the fac-
tory.

Oil changes
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.
• Place a suitable container with a minimum of 2 li-
tre capacity under the oil drain plug (see Fig. 12
Pos. 28).
• First, open the oil drain plug (28) and then the oil
filler neck (29) and leave the entire engine oil flow
(Fig. 13).
• Close the oil drain plug (28) again.
• fill 1,62 litres of clean transmission oil into the oil
filler neck (29). To do this, use a gear oil pump with
hose. Insert the hose through the opening in the
oil filler neck (see Fig. 13).
Engine Oil
Check the oil level before each use. Remove the oil
dipstick (23) 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
engine for a short time. Afterwards drain oil into a
suitable container. For this purpose remove the dip-
stick (Fig. 18 pos. 23) and the oil drain plug (Fig. 18
pos. 22). Maybe take a suitable hose or tube to help.
After the oil has been completely drained mount the
oil drain plug (22) again, fill in new oil and close the
oil filler cap (23).
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.
Important hint in case of sending the equipment
to a service station:
In case of delivery, please note that the unit must be
free of oil and fuel to ensure safe shipment.
Air filter
Frequently cleaning of the air filter prevents carbure-
tor malfunction.
Clean the air filter and change air filter inserts
• The air filter (Fig. 20/Pos. 14) should be cleaned
every 30 hours.
• Remove the air filter cover (Fig. 19/Pos. A) by loos-
ening the thumbscrew (Fig. 19/Pos. B1)
• Loosen the thumb screw (Fig. 20 / Pos. B2) and
remove the air filter (Fig. 20/Pos. 14)
