Once the new belts have been properly tensed and
levelled, check that the distance between the axis and
the pulleys is +/- 730mm.
Place the belt cover and place the exit chute back in
place.
Once the belts have been changed, allow the engine
to work for 5 minutes with no load. During this time,
check that the different parts are all screwed correctly
and that there are no strange vibrations.
Now the machine is ready for work.
8.3. CARE AND MAINTENANCE AFTER USE
Carry out the following operations when you have
finished the work to ensure that the machine is kept in
a perfect condition.
8.3.1. CLEANING
Keep the machine clean, especially the area of the
fuel tank and areas close to the air filter.
8.3.2. CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
- Place the machine on a horizontal, uncluttered flat
surface.
- Unscrew the oil filler cap.
- Clean the oil cap dipstick with a cloth.
- Insert the dipstick and screw on the oil cap.
- Unscrew the plug again and check the mark left by
the oil on the dipstick. The mark left by the oil must
be between the minimum and maximum marks.
- If the mark is below the minimum add a little more
oil and recheck.
- If the mark is above the maximum you will have
to remove oil from the crankcase. To do this, tilt
the machine and let out a little oil (put a container
at the end of the tube to prevent oil spilling from
the machine or onto the ground).
8.4. PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Perform regular inspections of the machine in order to
ensure effective operation of the machine and prevent
risk of injury to machine and user. Replacement parts
should be purchased at the official service dealer.
The use of non-official spare parts may cause risk
of accident, injury to the user and scrapping of the
machine.
Perform maintenance frequently as indicated in the
following table:
