Machine Maintenance - Ecotech CLH Cable Layer NT 60 Manuel D'utilisation Et De Maintenance

H. The cutter, with its relative activation lever properly engaged, does not turn:
•
check whether the belt is worn.
•
check whether the belt has come off the pulleys.
•
make sure that the lever is able to provide the belt with adequate traction.
I. The cutter, with its relative activation lever disengaged, continues to turn:
• check whether the pulley brake is engaged. If this is not the case, remove the cover and loosen the adjustment
until the brake lining makes contact with the edge of the pulley.
•
check whether the brake lining has been consumed.
J. The machine does not perform properly: check
•
whether the cutter is excessively worn.
•
that the cutter is installed and that it is not broken.
•
whether the air filter (see the motor's manual) is obstructed, resulting in a significant decrease in motor power.
If this is the case, clean it with compressed air or replace it with a new air filter supplied by your trusted
reseller.
•
whether the fuel tank is almost empty.
•
whether the motor oil level is below its minimum level (fig.1 no.11).
K. With the advancement lever properly engaged, the machine does not move:
•
if the advancement mechanism's wire is too loose, adjust it using the appropriate regulator (fig.1 no.5).
•
check whether the transmission belts are excessively worn.
•
check whether the chain is broken or too loose.
•
check whether the clutch disks inside the gearbox are excessively worn.
L. The machine is abnormally difficult to steer:
• check whether the handle (fig.11 no.1) is loose.
M. The cutter's support does not slide, thereby impeding the replacement of the cutter itself:
• Clean the mechanism and remove any residues present. (See the section entitled "CLEANING AND MAINTAINING
THE CUTTER SUPPORT").
• Make sure that no rust has formed within the system after a certain period of use. (See the section entitled
"CLEANING AND MAINTAINING THE CUTTER SUPPORT").
NEVER MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENTS TO THE WIRE REGULATORS IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THEIR PURPOSE! SUCH
OPERATIONS COULD COMPROMISE THE MACHINE'S PROPER FUNCTION!
MACHINE MAINTENANCE
During long periods of machine downtime it is a good idea to: clean and lubricate the cutter support (see the section
entitled "CLEANING AND MAINTAINING THE CUTTER SUPPORT"); empty the fuel tank (fig.1 no.1); lubricate the cylinder
with an appropriate lubricant supplied by your reseller; clean the air filter (see the motor's manual); empty the
carburettor bowl of any residual fuel; lubricate any of the machine's painted parts which have been scratched or dented,
as well as any of its galvanised parts, in order to prevent the formation of rust; dry any wet portions of the machine. The
use of a pressure washer is absolutely not recommended.
For any maintenance operations to be performed upon the motor, please follow the indications provided in the motor's
manual, which comes supplied with the machine.
It is generally a good idea to check the level of the motor oil after every 8 hours of use and to clean the air filter after
every 4 hours of use. These operations should be performed more frequently if working in extremely dusty
environments. Never force the machine's motor; if white smoke comes out of the exhaust, slow down.
