ENGINE MAINTENANCE

Take into account that it is necessary to carefully read the use
and maintenance handbook of the engine. However, here is
some practical advice:
Check the level of oil in the engine at least once a month, using
the dipstick. Top up using the oil indicated on the instruction
handbook
NOTE: the engine oil must be replaced after the first 20 hours of
work or in any case within a month.
It is then sufficient to replace it every 100 hours of work or within
8 months.
To replace the oil in the engine, proceed as follows:
- Remove the right hand side casing of the machine by loosening
the fixing screws.
- Gain access to the oil drainage pipe.
- Unscrew the dipstick.
- Take the cap off the drainage pipe and let the exhaust oil drain
out.
NOTE: oil should preferably be drained when the engine is hot.
Pour in new oil of the type and in the quantity indicated on the
use and maintenance manual of the engine. Use only SAE 15/
49 multigrade oil which ensures effective lubrication at an
ambient temperature ranging from –15°C to over 40°C.

AIR FILTER OF THE ENGINE
Check the state of the engine's air filter regularly.
If necessary, wash the sponge (pre-filter) with water and soap
or a standard household detergent.
Rinse and dry.
When necessary, replace the air filter of the engine.
Refit the filter and cover.
Clean the fuel filter regularly.
Before carrying out any of the above operations, consult the
use and maintenance handbook of the engine.
The OIL ALARM error code informs users, every 100 hours of
work, that the oil of the endothermic engine needs to be replaced
(this function is active in D.P. versions only). Press the key on the
left hand side of the display twice and the partial hour meter of
the endothermic engine will appear. This is a four-digit display:
the first digit on the left (0-9 range) and the three remaining
digits display the actual hours of work of the engine. When the
engine has been running for 100 hours, the message "Oil" starts
flashing on the display. This means that the oil must be replaced
(see the maintenance chapter in the engine handbook). After
replacing the oil, users must reset the hour meter (see the
maintenance chapter in the engine handbook), as described
below:
A) press the key on the left hand side of the display once to call
up the voltmeter;
B) press the key once again to display the total hour meter;
C) press the key once more and hold it down for at least 5
seconds to reset the partial hour meter. The first digit on the
display increases by one unit, so that the operator will know
how many times oil has been replaced.
N.B.: if the oil is not replaced, the buzzer will go off five times
every time the machine is turned on and the message "Oil" will
start flashing on the display. The "Oil" message disappears when
the key on the left hand side of the display is pressed and the
voltmeter comes up on the display.
