- 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).
7.2. 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:
Operation
Check that there are no
loose parts
Check the oil level
Change the engine oil
Clean the air filter
Grease bearings
Belt tension
Check spark plug
7.2.1. AIR FILTER
The dirt in the air cleaner will cause a reduction in the
performance of the machine. Check and clean this
element. If you notice damage or alterations to the
filter, replace it with a new one.
The foam filter can be cleaned in the following way:
- Remove the protective cap from the filter.
- Remove the filter.
- Clean the filter with soapy water.
- Rinse the filter with clean water.
- Dry the filter.
- Once dry, moisten it with 2 drops of oil (if you wet
the filter with too much oil the machine cannot
start).
- Install the filter on the machine.
- Put on the protective cap.
Note: The engine should never function without
the air filter installed.
