7.1.1. CLEANING
Keep the machine clean, especially the area of the
fuel tank and areas close to the air filter.
7.1.2. 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).
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.
Proper maintenance of batteries is essential to ensure
their proper functioning. We give you the following
recommendations to prolong its useful life:
· Recharge the battery regularly: If the machine is
not used frequently, the starter battery may wear out.
Recharge every 3 months approximately for a good
maintenance of this.
· Keep the battery clean: Clean the battery terminals
regularly to prevent dirt build-up and corrosion. You
can use a wire brush or terminal cleaner to clean
them. Once the terminals are clean and dry, apply
a thin layer of Vaseline or dielectric grease to the
terminals. This will help prevent sulfate build up on the
terminals and prevent corrosion.
· Charge the battery correctly: Be sure to charge the
battery with the proper charger.
Perform maintenance frequently as indicated in the
following table:
