Switch off the combustion engine and remove the spark
plug cap:
▪ Whenever you have to adjust or assemble the tines;
▪ Before lifting, loading or transporting the machine;
▪ Before the equipment is inspected, cleaned or before a
repair tasks are carried out;
▪ If it hits a foreign object. Check the appliance, especially
the tines and the drive shaft. Make sure there is no
damage. If any, carry out the necessary repairs before
turning on the tiller;
▪ If the tiller vibrates excessively and abnormally. Detect
the cause of the malfunction immediately and make the
necessary repairs. Strong vibrations usually indicate a
malfunction.
The tiller must not be operated with a bent drive shaft or
damaged farming attachable equipment.
If you lack the necessary knowledge, have the petrol tiller
repaired by a specialist.
Before start cleaning, adjustment, repair and maintenance
tasks:
▪ Place the tiller in a solid and flat surface;
▪ Turn off the combustion engine and let it cool down;
▪ Remove the spark plug cap.
Keep the spark plug cap away from the spark plug
itself, as an inadvertent ignition spark can cause
burns or electric shocks. Unintentional contact of the spark
plug with the spark plug cap can cause the combustion
engine to start unintentionally.
To clean or service the tiller, just lean it back. If the machine
is turned sideways or forward, damage to the combustion
engine and other parts of the tiller may occur, which may
cause costly repairs.
Allow the tiller to cool down in particular before
carrying out maintenance work on the drive system,
combustion engine, exhaust manifold and muffler.
Temperatures of 80°C or even higher can be reached.
Direct contact with engine oil can be dangerous, moreover,
engine oil must not be spilled.
VITO recommends leaving the filling or changing of the
engine oil to a specialist.
Frequently check the equipment, especially before storage
(for example, before the winter period), regarding wear and
damages.
For safety reasons, replace worn out or damaged parts
immediately so the unit is always in perfect operating
conditions.
Cleaning:
In order to avoid fire hazards, the ventilation slots and
exhaust must remain completely clean and free of any
debris.
The tiller must be carefully cleaned after each use. Remove
the debris inlaid with a wooden splint.
The lower part of the machine can be cleaned with a high-
pressure washer or a steam washer. Keep a minimum
distance of 1m and never point water jets directly to the
support/holders and sealing gaskets, in particular, the
sealing gasket between the transmission crankcase and
the guard plate.
Do not use aggressive cleaning products. These products
may damage plastics and metals, compromising the safe
operation of the tiller.
Maintenance:
Only maintenance works described in this instruction
manual may be carried out, all other works must be
performed by an official dealer.
If you lack the necessary knowledge and resources, you
should always ask an official dealer.
Use only VITO-approved accessories for this petrol tiller or
technically identical parts. Failure to do so may result in
personal injuries or damages to the petrol tiller. If
necessary, they should be replaced by an official dealer.
For safety reasons, the fuel system components (hose, tap,
tank, tank cap and couplings) should be inspected
regularly regarding damage and leaks. If necessary, they
should be replaced by an official dealer.
