Starting And Stopping - KPC KL 310-3V Libro De Uso Y Mantenimiento

Whenever you are starting the engine of the machine, follow these instructions very carefully:
•
Check the engine oil level: A BRAND NEW MACHINE IS DELIVERED WITHOUT OIL IN THE ENGINE, THEREFORE YOU SHOULD FILL IT UP TO THE
LEVEL ON THE DIP STICK OF THE OIL CUP.
•
Please read carefully on the booklet the ENGINE USE AND MAINTENANCE concerning the "operations before starting".
•
Start the engine only in open spaces.
CLUTCH LEVER PROVIDED WITH SAFETY DEVICE (see picture 6b)
•
Lever ("A") pulled: to get the lever working release the safety device ("B"), now the clutch is engaged (the tiller moves forward or backwards
depending on the engaged gear)
•
Lever ("B") released: clutch lever disengaged (the tiller stops).
1. Pull the choke lever (Pict.5 Ref. "A").
2. Turn the throttle lever to the "MAX" position (Pict. 6a Ref. "B"). The switch (Ref. "A" Pict.6a) must be "ON".
3. The clutch lever (Pict. 6b Position "A") must be disengaged.
4. Pull the starting rope by the handle (Pict. 5 Ref. "B"), firstly smoothly and then strongly: when you feel some resistance don't leave the
handle but help the recoiling of the rope with your hand.
5. When the engine runs move the choke lever to the initial position and the throttle lever in the mid-position (Pict. 6a Ref. "B").
6. To stop the engine move the switch to the "OFF" position (Fig.6a Ref."A").
•
The tiller is equipped with a mechanical transmission that allows two forward speeds and one reverse.
•
When the machine is standstill to move forward simply engage the gear lever (Pict.7 Ref. "A") in the first or in the second speed (Pict.7 Ref. "B")
and then press down completely the lever (Pict.6b Ref. "A") to start the movement.
•
When the machine is standstill to move backwards engage the gear lever (Pict.7 Ref. "A") in the position "R" (Pict.7 Ref. "B") and then press
down completely the lever (Pict.6b Ref. "A") to start the movement.
• The clutch cable must be adjusted in a way that allows the belt to be put under tension when the lever is situated at about 1 cm from the knob.
To this purpose you have to regulate the register of the cable next to the lever (Ref. "B" Pict.6).
•
When the lever (Pict.6b Ref. "A") is released the machine stops immediately while the engine is running.
•
The handlebar can be adjusted by unscrewing the blocking lever (Pict.6 Ref. "C"). Adjust the handlebar in the desired position and then lock it
again.
•
The tiller is 80 cm wide, it is composed by 3 knives + protection plate on both sides. It can be reduced to 60 cm by removing one blade from
each sides (see picture 2).
•
The sharp side of the blades must be turned towards the front side of the machine.
•
We recommend to use the tiller with the side plates because they improve the stability of the machine while working.
•
The machine can fit an adjustable ridger which is an optional accessory delivered complete with its own support which should be fitted on the
handlebar holder replacing the standard spur and using the same bolt.
CAUTION: IT IS ADVICED NOT TO KEEP THE MOTOR RUNNING WHEN THE MACHINE IS NOT BEING USED FOR ITS
SPECIFICAL PURPOSE.
SPUR ADJUSTMENT
To get an optimal tilling work and a right advancement of the tiller adjust the spur as shown in picture 8, this adjustment has to be done on both
sides of the machine:
− Adjustment for hard soils: loosen nut and screw (A) and lift the spur as to shift back the weight of the machine.
− Adjustment for soft soils: loosen nut and screw (A) and lower the spur as to move the weight of the machine towards the blades axle.
To enable the tiller to move slightly sideways during the tilling work, the spur holder arm (B) can be adjusted horizontally as follows:
g. loosen the nut (C) and adjust the screw (D) as desired, then tighten the nut again. By tightening the screw (D) the spur can move sideways.
h. carry out the same adjustment also on the other side of the arm.
