DiamaPro Systems DPBRN27-X+ - Standards of Use

12. STANDARDS OF USE
BEFORE EVERY USE:
Before every use, perform the following checking procedures in order to assure regular operation.
CHECK THE OIL LEVEL:
See the specic chapter for the oil to be used.
a) Place the engine level.
b) Clean around oil ll.
c) Unscrew the cap, clean the end of the dipstick and insert it, as illustrated, without screwing it down.
d) Remove the cap with the dipstick and check the oil level that must be between “MIN” and “MAX” marks.
e) If oil is required, add oil of the same kind up to the “MAX” mark, being careful not to spill any outside the oil ll.
f) Fully tighten the ller cap and wipe o󰀨 any spilled oil.
CHECK THE AIR CLEANER:
The e󰀩ciency of the air lter is fundamental for the engine to work properly. Do not start the engine if the ltering element is missing or broken.
a) Clean around the lter cover.
b) Open the clips of the two sides of the air lter cover.
c) Check the condition of the ltering element. It must be intact, clean and in perfect working order; if not, either carry out maintenance or replace it.
d) Put the cover back.
LONG STORAGE (OVER 30 DAYS):
In case the engine has to be stored for a long time (for example at the end of the season), a few precautions are needed to help the future start-up.
a) To prevent the formation of deposits inside the tank, empty it of fuel by unscrewing the carburettor oat chamber plug and collecting all the fuel in a
suitable container. At the end of the operation remember to screw the plug back on and fully tighten it.
b) Remove the spark plug and pour about 3 cl of clean engine oil into the spark plug hole, then, having blocked the hole with a rag, run the starter motor
briey to turn the engine for a few revs and distribute the oil over the inner surface of the cylinder. Finally replace the spark plug without connecting
the cable cap.
These troubleshooting steps are specic for propane fuel system issues. For other engine issues, refer to the Engine Operator Manual and/or OEM Equipment Manual.
