MAINTENANCE
HULK PETROL
Regular maintenance is essential to keep your
machine and its accessories in serviceable condition.
We recommend that only competent operators who
have experience in servicing and maintaining petrol
engines attempt these procedures. If in doubt have
the machine serviced at an Evolution approved
Service Centre.
1. Engine oil replacement
Engine oil should be replaced after the initial
‘running in’ period and at the intervals specified
in the Service Schedule.
Note: Engine oil is easier to replace when the engine
has been run up to temperature and the oil is warm.
