NOTE: the engine oil must be replaced after the rst 20 hours of work
or in any case within a month.
It is then sucient to replace it every 100 hours of work or within 8
months.
To replace the oil in the engine, proceed as follows:
- Remove the right hand side casing of the machine by loosening
the xing screws.
- Gain access to the oil drainage pipe.
- Unscrew the dipstick.
- Take the cap o the drainage pipe and let the exhaust oil drain
out.
NOTE: oil should preferably be drained when the engine is hot.
Pour in new oil of the type and in the quantity indicated on the
use and maintenance manual of the engine. Use only SAE 15/49
multigrade oil which ensures eective lubrication at an ambient
temperature ranging from –15°C to over 40°C.
AIR FILTER OF THE ENGINE
Check the state of the engine’s air lter regularly.
If necessary, wash the sponge (pre-lter) with water and soap or a
standard household detergent.
Rinse and dry.
When necessary, replace the air lter of the engine.
Ret the lter and cover.
Clean the fuel lter regularly.
Before carrying out any of the above operations, consult the use and
maintenance handbook of the engine.
“OIL CHANGE” ALARM CODE
The OIL ALARM error code informs users, every 100 hours of work,
that the oil of the endothermic engine needs to be replaced (this
function is active in D.P. versions only). By pressing the key on the
right of the display twice the endothermic engine partial working
hour counter appears. This is a four-digit display: the rst digit on
the left (0-9 range) and the three remaining digits display the actual
hours of work of the engine. When the engine has been running for
100 hours, the message “Oil change” starts ashing on the display. This
means that the oil must be replaced (see the maintenance chapter in
the engine handbook). After replacing the oil, users must reset the
hour meter (see the maintenance chapter in the engine handbook),
as described below:
A) press the key to the right of the display once to view the partial
hour counter
B) press the key to the right of the display again for at least ve
seconds (the partial hour counter will be reset) The rst digit on the
display increases by one unit, so that the operator will know how
many times oil has been replaced.
N.B.: If the engine oil is not replaced, every time the machine is
switched on the operator will hear ve acoustic warning signals,and
on the display the wording “OIL CHANGE” will ash. The wording
will disappear by pressing the key to the right of the display: in this
way the display will return to the voltmeter and total hour counter
screen.
ENGINE MAINTENANCE
Take into account that it is necessary to carefully read the use and
maintenance handbook of the engine. However, here is some practical
advice:
Check the level of oil in the engine at least once a month, using
the dipstick. Top up using the oil indicated on the instruction
handbook
