• Turn the shaft slowly counter-clockwise until the
drive axles stop rotating backwards and make a
mark on the transmission housing (RS).
• Turn the shaft slowly counter-clockwise until the
drive axles begin rotating forwards.
• Turn the shaft slowly clockwise until the drive
axles stop rotating forwards and make a mark on
the transmission housing (FS).
• Turn the shaft clockwise 1/3 of the distance
between the two marked stop points.
• Hold the shaft still (N=8) and tighten the lock nut
(N=17).
• Make sure that the drive axles do not rotate in
the neutral position by slowly moving the ma-
noeuvre arm to the neutral position from the
forwards and backwards positions.
If the drive axles do not rotate backwards despite
the fact that the hexagonal shaft has rotated a full
revolution, the neutral position is to be adjusted in
the following manner:
• Turn the shaft slowly counter-clockwise until the
drive axles begin rotating forwards.
• Turn the shaft slowly clockwise until the drive
axles stop rotating forwards and make a mark on
the transmission housing (FS) and shaft.
• Turn the shaft clockwise 8° from the mark on the
transmission housing.
• Hold the shaft still (N=8) and tighten the lock nut
(N=17).
Maintaining the Transmission
Oil Change
Most homeowners with gardens do not have the
tools or experience needed to change the transmis-
sion oil. The transmission probably has a longer life
than the rider itself, which means that being able to
change the oil is not of major concern to the aver-
age consumer. The lifespan of the transmission
increases, however, if the oil is changed.
If the rider is used
commercially
, we recommend
changing the oil first after 50 hours of use and then
every 300 hours.
The K 46 transmission holds 2.2 litres (SAE10W/30
engine oil, class SF-CC).
No oil change is required for manual transmissions.
