Operation
Compakt-Light
Attention!
It is essential to pay attention to the engine manufacturer’s operating manual.
Check the engine oil level before starting. Top up the engine oil if necessary!
Never transport the engine with the fuel tank or the fuel tap open. Refer also to the engine manu-
facturer’s operating manual!
An engine cowling is optionally available for the Robin EX27 and EH41 engines. This cowling
is recommended only for snow hoeing operations. It must be removed for all work in the summer.
You can remove the cowling completely if the air filter has to be cleaned or replaced, or if other
work has to be carried out on the engine. To do this you must remove the three wing nuts (see fig.
9 right) on the starter and the two wing nuts on the steering shaft baseplate.
When changing the spark plug you can also tilt the side cover (see fig. 9 left) by removing the
two upper wing nuts and loosening the two lower wing nuts. Afterwards, tighten all wing nuts
firmly again.
For summer operation you should remove the side cover completely so that the engine cooling
can work optimally.
The engines are cooled by a fan. The cooling air sieve on the starter and the cooling fins of the
cylinder should therefore always be kept free of dirt and any vegetation that has been drawn in.
Attention!
Always switch the engine off for cleaning!
Important!
