(1)
Replace the oil every 25 hours if the engine is working at full load or at high temperatures.
*
(2)
Clean the air lter more often if the machine is working in dusty areas.
For the operations that are not difcult for the nal
user the assistance centre must maintain the mo-
tor in perfect efciency, in accordance with two
intervention lines:
- Tuning the engine whenever possible.
- Recommending the client a routine maintenan-
ce program at set intervals (e.g. at the end of
the season or before a long period of inactivity).
4.2. Engine tuning program
As part of general engine tuning or any intervention
on the machine, it is recommended that the Service
Centre performs a series of operations aimed at
maintaining the engine’s efciency.
Tuning should involve:
- external blowing and cleaning the cylinder
head, cylinder and mufer by removing any
remains of grass and mud;
- checking the oil level, topping up or replacing
parts if necessary;
- cleaning the air lter [
5.1];
- adjusting minimum and maximum speeds [
7.3 and 8.4];
- inspecting the condition of the spark plug; che-
cking the distance between the electrodes [
9.1];
- tightening the screws [
11.2];
- functional test [ 4.3].
Should the checks and adjustments fail to achieve
a satisfactory result, refer to chapter [ 14] for
troubleshooting.
