General Operating and
Maintenance Information
Important :
The engine, drive train and differentials on the ice
resurfacer are all new components and special care
must be given to them during their “break-in” period.
Service schedules for machine lubrication and preventative maintenance have been
established on the basis of hourly, daily, weekly and monthly intervals (see 445 Service
Manual). Along with performing regular machine lubrication and preventative maintenance
according to these schedules, it is advised that you have the ice resurfacer and its components
completely checked over periodically by a competent mechanic.
Study should be given to the GM Operating and Service manuals which are furnished with
your ice resurfacer. It would be benecial to have your service person inspect the engine
and drive system so that they may become familiar with the operation for service and repair.
It is also recommended that the new owner contact the local Zamboni Authorized Dealer to
acquaint themselves with the service policy.
Note Regarding the GM Engine:
The engine is equipped with a low oil pressure warning light and an alternator warning
light mounted on the instrument panel. The engine also has a “malfunction indicator light
(MIL)” which warns the operator about engine conditions which may require service. For
more information on the “malfunction indicator light”, see Chapter 4 and Chapter 7.
