LUBRICATION

12/12 Each year
1/52 Each Week
1/365 Each day
General
Remove the ignition key to prevent unintentional
movements during lubrication.
When lubricating with an oil can, it must be filled
with engine oil. When lubricating with grease,
unless otherwise stated, use a high grade
molybdenum disulphide grease.
For daily use, the machine must be lubricated
twice weekly. Clean away unwanted grease after
lubrication.
It is important to prevent lubricant from getting on
the belts or the drive surfaces of the belt pulleys.
If this happens, try to clean them with spirits. If
the belt continues to slip after cleaning, the belt
must be replaced. Gasoline or other petroleum
products must not be used to clean belts.

IMPORTANT Use minimal lubrication and
remove excess lubricant so that is does not
come into contact with belts or belt pulley drive
surfaces.
Warning! Escaping hydraulic oil under
pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate
the skin, causing dangerous injury. If injured
by escaping fluid, see a doctor immediately.
Dangerous infection or reaction can develop if
proper medical treatment is not administered.
IMPORTANT Check the engine oil level again
if the engine runs over four hours in a day. Do
not operate the engine with the oil level below
the ADD mark or over the FULL mark.
