4. MAINTENANCE GENERAL INFORMATION Read, understand and follow all safety precautions contained in this manual before performing any inspec- tion or maintenance procedures on this machine, it's systems or components. For the adjustment, disassembling and repair of the engine, reduction gear and electronic equipment (controller, etc.), contact the dealer/distributor.
4. MAINTENANCE GENERAL SAFETY & PRECAUTIONS • Do not attempt any other inspection or maintenance procedures other than those specified in the manual. Carry them out parking the machine at a flat and conveniently situated place. • Do not attempt any MAINTENANCE with engine running. Stop the engine and allow machine to cool to avoid injury.
Page 145
4. MAINTENANCE D. STOP ENGINE Do not attempt any MAINTENANCE with engine run- ning. Always stop the engine and allow machine to cool to avoid injury. Otherwise, there is a possibility of danger that your hand may be caught in the cooling fan or fan belt result- ing injury.
Page 146
4. MAINTENANCE H. WARM ENGINE OIL Engine oil should have a temperature of between 20 to 40°C {68 to 104°F} before the oil is changed. If necessary run engine until the oil is warm within the recommended oil change temperature.
