MAINTENANCE & STORAGE 

 

 

WARNING 

Improper maintenance & storage of the machine may void your warranty. Keep the machine 

clean for better and safer performance. 

Turn off the engine before performing any maintenance. If the engine must be run, make sure 

the area is well ventilated. The exhaust emits dangerous carbon monoxide gases. 

 
MAINTENANCE  

Use only original equipment replacement parts. Other parts may not perform as well, may 
damage the unit and may result in injury. In addition, use of other parts may invalidate your 
warranty. 

 

Before each use, check all nuts & bolts to be sure they are sufficiently tightened. 

 

We recommend only manufacturer original parts are used when maintaining this 

machine. Failure to do so could invalidate your manufacturer’s warranty.

 

 

The engine must be switched off, with the spark plug cap removed, before the machine 
is unassembled, cleaned, serviced or maintained. 

 
SPARK PLUG 

 

Use only original replacement spark plug. For best results, replace the spark plug every 
100 hours of use.  

 

Do not attempt to remove the plug from a hot engine in order to avoid possible damage 
to the threads. 

 

Clean or replace the plug if fouled with heavy oily deposits. Recommended gap of the 
spark plug electrode is 0.70-0.80mm. 

 

Replace the plug if the center electrode is worn or rounded at the end.  

 
LUBRICATION 

 

WHEELS - Lubricate the ball bearings in each wheel at least once a season with a light oil. 

 
ENGINE OIL CHANGE 

 

CAUTION 

Used oil is a hazardous waste product and must be disposed of properly. Do not discard with 

household waste. Check with your local authorities, service center, or dealer for safe 

disposal/recycling facilities. 

 
Drain the oil while the engine is still warm to assure rapid and complete drainage 

 

Remove the dipstick. 

 

Please an approved container below the oil drain plug. 

 

Remove the Oil drain plug and allow oil to the drain into the approved container.  

 

Install Oil drain plug and wrench tighten.  

 

Refill with the recommended oil and check its level as required. 

Oil capacity: See Specification section of this manual. 
Wash your hands with soap and water after touching used oil. 

NOTE:  

Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible with the environment. We 
suggest you put it in a sealed container to your local service for reclamation. Do not throw it 
away into the refuge collection or pour it on the ground or in drains.
