44 REGULAR CHECKS AND MAINTENANCE WORK
BChecking the Radiator Hoses
To avoid personal injury:
A Wait long enough for the radiator
coolant to cool down.
Check the water hoses are properly attached.
This check should be carried out every 200
hours or every 6 months, whichever comes first.
1. Should the hose clamps be loose or water
leak, tighten the hose clamps properly.
2. Should the radiator hoses be swollen, aged
or cracked, they must be replaced and the
hose clamps tightened again properly.
BReplacing Engine Oil Filter (First
Engine Oil Filter Change after 50
Service Hours)
1. Remove the cartridge with the supplied filter
wrench.
2. Oil the O-ring of the new oil filter cartridge
lightly. Then tighten the oil filter cartridge by
hand.
3. Fill engine oil to the specified level.
4. Let the engine run for approx. 5 min. and
make sure that the engine oil control lamp
does not light up. Then stop the engine.
5. The engine oil level will sink parallel to the oil
filter capacity after the engine is started. It is
necessary to add oil.
A Always check the oil level when replacing
the filter.
BInspection and Cleaning of the Air
Filter Element
Open the engine hood and remove the dust-
cover. Take out only outer element, clean the
element, case interior and reassemble. During
reassembly, take care to install the dust-cover
so that its TOP mark (arrow) faces upwards. Do
not remove the inner element.
A Should the machine be used in extremely
dusty areas, the air filter element must be
inspected and cleaned more frequently than
in the specified maintenance periods.
A The air filter has a dry element, keep free
from oil.
A Do not run the engine without the air filter.
