7.2.3 Changing the oil and checking the oil
level (before using the machine)
The motor oil is best changed when the motor is
at working temperature and the tiller is on a flat
surface with the motor level.
n Use only engine oil (10W30).
n Take out the dip stick (Fig. 24 / Item A).
n Open the drain screw (Fig. 24 / Item B)
and allow the warm oil to drain into a drip tray.
n Close the drain screw again when all the
waste oil has been drained.
n Fill up with engine oil as far as the top
mark on the dip stick (Fig. 25/H).
n Important: Do not screw the dip stick
when you check the oil level, simply insert
it as far as the thread (H = Max. / L= Min.).
n Dispose of the waste oil properly.
7.2.4 Adjusting the Bowden wires
In the working setting it should be possible to push the
clutch lever up to the push bar without this requiring
much effort. If the Bowden wire is too taut for this, it must
be extended. To do this, undo the lock nut opposite
the main cable, extend the screw connector and then
tighten the lock nut again (see Fig. 17/A). If the star-type
tiller blades no longer rotate then the screw connector
will have to be shortened again (as described above).
7.2.5 Power cultivator gearing
The gear unit is driven by a V-belt. The gear unit
can be repaired if this should become necessary.
If repairs are necessary, please contact our UK
customer service centre - 0151 649 1500.
7.3 Storage
Pull the fuel tap lever to the `OFF’ position (Lever
pointing away from the engine). (Fig. 1/Item A) and
empty the fuel tank before you decommission the
unit for a lengthy period of time. Clean the unit.
