5. Check for loose or damaged parts. Repair or re-
place damaged parts and tighten loose bolts or
nuts.
6. Store your machine on a level floor in a clean, dry
building with good ventilation.
m Do not store the machine with fuel in an unventi-
lated area where it can reach fuel vapours, flames,
sparks, pilot flames or other ignition sources.
14. Maintenance
m Attention!
Always shut the engine down and remove the spark
plug connector before carrying out any maintenance
work.
Proper maintenance and lubrication will help keep the
machine in proper working condition.
14.1 Servicing
1. Check the general condition of the machine.
Check for loose screws, misalignment or jamming
of moving parts, part breakages and other condi-
tions that could impair safe operation.
2. Remove all foreign objects and other materials
that have collected on the chain and on the unit.
Clean the machine after every use. Then use a
high-quality, low-viscosity machine oil to lubricate
all moving parts.
3. Take care of the machine. Check for misalignment
or jamming of moving parts, part breakages and
other conditions that could impair operation of the
machine. In the event of damage, have the ma-
chine repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained machines.
4. Keep the engine and silencer free of grass,
leaves, excess grease or soot encrustation to re-
duce a fire hazard.
5. Never spray the machine with water or other liq-
uids. Keep the handles dry, clean and free of con-
tamination. Clean the machine after every use.
6. Observe the relevant laws and regulations for the
disposal of fuel, oil, etc. to protect the environ-
ment.
7. Ensure that the machine is out of the reach of
children when it is at a standstill and only allow
instructed persons to operate the machine. The
machine is dangerous in the hands of untrained
operators

m Never use a high-pressure cleaner to clean
your machine. Water can penetrate sealed areas
of the machine and the transmission housing and
cause damage to spindles, gear wheels, bearings
or the engine. The use of high-pressure cleaners
shortens the service life and reduces the ease of
maintenance.
14.2 Adjusting the clutch
The clutch play changes with the wear of the clutch.
To enable proper operation, the clutch cable must be
adjusted.
1. Set the clutch lever (4) to the original position using
the adjuster.
2. To do this, tighten the counternut with an open-end
spanner size 10 mm (not included in the scope of
delivery) until the clutch builds up the correct pres-
sure on the belt (thumb pressure).
14.3 Adjusting the steering
If you have difficulty steering the dumper, readjust the
steering levers (3) and (5) with the adjuster.
1. Loosen the counternut with an open-ended span-
ner size 14 mm (not included in the scope of de-
livery) and unscrew the adjuster slightly. This re-
moves the slack in the cable that may occur after
first use or due to normal wear and tear.
2. Be careful not to unscrew the adjuster too far, as
this may cause the problem of interruption of the
drive.
3. After adjusting, tighten the counternut again.
14.4 Lubrication
The transmission is lubricated and sealed in the fac-
tory.
14.5 Oil change (Fig. 3)
NOTE!
Environmental damage!
Spilled oil can pollute the environment permanently.
The liquid is highly toxic and can quickly lead to water
pollution.
- Fill/empty oil only on level, paved surfaces.
- Use a filling nozzle or funnel.
- Collect drained oil in a suitable container.
- Wipe up spilled oil carefully immediately and dis-
pose of the cloth according to local regulations.
- Dispose of oil as per local regulations.
The engine oil change should be carried out while the
motor is at operating temperature and switched off.
