Maintenance

During the working period of the machine, due to the operation, friction, and wear and load changes, the loosening of the connection bolt and the wear of the parts inevitably occur.
This may cause the wrong state of the system, which will cause abnormal clearance adjustment, and the engine power is degraded. In addition, increased fuel consumption, various parts of the misalignment and increased failure, seriously affecting the use of the machine.
To reduce the above, strict and regular maintenance work is necessary to prevent these problems from occurring. Thus, the machine will be in good condition and its useful life will be longer.
Filming

1. Engine running – see engine user manual.
2. New or reconditioned motors, must run under no load condition for 1 working hour first, work under light load condition for 5 hours. After this first period of work, change the engine and gearbox oil. Once the change is made, start the machine and work with it lightly for 3-5 minutes so that the oil impregnates all the gears. Check oil levels regularly.

The technical maintenance of the machine

1. Shift maintenance (do before and after each work shift)
   • Listen and see if there is any abnormal phenomenon (such as abnormal sound, overheating, screw loosening, etc.)
   • Check whether the engine, gearbox and transmission case have oil leaks.
   • Check whether the oil level in the engine and gearbox is correct.
   • Please remove mud, weeds and oil from the whole machine and accessories in time.
   • Complete work logs.
2. First class maintenance (every 100 working hours)
   • Check the machine and adjust/tighten each element
   • Clean gearbox and transmission case; replace oil.
   • Check and debug clutch, shift system and reverse system.
3. Secondary maintenance (every 200 working hours)
   • Maintenance of all content after 200 hours of work.
   • Check all gears and bearings, if they are badly worn, replace them with new parts
   • The remaining parts of the machine, such as the rotary blade or the link, bolts, etc., if damaged, replaced with new parts.
4. Gasoline engine maintenance, refer to engine user manual

Adjustment methods

The adjustment method of handle and cable
When the clutch lever fails to engage and the machine won’t engage, that means you should adjust the gear lever and cable accordingly.

• Hold and release the reverse lever 2-3 times to confirm the clutch situation. If it is not normal, it should be debugged again until it is correct.
• When the machine is running, release the steering clutch lever, the gear should return, there should be no abnormal noise from the gearbox, otherwise it will damage the gears.

The throttle and cable adjustment method
When turning the throttle switch, the engine acceleration or deceleration performance is not good, that means the throttle cable needs to be adjusted

• Rotate the throttle switch 2-3 times repeatedly and confirm the engine acceleration and deceleration performance.
• The throttle cable and cable connector must be firmly connected by screws.

The handlebar adjustment method
According to your height and other special requirements, you can adjust the up-down, left-right positions of the handlebar as follows

• Left-right, up-down handlebar adjustment:
  • Pull down the adjustment lever from top to bottom in the picture below to adjust the height of the handlebar.
  • Pull up the left-right adjustment handle in the picture below, and rotate the center section of the handlebar seat to adjust the left and right side of the handlebar.

Troubleshooting

The address does not work
Remove the wheel to see:

• Check that the bearings and pinions are properly greased. Check the level of gear wear.
• If the wear is serious, replace with a new one.
• If the return spring is invalid, please replace with new one.
• Check the clutch cable. If it is loose or does not engage, adjust the cable tension until the clutch engages

The blades do not stop when the motor stops or the stop time is prolonged
Remove the blade belt cover:

• Check if the strap is longer: use your hand to apply slight vertical pressure to the center of the strap, strap clearance≥20mm If yes, you need to adjust the clutch cable tension.
• If there is a gap between the brake pad and the drive wheel (clutch on and off), if the gap is large, it needs to be adjusted.
