Maintenance And Lubrication; Air Filter - Grillo CLIMBER 10 AWD 22 Bedienungsanleitung

3) Frequently sharpen the mower blades. The cut will be better and the engine will not be strained too
much.
4) Check the ground before mowing to make sure that there are no stones, sticks or foreign bodies.
5) Keep the engine at max. rpm during mowing and adjust the speed (fig. 1B, n. 10) according to the
height of the grass.
6) Keep the engine grid (fig. 4) and the cooling fins of both the front and rear hydrostatic axles
thoroughly clean.
CAUTION!
- Disconnect the plug before performing any cleaning, maintenance or repair operation.
Always wear suitable clothing and working gloves.
- When the machine or part of it is lifted to carry out maintenance operations, always
remember to use suitable fixing tools such as holders and safety locks.
- When carrying out maintenance operations and/or when the machine is tilted without safety
locks or supports,
children could have easy access to it.
- Protect the environment: carefully dispose of used oils, petrol and any other pollutant
product!
- Effective maintenance and correct lubrication help to keep the machine fully efficient.
ENGINE
For the lubrication intervals, follow the instructions provided in the engine manual. However it is
necessary to replace both the engine oil and the filter after the first 20 working hours and
subsequently every 100 working hours. Use SAE 30 oil. To replace the engine oil filter (fig. 8 7220
engine – fig. 9 8270 engine) it is necessary to remove the rear right wheel and the baffle ore remove
the fuel tank from above.
FRONT AND REAR HYDROSTATIC AXLE
The front and rear hydrostatic axles are connected through steel pipes (fig. 10) to let the oil flow into
the system and cool. The oil tank is located under the front hood (fig. 3). Check the engine oil every
100 working hours ( to be seen externally on the half of the tank - fig. 11) and add synthetic engine oil
5W50 if necessary. Replace the oil after the first 50 working hours then every 200 working hours
(quantity 5 litres). To drain the oil remove the lower side plugs on the front axle (fig. 12). In addition
remove the filter on the rear axle (fig. 13) and both screws under the axle (fig. 14) to completely drain
the oil from the differential and hydrostatic axle.
After having tightened the two screws under the rear hydrostatic axle, cleaned or replaced the filter
and tightened the two lower screws on the front hydrostatic axle, put the oil in the tank (fig. 3). To fill
the oil in, remove the two plugs on the front hydrostatic axle (fig. 15) and the yellow plug under the
right platform (fig. 16). In addition loosen the purge valve on the rear hydrostatic axle. The oil will
come out firstly form the two side plugs, then from the yellow plug and eventually from the purge
valve. Therefore when the oil is draining, tighten first of all the two side plugs (fig. 15), then the yellow
plug (fig. 16) on the front hydrostatic axle and then purge valve located on the rear axle (fig. 17).
Check that at least half of the tank is full, start the engine and move the forward lever (fig. 1B, n. 12)
repeatedly forward and backwards for about 5 minutes. During this operation put the rear lever 3-4
times (fig. 13) into neutral position while moving the forward lever. Switch the engine off. Loosen
again the purge valve located on the rear hydrostatic axle to let the oil drain and purge the hydraulic
system (fig. 17). Fill the tank again with fresh oil until a half is full (fig. 11).

AIR FILTER

Check the air filter every 4 hours or more frequently if working in a very dusty environment (fig. 5).
Check the engine cooling grid (fig. 4). Always keep the engine inner and outer grids clean not to
prevent the passage of the air. Keep the engine casing and the hydrostatic axle clean. Loosening the
screw (fig. 5, ref. A) on both sides, the operator has access to the engine cylinder fins to carry out
regular cleaning (for 10 AWD 27 only).
