Lever bearings
•
Drive belt tension arm
•
Auger belt tension arm
6.6.2 Gearbox
No parts inside the gearbox are to be lubricated. All bearings
and bushings are permanently lubricated and require no
maintenance.
Lubricating these parts will only result in the grease getting
on to the friction wheel and disc drive plate, which could
damage the rubber clad friction wheel.
For long time storage the above-mentioned parts should be
lightly wiped with an oily rag to prevent rust.
7 SERVICE AND REPAIRS
No service must be carried out before:
- The engine has stopped.
- The starting cable has been disconnected from
the spark plug.
If the instructions say that the machine is to be lifted
at the front and rested on the auger housing then the petrol
tank must be emptied.
Empty the petrol tank outdoors when the engine is
cold. Do not smoke. Empty into a container
designed for petrol.
