Engine, General
General inspection
Make a habit of visually checking the engine and
engine bay before starting, and after operations when
you have
stopped the engine. This will help you to dis-
cover abnormalities quickly, or if something is about to
happen.
Look especially carefully for oil, fuel and coolant lea-
kages, loose bolts, worn or poorly-tensioned drive
belts, loose cable connections, damaged electrical
cables and hoses. This inspection only takes a few
minutes and can prevent serious malfunctions and
expensive repairs.
WARNING!
Accumulations of
fuel, oil and grease on the engine or
in the engine room is a fire hazard and must be
removed immediately they are detected.
WARNING!
If an
oil, fuel or coolant leak is detected, the cause must
be investigated and the fault rectified before the engine
is started.
Never direct the jet from a high-pressure washer at
seals, rubber hoses or electrical components. Never
use the high pressure setting for engine cleaning.
Air Filter, Change
1 If indicator is all red after the engine is stopped,
change the filter insert.
2 Undo the clamps and remove the lid from the filter
housing.
3 Remove the old filter. Be careful to ensure that no
contamination gets into the engine.
4 Install a new air filter and tighten the lid.
5 Reinstate the pressure drop indicator by pressing
in the indicator button.
IMPORTANT!
Scrap the old filter. It must not be cleaned.
