6.3. REGULAR INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENTS
6.3.1 BATTERY
Correct, regular maintenance increases the life of the battery. You should therefore check it according
to the battery manufacturer's instruction manual.
Keep the battery contacts clean. If they get dirty or corroded, clean them according to the manufacturer's

instructions. Interruption of the circuit caused by the oxidation of the contacts may lead to the
malfunction of the recharging function of the motor!
Regularly check the electrolytes. The level should be between the MIN and

MAX marks. For filling the electrolytes, use only distilled water.
A drained battery must be charged as soon as possible. Otherwise the cells may be irreversibly

damaged.
The battery must always be charged before:

- first use
- during a long storage period
- before operation after a long storage period
If the battery needs to be changed, always use a battery of the same size and model.

Further information on checking and maintaining the battery is given in a separate manual
provided by its manufacturer.
6.3.2 ENGINE

 CHANGING THE OIL

Before changing the oil, prepare a container of at least 2 litres. For all
oil to drain from the engine, we recommend tilting the machine (such
as with wooden blocks) on the opposite side from the drain plug. Drain
the oil while it is still warm.
Remove the oil filler cap so that the oil will drain better and faster.

Unscrew the drain plug and let the oil drain completely into the

prepared container.
Screw the drain plug back in, pour in the right amount of the specified

oil ( Engine operation manual) and close the oil filler cap.
Use the dipstick to check the oil level. If necessary, add oil to the

proper level.
