CHANGING DRIVE BELTS
Always use genuine belts. They fit exactly and last
longest.
When changing a v-belt, lift up one side of the ma-

or similar under the front wheel. Do not forget to
block the other front wheel so that the machine
cannot roll. Turn the rear wheels to the slewed po-
sition.
N.B. If the machine has to be tilted more than 45°
the battery must be removed.
