Always use adequate replacement parts in order to
obtain a proper performance of the product and avoid
damage and risks to machine and user.
Replacement parts should be purchased at the official
service dealer. The use of non-official spare parts
may cause risk of accident, injury to the user and
scrapping of the machine.
8.2.1. AIR FILTER
The dirt in the air cleaner will cause a reduction in the
performance of the machine. Check and clean this
element. If you notice damage or alterations to the
filter, replace it with a new one.
1. Remove the protective cap from the filter by
unblocking the lock .
2. Remove the filter.
3. You can clean the dust from the filter by shaking it
against a hard surface or blowing on it.
4. Install the filter in the machine.
5. Place the protective cap.
Note: The engine must never operate without the air
filter installed.
8.2.2. CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL
Perform the oil change only while the engine is still
hot.
WARNING! You must not throw old oil
in a pipeline network or on the Earth.
The contamination of groundwater and
water tables is subject to heavy fines. There are
special collection places at service stations. If not,
any municipal authority will give you the relevant
information.
Note: You have two procedures at your disposal
to empty the engine oil. You can drain the oil by
loosening the drain screw located at the base of the
filling canal or you can use the Garland engine oil
cleaner (ref.: 7199000020, not included with the
machine, which can be found at your nearest Garland
dealer) and suck the oil through the filling tube of the
machine.
For easy implementation, cleaning, and safety, we
recommend that you clean the oil.
To change the oil:
- Place the machine on a flat, horizontal and
uncluttered surface.
- Empty the engine oil:
(a) If it sucks the used oil: remove the engine oil
plug and vacuum the motor oil by inserting the
Garland vacuum cleaner tube (REF.: 7199000020,
not included with machine) to the bottom.
b) If you choose to empty the drain through the
drain plug, please note the trajectory that the
oil will take when falling into the chassis of the
lawnmower, place a large container to catch all of
the oil before it spills on the ground.
We recommend that you put a big plastic covering
in the area in which you will change the oil so that
oil does not fall on the ground. Once the work area
is prepared, remove oil drain plug and slightly tilt the
lawnmower so that the oil comes out and falls into the
container.
