5. TROUBLESHOOTING
ATTENTION! Shut off the engine before performing any maintenance actions.
Listed below are some small difficulties that may occur and which can be resolved by the user.
1) The gasoline engine does not start.
Perform the following checks in the order indicated:
• The fuel tank is at least half full.
• The fuel cock is open.
• The engine is at minimum acceleration.
• The fuel reaches the carburetor.
• The fuel tank cap breather hole is not clogged.
• The carburetor filter is clean.
• The carburetor injectors are clean. Unscrew them to inspect them and, if dirty, clean them
with a jet of air.
• The spark plug sparks. Take out the spark plug, reconnect it to its wire, touch the metal
part of the spark plug with the metal part of the machine and turn the pulley as if to start the
engine. If no spark is seen between the spark plug electrodes, check if the spark plug wire
connections are tight. If there is still no current reaching the electrodes, replace the spark plug.
If the engine still does not start with a new spark plug, the problem must be found in the
electrical system, points, condenser, coil or other parts. It is advisable to go to the nearest
service point or specialized workshop.
2) The diesel engine does not start.
Perform the following checks in the order indicated:
• The fuel tank vent is not blocked.
• The fuel tank is at least half full. If the ambient temperature is very low, fill the reservoir,
located in the head and closed with a rubber plug, with engine oil.
If the engine still does not start, bleed the air from the fuel lines following the instructions
in the engine manual. If the engine still does not start, go to the nearest service center or a
specialized workshop.
3) The gears do not engage.
If the clutch cannot engage after a long
period of tractor operation, users can adjust
