17 -GARAGING
Before garaging the machine:
! Wash it carefully with Diesel fuel, change the engine oil, gear box and milling unit .
! Empty the fuel tank and wash or change the air-filter.
! Oil and lubricate ever y joints and mechanism.
! Change or repair eventual damaged parts.
! Park the machine i n a dr y room, putting its wheels on wooden boards or, even better, lifted from the ground.
18 - TROUBLESHOOTING
Eventual troubles which can be sol ved by the operator ( wor ker) :
ENGINE :
The engine doesn’t start; c ontr ol that:
! Fuel in the tank reac hes half of the tank itself .
! The fuel c ock is open.
! The starter must be engaged if the engine is cold.
! Fuel arrives to the carburettor.
! The vent c ap on the tank is not clogged.
! The car burettor cas tings are open; other wise clean them with compress ed air.
! The ignition spark works: to test this, unscrew the spark plug, reconnect it to the electric cable, lean the metallic part of the spar k pl ug to
mass ( wor king cylinder) and turn the engine pulley as for the starti ng . If the ignition spar k does not spar k among the electrodes, control
the joints of the elec tric cable. Other wise change the spark pl ug with another one . If even this attempt fails, the br eakdown has to be
attributed to the lighting set (poi nts, capacitor, coils etc.). In this case we suggest to appl y to the neares t ser vice rel ating the engine
mounted on the machi ne.
