Trouble shooting

After about 50 operating hours the gear box (D/8) should be

checked by a OLMAR service centre, and if necessary re-

grease.

The service centre will add the exact amount of grease, as

excessive grease will lead to overheating of the gearbox.

Lubricating the gear box

The felt ﬁ lter (E/9) of the suction head is used to ﬁ lter the fuel

taken in by the carburetor.

A periodical visual inspection of the felt ﬁ lter should be con-

ducted. For this purpose open the tank cap, and use a wire

hook to pull out the suction head through the tank opening. If

the ﬁ lter has hardened or is dirty or clogged, replace it.

Insufﬁ cient fuel supply can result in the admissible maximum

speed being exceeded. It is therefore important to replace the

felt ﬁ lter at least every three months to ensure a good fuel sup-

ply to the carburetor.

Cleaning the mufﬂ er opening

Regularly inspect the mufﬂ er opening (E/8). When it becomes

clogged with carbon residues, carefully scrape them out with

the suitable tool.

After about 50 tankfuls, have the brushcutter thoroughly inspected

at a MAKITA service centre.

No maintenance and adjustment work not described in this

manual may be performed by the user. Al such work must

be performed only by a MAKITA service centre.
