Texas TX602 B 90060245 — proper Maintenance Guide for Garden Machinery [21/69]

Maintaining the chain housing

The chain housing is lubricated with 0.2 litres of TEXACO Multifak EP0 grease at the factory.

This process does not need to be repeated.

Always stop the motor before doing maintenance work.

Engine

The machine comes without oil or petrol. Remember to fill motor oil before using the

machine.

Remember that fuel is very flammable.

Replace worn or damaged mufflers as needed.

Do not replace or adjust the motor settings.

For correct use and maintenance of the engine, consult the accompanying engine manual.

Storage

If the machine is likely to be stored unused for prolonged periods, follow the instructions

below. This will ensure longer machine lifetime.

Empty the motor of fuel, follow the motor’s instruction manual and other storage instructions.

Once the motor has cooled, use a garden hose to wash off soil and grime. Remove any

grass, etc. from the rotor shaft. The chassis number should only be cleaned with a damp

cloth, otherwise it can be damaged. Avoid using a high-pressure washer during cleaning.

Wipe the tiller over with a damp cloth so that all surfaces are clean. Wipe the surfaces down

with an oily cloth to prevent rust.

You should always store your machine in a clean and dry place, away from flammable

objects.

Replace damaged parts before storing the machine.

Accessories

Side guards: used for tilling in between crops, such as carrots/potatoes, to avoid

covering the crops in soil. Side guards can also be used for tilling along a wall or

stone path, or in soft soil.
