The recommended maintenance schedule includes regular oil changes every 50 hours, air filter checks every 100 hours, and a thorough inspection of belts and brakes every 200 hours. Consult the user manual for detailed intervals and procedures.
If you're experiencing starting issues, check the battery connections for corrosion, ensure the fuel tank has fresh fuel, and inspect the spark plugs for wear. If problems persist, consult a professional technician.
For optimal performance, use SAE 10W-30 engine oil. Ensure the oil meets API service classifications of SF, SG, SH, or SJ. Reference the owner's manual for additional specifications.
Regularly check tire pressure and maintain it at the recommended level of 12 PSI for optimal performance. Inspect for wear and damage, and rotate tires every 500 hours to ensure even wear.
In case of overheating, immediately stop the vehicle and allow the engine to cool. Check the coolant level and inspect the radiator for blockages. Ensure the cooling fan is operational. Consult a technician if the issue persists.
To replace the air filter, locate the air filter housing, remove the cover, and take out the old filter. Insert a new filter, ensuring it fits securely, and replace the cover. It's recommended to check the filter every 100 hours of operation.
Uneven braking can be caused by worn brake pads, air in the brake lines, or misaligned brake components. Inspect the brake system and bleed the brake lines if necessary. Replace any worn parts.
To adjust the suspension, locate the shock absorbers and adjust the preload setting using a suitable tool. Refer to the user manual for guidance on achieving the desired stiffness or softness.
Before storage, clean the vehicle thoroughly, change the oil, and fill the fuel tank with stabilizer-treated fuel. Disconnect the battery, inflate tires to the recommended pressure, and cover the vehicle to protect it from the elements.
To improve fuel efficiency, regularly maintain the engine with timely oil changes and air filter replacements. Avoid excessive idling, ensure tires are properly inflated, and drive at a consistent speed.
