Specifications Attachments/Accessories Note: Specifications and design are subject to change without notice.
Operation DANGER In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive. A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and others and can damage property. Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. Important: The fasteners on the covers of this machine are designed to remain on the cover after removal.
3. Add unleaded regular gasoline to both fuel tanks, until the level is 6 mm to 13 mm (1/4 to 1/2 inch) below the bottom of the filler neck. WARNING Gasoline is harmful or fatal if swallowed. Long-term exposure to vapors can cause serious injury and illness. This space in the tank allows gasoline to expand. Do not fill the fuel tanks completely full. • Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors. 4. Install fuel tank caps securely. • Keep face away from nozzle and gas tank or conditioner opening. 5.

Operating the Core Processor Starting Instructions • Make sure the core processor is clean, especially the brush WARNING ROTATING PARTS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY • • Keep hands and feet away from core processor reel while machine is running. • • • Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent injury. • • NEVER operate the machine with covers, shrouds, or guards removed. and chopper housings.
• Make sure to raise the Core Processor. The amount of soil processed can be influenced by the tine size, hole depth and hole spacing of the aerator. Smaller tine size and wider spacing will leave less soil on the surface and require less post processing. Some soil moisture is necessary for good aeration. • Do not exceed 24 (15 mph). • If using the tow hitch, reposition the core processor behind the vehicle, retract the tow hitch and move the latch handle pin to the locked position (Figure 35).
Soil Moisture Chart This chart is to be used as a guideline for determining soil moisture. Core processing in conditions that fall into the shaded area of the chart may give less than desirable results.
Inspecting and Cleaning the Brush/Chopper Housing CAUTION When cleaning the chopper area, stand clear of the output chute to avoid being stuck by thrown objects. Service Interval: Every 4 hours Clean the brush/chopper housing more often in high soil moisture conditions. Inspect the Chopper Tips The brush/chopper housings will build up with mud more rapidly when used in grass longer than one inch height of cut, clay and loam soil or in early morning dew.
High Altitude Operation When operating in high altitudes the carburetor jets may have to be changed to obtain optimum engine performance. Use the chart below to determine which carburetor jet is required for the operating altitude. Order the carburetor jets from your Briggs and Stratton Dealer. Carburetor Jet Size Figure 38 1. Chopper tip 2. Using a hack saw, cut a slot in the sheared end of the bolt and into the chopper tip (Figure 38).
Maintenance Recommended Maintenance Schedule(s) Maintenance Service Interval Maintenance Procedure After the first 8 hours • Check the torque of the wheel nuts • Change the engine oil • Check condition and tension of belts Before each use or daily • • • • • • Check the engine oil level. Clean the engine screen and the oil cooler. Check the hydraulic lines and hoses.
Daily Maintenance Checklist Duplicate this page for routine use. Maintenance Check Item For the week of: Mon. Tues. Wed. Thurs. Fri. Check the engine oil and fuel level. Check the air cleaner Check unusual operating noises. Check hydraulic hoses for damage. Check for fluid leaks. Check the tire pressure. Check the instrument operation. Lubricate all grease fittings.1 Touch-up damaged paint. 1.
Lubrication Greasing Bearings and Bushings Service Interval: Every 50 hours The core processor has (18) grease fittings that must be lubricated regularly with No. 2 General Purpose Lithium Base Grease. Lubricate the chopper, rear roller and rotating corner bearings immediately after every washing. 1. Lubricate the following grease fittings: • Tow frame, Qty 2 (Figure 40) • Lift cylinder, Qty. 2 (Figure 39 & Figure 42) • Lift axle, Qty. 2 (Figure 39) Figure 40 • Jack shaft, Qty.
Engine Maintenance Servicing the Air Cleaner Check the air cleaner housing for damage which could cause an air leak. Replace if damaged. Check the whole intake system for leaks, damage or loose hose clamps Service the air cleaner filter only when the service indicator (Figure 44) requires it. Changing the air filter before it is necessary only increases the chance of dirt entering the engine when the filter is removed. Figure 43 2.
2. If the safety filter is being replaced, carefully slide it into the filter body (Figure 45). 3. Carefully slide the primary filter over the safety filter (Figure 45). Note: Ensure that the primary filter is fully seated by pushing on its outer rim while installing it. Important: Do not press on the soft inside area of the filter. 4. Clean the dirt ejection port located in the removable cover. Remove the rubber outlet valve from the cover, clean the cavity and replace the outlet valve. g018319 5.
3. Wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving the operating position. 4. Clean around the oil dipstick (Figure 47) so that dirt cannot fall into the filler hole and damage the engine. Figure 48 1. Oil drain plug 7. Slowly pour approximately 80% of the specified oil into the filler tube (Figure 47). 8. Check the oil level; refer to Checking the Engine Oil Level. Figure 47 1. Oil dipstick 9. Slowly add the additional oil to bring it to the Full mark. 2. Filler tube Changing the Oil Filter 5.
7. Fill the crankcase with the proper type of new oil; refer to Servicing the Engine Oil. 8. Run the engine for about 3 minutes, stop the engine, and check for oil leaks around the oil filter. 9. Check the engine oil level and add oil if needed. Servicing the Spark Plugs Ensure that the air gap between the center and side electrodes is correct before installing the spark plug.
Fuel System Maintenance 3. Loosen the hose clamp at the fuel filter and slide it up the fuel line away from the fuel filter (Figure 52). 4. Disconnect the fuel line from the fuel filter (Figure 52). Note: Allow gasoline to drain into a fuel container can or drain pan (Figure 52). Replace Fuel Filter Note: This is the best time to install a new fuel filter because the fuel tank is empty. Service Interval: Every 600 hours 1.
Electrical System Maintenance to avoid quick deterioration of the charge in the battery. To prevent battery from freezing, make sure it is fully charged. The specific gravity of a fully charged battery is 1.250. Battery Care WARNING Charging the battery produces gasses that can explode. Service Interval: Every 100 hours • Battery electrolyte level must be properly maintained and the top of the battery kept clean.
Cooling System Maintenance Belt Maintenance Cleaning the Engine Screen and the Oil Cooler Service Interval: After the first 8 hours Every 50 hours Adjusting the Belts Check the belts for cracks, frayed edges, burn marks or any other damage. Replace damaged belts. Check the condition and tension of the belts as required: Service Interval: Before each use or daily Before each use, check and clean the engine screen and oil cooler.
A. Loosen the lower nut on the eye bolt and thread it to the end of the bolt (Figure 56). 5. Install the belt cover. Jack shaft to Chopper Belt To check the belt tension proceed as follows: 1. Remove the belt cover (Figure 59). Figure 56 1. Eye bolt B. 2. Lower nut Insert a socket wrench into the square hole in the idler arm and rotate the wrench upward (Figure 55). Important: Do not rotate the wrench upward too far because damage to the idler arm extension spring may occur.
Chopper to Brush Belt 6. Carefully slide the belt onto the chopper shaft. Do not rotate the chopper shaft. To adjust or reinstall the belt, proceed as follows: 7.
