Service of Chinese petrol cutters
A high-quality Chinese brushcutter can last longer than some branded tools, since well-known manufacturers of garden tools produce cheaper and not quite high-quality analogues of their professional brushcutters. Some petrol cutters use cheaper plastic and metal, while others shorten the working bar, which makes it impossible to balance the garden tool well for prolonged work.
Many gardeners buy Chinese petrol cutters as they always lend themselves to balancing. They are easy to adjust the engine speed. If properly maintained, a Chinese gasoline braid will last for many years. Every six months it is necessary to flush the fuel filter and adjust the play of the rubber grommet. It is also necessary to regularly adjust the cutting line or knives.
Replacing the protective part of the cutting elements and adjusting the engine speed of the petrol cutter is also an important part of caring for your garden tool.
Flushing the fuel filter
The benzokos consists of:
- engine;
- working shaft;
- upper gearbox;
- starter;
- working cutting elements.
Engine y petrol cutters can be two-stroke or four-stroke. For a two-stroke gasoline engine, you need to prepare a fuel mixture. Such an engine is fueled with gasoline mixed with two-stroke engine oil. During prolonged operation, the fuel filter is also impregnated with two-stroke oil, which is made of foam rubber in Chinese gasoline braids.
The round filter is located under a special protective cover located on the side of the engine. The plastic cover can be removed with an 8 mm screwdriver. There is also a cable under the cover, the high tension of which increases the speed of revolutions of the cutting elements of the brushcutter. The fuel filter can only be removed by loosening this cable. After removal, the fuel filter should be rinsed from oil residues. Petrol cutters are used for cleaning. Under the influence of gasoline, the oil is well washed off.
After washing the fuel filter, let it dry in the sun, otherwise gasoline vapors will enter the carburetor, which will adversely affect the operation of the brushcutter.
Working shaft lubrication
The lack of lubrication on the working shaft can adversely affect the work of the petrol cutter. In order to fill the working shaft with new grease, you need to unscrew the screw near the working element. The lubricant is filled into the hole using a medical syringe. Then the screw is tightened, the brushcutter is ready to work.
