Changing The Blades - sunjoe TJ600E Manual Del Operador

• All nuts and bolts must be checked periodically for
tightness before operation. After prolonged use, especially
in sandy soil conditions, the working tool will become worn
and lose some of its original shape. Tilling efficiency will be
reduced and the working tool should be replaced.
• Have worn or damaged working parts replaced with new
ones of the same type by a qualified technician.
• To prolong the life span of the working tool and the product,
lubricate the blades after each use.
Maintenance

WARNING!
Unexpected blade movement may cause
personal injury. Before servicing, repairing, or inspecting
the unit, turn the motor OFF and disconnect the extension
cord. Wait for the blades to completely stop rotating before
conducting inspection, cleaning, or maintenance.
Before and after each use, check the product and accessories
(or attachments) for wear and damage. When necessary, only
use identical replacement parts that are approved by the
manufacturer.

WARNING!
Contact with hot components (e.g. motor
housing, gear box, etc.) on the machine may cause burns.
Allow the machine to cool off before handling.
IMPORTANT!
• Wear protective gloves when cleaning or maintaining the
machine.
• Do not use cleaning fluids or solvents or spray the
machine down with water (especially water under
pressure) when cleaning the machine.
NOTE: After each use, follow these steps to properly clean
the unit:
1. Remove soil, dirt, and foliage stuck in the blades, drive
shaft, tool surface, and vents with a brush or dry cloth.
2. Spray or rub biodegradable oil onto the blades.
3. Clean soiled grips with a damp cloth.
Always inspect the machine for damaged and worn parts after
each use. Check that safety features (i.e. labels, guards, etc.)
are in place. Check that nuts, bolts, and screws are tight.

Changing the Blades

NOTE: The machine is fitted with four tilling blades that can
easily be changed in pairs. Both of the steel blade pairs can
be fitted on the left or right, as required. Always change both
blade pairs at the same time to avoid imbalance and damage
to the machine.
To replace the blades, follow the steps below:
1. Place the electric tiller on the ground. The rating label
should be facing upward.
2. Remove the hex bolts and the self-locking nuts, then
remove the steel blades (Fig. 11).

3. Clean the drive shaft with biodegradable oil (Fig. 12).
4. Place the new blades onto the drive shaft so that the
holes on the axles line up with the holes on the drive shaft
(Fig. 12).
5. Insert the hex bolts through the holes and secure them
with the self-locking nuts (Fig. 12).

IMPORTANT: The blades must be set in the correct turning
direction. Note the way the old blades came off and replace
the new ones exactly the same way.
