Maintenance Intervals and General Tips:

• Regular Oil Changes: Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for oil change intervals, typically every 50 hours of operation or once a season. Use the recommended oil type and filter for optimal engine performance.

• Overheating: Ensure the cooling fins and radiator are clean and free of debris. Check the coolant level and consider flushing the cooling system periodically.
• Steering Problems: If the steering feels stiff or unresponsive, inspect the steering components for wear and lubricate them according to the manual.
