How often do you do maintenance? Is it hard or easy and how long does it take?

There is an after run procedure that must be completed every time you run it. It is not difficult and takes about 5 minutes. There is also some adjustments and maintenance during running. This includes glow plug replacement, fuel adjustments and slipper clutch adjustments.

Clean the air filter about every two hours of drive time and if it starts running bad after about two months check the o-rings around the bad of the carburetor they go bad and the differentials you shouldn't have to worrie about changing the oil in them

You'll want to spend a couple minutes after every run cleaning and lubricating the engine and maim drive component (it doesn't have to be extensive, just a quick one) and every few 4 or 5 tanks of fuel you'll want to take stuff apart and really clean deeply (and repair or replace any worn out parts). You'll want to to spend am hour or two (depend on how fast you are at disassembling and reassembling the parts)

I replace mine once a year. A lot depends on how clean your house is and if you have pets that shed hair. I have two cats.

I have only had it for a few months, and have had no issues. There is, as far as I know, no maintenance listed in the owners manual.

I have had mine for about a year or maybe more and I am pretty hard on it. It has held up well.

I'm on my second motor, different part, after less than a year. When it DOES work, it works pretty well if you've got the right litter. But when it goes out, bah! It takes more than a week to get the new motor and then *I* have to spend my time replacing it - it seems like a pretty common issue. After a year, if the company thinks it's getting away with telling me to stuff it because they can't make a motor that works for more than a few months, they will have to find another chump to screw over. It's a tad ridiculous.

I change mine every 2-3 years, depending how much you use it. I use it about once a month for the large kitchen area.

Its pretty tough. Its taken some abuse and still works fine. The great thing is that its replaceable anyways.

I change mine about every 6 months, but I only use it at work. It doesn't get everyday or all day use.

About an hour, but I had three people working on it. Hardest part was disconnecting old fuel lines. Even with removal tool it took some time.

Yes, I have had no problems with it. It's a great unit and there is no maintenance involved.

Yes its very easy. I installed mine and it took 10 min. It was my first time ever for changing hardware.

Not too hard. Just take your time. A helper would be great but could be done alone.

Yes it's the only maintenance required and way to do that is to push up on the tiny metal pin at the very bottom of the site glass, the tank needs to be pressurized. I do have to add that my compressor stopped working after the first use. The auto stop failed a d now I have to use it on the constant run mode

From the research I've done it depends on your usage. I've had mine for almost a year. The person who recommended it to me has had his longer. The way mine is installed it's going to be easy to switch out the unit when necessary.

I think it is easy. It has a power head for extra cleaning & is simple to use. I have had this unit quite a while with no issues

It should be realtively easy. You may have to pull and shake it a little while pulling. The first few times were also a little difficult for me.

Very easy....but I don't know how it would hold up after frequent installations/removals. It has been durable for me for the last 2 years but I haven't tried to remove it.
