ENGLISH

Environmental petrol can be used, i.e. alkylate

petrol. This type of petrol has a composition that is

less harmful for people and nature.

Petrol is highly inflammable. Always

store fuel in containers that are made

especially for this purpose.

Only fill or top up with petrol outdoors,

and never smoke when filling or top-

ping up. Fill up with fuel before starting

the engine. Never remove the filler cap

or fill with petrol while the engine is

running or still warm.

Never completely fill the petrol tank. Leave an

empty space (= at least the entire filler tube plus 1

- 2 cm at the top of the tank) to allow the petrol to

expand when it warms up without overflowing.

See fig. 7.

4.2 Checking the engine oil level

On delivery, the crankcase is filled with SAE 10W-

30 oil.

Check the oil level every time before using to

ensure it is correct. The machine should be

standing on level ground.

Wipe clean around the oil dipstick. Un-

screw and pull it up. Wipe off the dipstick.

Slide it down completely and tighten it.

Then unscrew it and pull it up again. Read off the

oil level. Top up with oil to the “FULL” mark, if

the level comes below it. See fig. 8.

The oil level must never exceed the “FULL” mark.

This results in the engine overheating. If the oil

level exceeds the “FULL” mark, the oil must be

drained until the correct level is achieved.

4.3 Checking transmission oil level

Check the oil level every time before using to

ensure it is correct. The machine should be

standing on level ground.

Read off the oil level in the reservoir (9:R). It

should be between the MAX and MIN marks. If

necessary, top up with more oil.
