Petrol engine
Please note that the engine's service life and operational reliability are heavily de-
pendent on the running-in time. Always allow a cold engine to warm up for a few
minutes first of all and do not run up to full power immediately.
During the first
20
hours of operation (running-in period) do not use the engine at
full power.
Attention:
The engine is not filled up with
engine oil for transport reasons!
Fill the engine with engine oil before first
commissioning, but do not go beyond the
maximum level!
Engine operating instructions
Prior to startup, check the
gearbox oil
level
. See page 63.
This engine runs smoothly with conventional
unleaded regular and premium petrol (also
E10)
as well as
Super plus.
Do not add oil to petrol.
Only use fresh, clean fuel (no older than 3
months) and only use approved fuel cans avail-
able from specialist dealers. Do not use rusted
metal cans or plastic containers which are not
fuel-resistant.
Always remember good filter care and
clean fuel. Use only branded petrol.
Caution is needed when handling fuel.
Petrol is highly flammable and explosive
under certain conditions!
