Prior to starting
Checking the oil level
Notice
Incorrect oil level can damage the engine.
► Prior to each use, check the engine oil level and the oil
level in the hydrostat (see Maintenance).
Observe the information in the operator’s manual of the en-
gine manufacturer.
Fuel
Fur fuel, use lead-free gas (see operating instructions of the
engine manufacturer).
You can use E10 fuel. Do not store E10 fuel longer than 30
days.
Do not use E85 fuel. The fuel must contain less than 10 %
ethanol.
Tanking up
Warning
Fuel is ignited by hot engine parts.
► Prior to filling up, switch off the engine and wait for at
least 20 minutes until the engine has cooled down. Ob-
serve the safety instructions regarding the fuel!
Filling up with fuel
1. For filling, use a canister with filler spout or a funnel.
2. Open the canister carefully so that existing excess pres-
sure is slowly reduced.
3. Open the tank cap carefully so that fuel does not splash
out.
4. Fill the fuel tank.
5. Close the tank cap until you hear three clicks.
Adjusting the seating position
Adjust the seat in the longitudinal direction until your feet are
positioned on the inclined support plates and you sit comfort-
ably.
Adjusting the seat suspension
To provide the ultimate seating comfort, spring deflection
should be fully utilized, if possible. Adjust the handwheel so
that the seat does not contact the frame during normal opera-
tion.
Putting up the bar
For safety reasons, always use the device with the bar folded
up and locked. If the device tips over, the bar can prevent the
device from overturning. Serious damage to the device can
be thus avoided.
The device may only be used with the bar folded down on
level ground.
Transport rack
Warning
During loading there is an increased risk of tipping.
► Do not move on steep slopes when the transport rack is
loaded. Pay attention to the admissible loading limits.
The device has a transport rack above the engine cover.
Notice
There is a hazard due to incorrect loading that the engine
overheats and is damaged.
► Only load the transport rack so that the ventilation grid
that is located below it is not covered.
Beware!
Only load the transport rack so that the ventilation
grid that is located below it is not covered. Otherwise there is
a danger that the engine overheats and is damaged.
