Assembling the lawnmower
INSTRUCTIONS FOR ASSEMBLING THE GRASS CATCHER
Assemble the grass catcher according to fi gure 2 – attach the plastic end piece from underneath and along the
sides of the catcher to the steel frame.
ADDING MOTOR OIL BEFORE STARTING THE LAWNMOWER
The lawnmower is supplied without motor oil. Before fi rst start up, add motor oil SAE30 15W-40 (approx 500 ml)
according to the following instructions.
Caution!
DO NOT OVERFILL the oil tank, otherwise a large amount of smoke will come out of the exhaust
when the lawnmower is started up.
1. When adding oil, place the lawnmower on a level surface.
2. Pull the oil dipstick out of the oil refi ll hole.
3. After adding oil, put the dipstick back into the hole (fi gure 5) and tighten it fi rmly.
4. The oil level must be between the upper and lower limit (see fi gure 5).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Check the oil level before every use of the lawnmower.
Add oil if necessary. Add oil up to the MAX level mark on the oil dipstick.
Replace the oil after the fi rst 5 hours of operation and subsequently after every 25 hours of operation.
ADDING FUEL
After unscrewing the fuel tank cap (fi gure 6), add fuel. Add fuel up to the collar of the fuel tank. Do not overfi ll
the fuel tank. Always add fresh, clean and approved lead-free petrol. Do not mix oil with fuel in an amount that
you will not be needing in the following 30 days; this will ensure the required freshness of the fuel.
Caution!
Fuels mixed with alcohol (e.g. gasohol) or fuels with ethanol or methane additives
may bind moisture to themselves, which may result in separation during storage and the formation of acids.
Subsequently during storage the acid vapours may damage the fuel system of the lawnmower engine. If
you will not be using the lawnmower for more than 30 days, drain the fuel system of the lawnmower, this
will prevent future engine problems. Drain the fuel tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines
and the carburettor are empty. At the start of the next season, add fresh fuel into the fuel tank. For more
information, see chapter Storage instructions. Never clean the engine or the carburettor with cleaning
agents, there is a risk of irreversible damage.
