WARNING:
Stop the engine before refueling.
Do not start the machine in an enclosed room or
space. The exhaust gases and fumes from the
fuel and oil contain carbon monoxide and harmful
chemicals.
In case of a concentration of gases produced by
poor ventilation, remove area all that impedes the
flow of clean air from the work area to improve
ventilation. Do not return to work in the area unless
you have properly ventilated area and are certain that
ventilation is sufficient so that does not happen in this
concentration again.
Do not refuel fuel in locations where there is the
presence of open flames, sparks or heat sources. Fill
the tank always in well-ventilated areas and with the
motor stopped. Not overflow the fuel to overfill the
fuel tank. In the event of a fuel leak be sure to remove
these leaks completely before starting, move the
machine away from the area of spillage and avoid any
source of ignition until all vapors are gone.
Separate yourself at least 3 meters from the refueling
area before starting the machine.
Add fuel before starting the machine. Never remove
the cap of the fuel tank while the engine is running or
when the machine is hot.
Do not use fuels such as ethanol or methanol. These
fuels will damage the engine of the machine.
6.3.2. ENGINE OIL
Before starting the engine for the first time you must
have oil. Check that the level is above the minimum.
This engine uses quality oil for 4 stroke engines,
viscosity 10W-40. The capacity of the engine
crankcase is 0.1 l.
Filling the oil sump:
-Place the machine on a flat, horizontal and
uncluttered surface.
-Unscrew the oil filler cap.
- Insert the filled 0, 1l of oil tube.
- Wait 1 minute for the oil to completely go down to
the crankcase.
- Clean the dipstick from the oil with a cloth.
- Insert the rod and screw on the oil cap.
- Unscrew the plug again and check the mark left
by oil on the dipstick. The mark left by the oil must
be between the minimum and maximum marks.
- If the mark is below the minimum, add a little more
oil and recheck.
- If the mark is above the maximum, you will have
to remove oil from the crankcase. To do this, tilt the
machine and let out a little oil (put a container
at the end of the tube to prevent oil spilling on the
machine or the ground).
