Operating the engine with unsuitable oil or too high or
too low an engine oil level can lead to increased engine
wear and damage.
Only fill with engine oil that complies with the specifica-
tions in the operating instructions for the engine.
Ensure that the engine oil level is always within the des-
ignated range between the MIN and MAX marks.

1. Fill the engine oil provided into the engine crank-

case using the funnel, see the operating instructions
for the engine.

moderate pressure.

●

Green jet nozzle, 25° jet angle

For heavier soiling on large surfaces and working at
high pressure.

●

Yellow jet nozzle, 15° jet angle

For stubborn soiling and working at very high pres-
sure.
