Oil change
The engine oil should be changed with the engine at operating temperature.
♦ Use only engine oil (15W40).
♦ Place the appliance on a suitable underlay tilted slightly towards the oil drain screw.
♦ Open the oil inlet screw /34/.
♦ Open the oil drain screw and let the warm oil run out into a container.
♦ After draining the waste oil, close the oil drain screw /15/ and set the appliance level again.
♦ Fill up with engine oil to the upper marking on the dipstick /34/ (approx. 0.6 l).
CAUTION!
► Do not screw in the dipstick /34/ (oil inlet screw) to check the oil level. Insert it only as far as the
thread.
■ Waste oil must be disposed of properly.
Automatic oil switch-off
The automatic oil switch-off /35/ activates if there is too little engine oil and switches the engine off.
If this happens, the engine cannot be restarted or switches off again after a short while. A restart is only
possible after the oil has been topped up (see section “Oil change, checking the oil level (before each
use)”).
Preparation for storage
■ Empty the fuel tank /7/ using a petrol suction pump.
■ Start the engine and leave it running until the remaining petrol has been used up.
■ Change the oil after every season. To do this, drain the old engine oil from the warm engine and refill
with new oil.
■ Remove the spark plug /26/. Use an oil can to fill approx. 20 ml oil in the cylinder. Pull the pull starter
/17/ slowly so that the oil coats the inside of the cylinder. Screw the spark plug /26/ back in.
■ Store the appliance in a well-ventilated location.
Preparation for transport
■ Empty the fuel tank /7/ into a suitable container using a petrol suction pump.
■ If still operational, leave the engine running until the remaining petrol has been used up.
■ Remove the engine oil from the warm engine (as described).
■ Remove the spark plug connector /26/ from the spark plug /26/.
■ Secure the appliance against slipping using securing straps.
