7 2 COMBINED USE OF ACCESSORIES
For the combined use of accessories,
please refer to the “TABLE FOR THE
CORRECT COMBINATION OF ACCES-
SORIES” in section “0 TECHNICAL
DATA TABLE”
7 3 REFUELLING
Always use lead-free petrol only. DO
NOT mix petrol with oil.
For the capacity of the fuel tank, please refer to “0
TECHNICAL DATA TABLE” .
To check the fuel level, look at the level indicator
(9:A) .
NOTE! Petrol is perishable and should
not remain in the tank for more than 30
days
It is possible to use ecological fuels, i.e. alkyla-
te petrol. The composition of this petrol is less
harmful to people and the environment.
Do not fill the fuel tank right to the top. Leave a little
space (equal to at least the whole depth of the
top-up mouth + 1 - 2 cm from the top of the tank)
so that when the petrol heats up it has room to
expand without overflowing.
If you plan on putting the machine away
for a prolonged period (e g over the
winter), only put enough fuel in the tank
to finish the last job in hand.
In fact, before storing the machine it is
a good idea to empty the fuel tank com-
pletely (see 11)
