1. Remove the engine casing.
2. Open the fuel cap (fig. 13).
3. Fill with diesel until the tank is at least half-full.
4. Close the fuel cap.
Use winter fuel or add kerosene in ambient tem-
peratures below 0°C. See the table below:
Diesel is highly flammable. Always
store fuel in containers that are made
especially for this purpose.

and never smoke when filling or top-
ping up. Fill with fuel before starting
the engine.
Never remove the fuel cap or fill with
fuel while the engine is running or still
