Start and stop of engine
REMEMBER: Always check engine oil before start!
Oil level must be between min. and. max on the oil stick.
Fill with SAE-30 oil. There should be used 0,6 l. oil.
Use only unleaded Octane 95 fuel in the engine. Never fill up the tank completely.
Pull the handle (A), which loosens the knife brake,
towards the handle and pull the starting cord.
Let the starting cord carefully return to the engine.
The lawnmower has Auto Choker,so the machine
always runs with the same RPM.
Pull the handle (B) up to activate the self-propelling
function.
The handle (A) must be pulled towards the steering
handle while using the machine. When the handle is
released, the engine (and the knife) stops in 5 seconds.
Oil change
The oil must be changed after the first 5 hours of use. After that the oil must be changed at
least once a year.
1. Let the engine run for 5 minutes to warm up the oil. This makes it run easier and
make the oil change more complete.
2. Turn off the engine after 5 minutes. Take off the spark plug cap. Unscrew the
cork for the drain plug. (See the section Identification of parts, Pos L.) The oil
now runs out of the engine. Keep a suitable container ready to collect the oil.
NOTE that the engine may only be tilted backward at an angle of max 45
degrees.
Refit the drain plug and pour fresh oil into the engine.
3. This is done by removing the oil stick and filling with correct amount of oil.
4. Mount the spark plug cap.
Alternatively use an oil changing kit:
1. Suck the oil up through the oil filler hole using the
syringe. (See the section Identification of parts, Pos
D.) Use the hose as an extension piece to reach the
bottom of the engine. Transfer the used oil to the
accompanying container.
2. Fill the engine with new oil, type SAE30.
Check the oil level using the dipstick on the oil bung
