Intended Use
Use the lawn mower only for its intended purpose, for cutting grass on lawns in
private areas.
Please observe the national regulations governing noise abatement.
The machine is not intended for continuous professional use in public areas,
parks, sport ground or farming and forestry spaces.
The lawn mower may not be operated during rain or on wet grass.
Filling the Lawn Mower with Engine Oil
The lawn mower will be delivered without oil and gasoline. Place the lawn
mower on a level ground when filling with oil and fuel.
1. Unscrew and remove the oil dipstick (14). Fill the oil tank for the first time
with approx. 500 ml SAE30 engine oil. Make sure not to overfill the engine.
2. Make sure the oil tank is securely tightened with the oil cap which also
serves as oil dipstick.
Filling the Tank with Fuel
Only fill unleaded regular or premium petrol in the tank. Unleaded petrol
produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits and extends the service life of
the exhaust system. Only use fresh and clean fuel. Never mix oil and petrol
together.
1. Open the tank cap (4) by turning counter clockwise. Remove the cap.
Carefully fill petrol into the tank from a suitable container. Make sure not to
overfill the fuel tank because fuel will expand when becoming warm.
2. Close the tank cap. If fuel is spilled, immediately wipe off and start the
engine at least 3 m away from the fuel point.
Only purchase as much fuel as needed for mowing. The fuel should be
used up within 30 days to assure fuel freshness.
Before Operation
Before each use, check the firm fit of all screws and nuts. Make also sure the
spark plug cable is properly inserted onto the spark plug (17).
