OPERATION

CAUTION! 

Always use clean, fresh unleaded petrol. Purchase fuel in quantities that 

can be used within 30 days. Never mix oil with petrol.

CAUTION! 

Do not fill into the base of neck to allow for fuel expansion. Do not overfill 

the fuel tank.

WARNING!

 Petrol is highly flammable and extreme precaution must be taken when 

handling or working with it. Keep out of reach of children.

WARNING! 

Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Do not smoke 

or allow flame or sparks in the area where the engine is refueled or where petrol is 
stored. Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or inhalation of vapour.

1.  Clean the area around the petrol filler cap before removing the cap. Remove the warning 

tag, check the fuel level.

2.  Refill the tank if the fuel level is low.
3.  Refuel carefully to avoid overfilling or spilling fuel. There should be no fuel in the filler 

neck.

4.  Clean up any overflow or splashes of petrol before starting the engine.
5.  Tighten the filler cap after filling, finger tight on.

STOP! 

Do not start the engine before putting 500ml of SAE 30 oil into the engine. 
Failure to do so will result in irreparable damage to the engine and invalidate 
your warranty.

START/STOP the engine

WARNING:

 The blade begins to rotate as soon as the engine is started.

NOTE:

 Do not operate the machine in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas as the 

exhaust gas contains toxic substance. Keep hands, feet, hair and clothing away from 
all the moving parts of the machine. The exhaust and other parts of the machine will 
become hot during use. Make sure that the blade is securely fastened before starting 
the engine.

NOTE:

 to start the engine, make sure that the spark plug boot is located on the plug 

and the machine is filled with sufficient oil and petrol. When starting a cold engine, 
press down the primer fully 3-5 times.(see Fig.13)

WARNING! 

Too much presses on primer may cause engine flooded when starting a 

warm engine, the primer does not need to be used. If the engine stops due to a lack 
of petrol, refill and press down the primer 3~5 times.

1.  Stand behind the mower. Pull the engine Start/stop lever toward upper handle with one 

hand. And place the other hand on the starter handle.
