Changing the engine oil
CAUTION: prolonged exposure to used engine oil is dangerous; always wash your hands
thoroughly after handling used engine oil.
1. Unscrew and remove the oil filler cap/dipstick.
2. Place a oil collection tray under the drain plug.
3. Unscrew the drain plug, and allow the used engine oil to drain from the crankcase into
the oil collection tray.
NOTE: Drain the engine oil when the engine is warm, this will ensure the oil flows out
quicker.
4. Replace the drain plug and its seal ring.
5. Fill the crankcase with engine oil to the ‘H’ mark on the dipstick.
6. Replace the oil filler cap/dipstick.
NOISE/VIBRATION INFORMATION
Measured sound values determined according to EN ISO 3744:1995.
Wear hearing protection!
Vibration total values (triax vector sum) determined according to EN ISO 3744:1995: The
vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance
with a standardized test given in EN ISO 3744:1995 and may be used to compare one tool
with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared
vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However, if the tool
is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the
vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the
total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take
into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually
doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working
period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of
vibration, such as maintaining the tool and the accessories, keeping hands warm,
adjusting work patterns to avoid risk of vibration.
DISPOSAL AND RECYCLING
The unit is supplied in packaging to prevent its being damaged in transit. This packaging
is raw material and can therefore be reused or can be returned to the raw material system.
The unit and its accessories are made of various types of material, such as metal and
plastic. Defective components must be disposed of as special waste. Ask your dealer or
your local council.
One of the most damaging sources of pollution is oil; Do not throw away used engine oil in
with your domestic trash or down drains and sinks. Place it in a leak proof container and
take it to your local waste disposal site.
