12.1 Checking the oil level + topping up the engine oil
12.1.1 Checking the oil level
In the event of a great lack of oil being detected in the engine, the electronics on the machine
reverts to the safety mode and switches the engine OFF. Of course, the machine will then have
already operated for a long time with insuffi cient lubrication. To prevent this, regular checking of
the oil level is of paramount importance.
• Park the machine on a level surface so that the engine mounting plate is perfectly horizontal.
• Allow the engine to cool down for approximately 15 minutes.
• Remove the right-hand safety cover (see 11.3.2.1).
• Have a clean cloth ready.
• Look for the dipstick at the rear of the engine (that is provided for measuring the oil level).
• Remove the dipstick (2) from the tube and clean it with a piece of kitchen towel. Insert the
dipstick into the crankcase and then remove it. The oil level must reach the “F” mark.
• If this is not the case, then the oil must be topped up (Caution : Do not top up with too much
oil!).
