5. Secure the terminal position
with a Spanner and tighten.
Engine monitoring (pic. 1)
The engine oil quality is decisive for correct output of the driving unit and operation life. Use only suitable and
high-quality lubricants; unsuitable lubricants cause damage to the appliance and lead to immediate warranty
expiry (SAE 10 W 40 specification multi-purpose semi-synthetic lubricant recommended). There might be no
engine oil or just a small amount of it (filling for factory test) when dispatching the appliance.
Oil level must necessarily be checked before the appliance is put into operation!
The appliance should always be put to a flat surface when inspecting the oil level. Always consider the
environment when filling and emptying the engine oil and fuel: use appropriate filling and emptying tools.
Prevent uncontrolled fuel or oil leak in any case!
Screw the oil dipstick (pic. 1a) out or pull it out.
Add oil up to the
"Correct oil level"
marking (pic.1) and check the correct level (engine oil level must touch
the final oil filling neck thread). Make sure not to overfill the appliance when standing on an uneven surface!
Screw, or push, the oil dipstick again.
If you want to empty the engine oil (oil change, maintenance, etc.), pull the oil dipstick out (pic. 1a) and
screw the oil drainage screw out (pic. 1b).
Keep the oil dipstick, oil filling hole, oil drainage hole and oil
drainage screw clean at all times!
Use appropriate containers and prevent environment pollution by
lubricants and fuels.
Fill with fuel / air filter check:
Refuelling
The engine is maintenance-free and common unleaded Normal and Super petrol is added in it. If
environment-friendly unleaded petrol is used, fuel must be completely drained at engines put out of operation
for more than 30 days to prevent resinous deposits in the carburettor, fuel filter and tank or fuel stabilizer
mixed to the fuel.
Do not add oil to petrol
Refuelling is done by removing the tank lid (pic. 1; pos. 9) and adding the fuel up to the fuel screen marking
as maximum (the fuel screen is located in the tank filling hole). Prevent fuel from contacting your skin! Make
sure fuel is always clean with no dirt! Close the tank lid appropriately after each refuelling or inspection.
Take the appliance to the surface you want to sweep.
Check all components if tightened well and not damaged.
Check the entire air filter for any dirt. Pic.15 shows air filter components from the engine with the air filter lid
being unscrewed (pic. 14). All air filter components, especially the air filter insert (pic. 15a) must be clean –
cleaning agent: cleaning petrol (adhere to the safety sheet of the given manufacturer!).
Open the fuel tap (pic. 8; pos. “ON“). Check if the socket plug is tightened.
Hydraulic oil check
With the splitting column inserted, use the oil gauge (pic. 9; pos. 8) to check whether the filler volume is
appropriate. The hydraulic oil level must always be between both markings on the oil gauge. If necessary,
add commercially available hydraulic oil, e.g. HLP46 or any other one with the same viscosity.
