WARNING!
Fill up the mower with 0.5L 4-Stroke oil (we recommend Bynorm 4
stroke lawn mower oil) before you start the engine for the first time. Failure to fill
the engine with oil will void your warranty.
WARNING!
Check the engine oil level before you start the engine.
1.
Place the mower on a flat and level surface. Clean the area around the oil filler cap.
2.
Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick by rotating in an anti-clockwise direction.
3.
Clean the oil dipstick with a clean cloth, cleaning away any oil on the dipstick.
4.
For a new engine, add 0.
4
L 4-Stroke oil (we recommend Bynorm 4 stroke lawn mower
oil).
5.
Re-insert the oil dipstick and secure the oil filler cap.
6.
Remove the oil dipstick and check the oil level again. It should be at the top of the full
indicator on the dipstick.
7.
If low, add oil slowly into the engine. Do not overfill. After adding oil, wait one minute
and then recheck the oil level.
8.
Replace and tighten the oil filler cap/dipstick. Always ensure the oil filler cap is firmly
locked in place before the engine is started.
