Maintenance
Changing / Draining Oil
To reduce fire hazards, check there is no oil and/or fuel leaks on a regular basis.
There are different ways you can empty the oil:
• The oil can be discharged at a specialised servicing centre.
• You can use an oil syringe to suction the oil out through the filler spout, bearing in mind you
may need to repeat the operation several times in order to completely empty the tank.
• Gently tilt the machine with the air filter facing upwards and allow the excess oil to drain from
the dipstick port, in to a suitable container.
Remember to top-up with oil before using the machine again.
Fuel & Carburetor
The use of old or stale petrol will impair the starting and running of the machine.
Make sure that the machine has fresh unleaded petrol and always remove the fuel before
storing for long periods of time.

To drain the carburetor float bowl, undo the drain bolt making sure that the washer is
not lost. If stored for more than 2 weeks and engine will not start, drain the old fuel from the
carburetor float bowl to allow fresh fuel to fill the carburetor.

Use a suitable container to catch the fuel. Take care not to spill fuel and make sure that
all spilt fuel is cleared away safely. Float bowl contains approx 30ml of fuel. It is possible to
empty the entire fuel system by this method, as the fuel tank feeds the carburettor.

CAUTION -
ALL FUELS ARE FLAMMABLE. Always fuel and defuel in a well-ventilated area
outside of buildings. Always wear correct PPE and wipe up and spills immediately.

It is highly recommended to change the engine oil every 100 hours or 12 months. This will ensure
the machine will function properly over time.
