Refuelling
The refuelling operations are described in the
machine manual and are mentioned here.
To refuel:
1.
Unscrew the fuel tank filler cap
(fig.3.A) and remove it.
2.
Set a funnel on the hole. (fig.3.B)
3.
Refuel and take the funnel off (fig.3.B)
4.
At the end of refuelling, screw the cap
back on (fig.3.A) and clean any spillage.
IMPORTANT
Avoid getting fuel on the
plastic parts of the engine or machine to avoid
damaging them, and immediately clean off
every trace of spilled fuel. The warranty does not
cover damage to plastic parts caused by fuel.
4.1.4
Spark plug cap
Firmly connect the cap (fig. 5.A) of the
spark plug cable (fig. 5.B), ensuring
that there are no traces of dirt inside the
cap or on the spark plug terminal.
4.1.5
Check the battery charge status
See paragraph 5.3.2
4.2 STARTING THE ENGINE
The engine must be started up as described
in the machine's Instructions Manual, always
being careful to uncouple any device (if
applicable) that is capable of making the
machine travel forwards or stop the engine.
IMPORTANT
Do not work on slopes
exceeding 20° to avoid jeopardising
correct engine operation
IMPORTANT
Make sure the battery is
properly inserted inside its housing when dealing
with battery start-up models (par. 5.3.3
)
4.3 STOPPING THE ENGINE AT
THE END OF OPERATION
1.
Stop the engine following the
instructions contained in the
machine's Instructions Manual.
2.
With a cold engine, take the cap off
the spark plug (fig. 5.A) and take out
the starter key (if applicable).
3.
Remove any debris from the engine
and especially around the exhaust
silencer to reduce the risk of fire.
4.4 CLEANING AND STORAGE
•
Do not spray with water or use
pressure washer wands to clean
the exterior of the engine.
•
Preferably use a compressed air gun
(max. 6 bars), thus preventing debris
and dust from penetrating inside.
•
Store the lawnmower (and the engine)
in a dry place, sheltered from the
elements and sufficiently ventilated.
4.5 PROLONGED DOWNTIME
If the engine is not going to be used for more than
30 days (for example, at the end of the season),
it will be necessary to take a few precautions
so that it will start back up again accordingly.
•
Empty the fuel tank, to prevent deposits
from forming inside, by unscrewing the
cap (fig. 3.A) of the fuel tank and collecting
all of the fuel in a suitable container. At
the end of this operation, remember to
screw the cap back on (fig. 3.A) tightly.
•
Remove the spark plug and pour about 3 cl
of clean engine oil into the spark plug hole,
then, having blocked the hole with a rag, run
the starter motor briefly to turn the engine for
a few revs and distribute the oil over the inner
surface of the cylinder. Finally, replace the
spark plug without connecting the cable cap.
5. MAINTENANCE
Any attempt to tamper with the
emission control system may increase
emission levels above legal limits.
This definition includes the removal or
alteration of parts such as the intake system,
the fuel system and the exhaust system.
5.1 GENERAL
The safety regulations that must
be followed during maintenance
are described in par. 2.4.
All controls and maintenance
operations must be carried out with
the machine off and the engine off.
Disconnect the spark plug and read the
relative instructions before starting any
cleaning or maintenance procedure. Wear
