wheel to adjust the cutting height.
Start and stop of engine
REMEMBER: Always check engine oil before start!
Oil level must be between min. and. max on the oil stick. Fill with SAE-30 oil.
Use only unleaded Octane 95 fuel in the engine. Never fill up the tank completely.
See Figure 7
Pump the primer (A) according to the scheme:
Put the throttle control to maximum
Pull the handle (B), which loosens the knife brake,
towards the handle and pull the starting cord.
Let the starting cord carefully return to the engine.If necessary; reduce the throttle a bit
after engine starts.
Pull the handle (C) up to activate the self-propelling function.
The handle (B) must be pulled towards the steering handle while using the machine. When
the handle is released, the engine (and the knife) stops in 5 seconds
Oil change
The oil must be changed after the first 5 hours of use. After that the oil must be changed at
least once a year.
1. Let the engine run for 5 minutes to warm up the oil. This makes it run easier and
make the oil change more complete.
2. Turn off the engine after 5 minutes. Take off the spark plug cap. Unscrew the cork
for the drain plug. Theo oil now runs out of the engine. Keep a suitable container
ready to collect the oil.
NOTE
that the engine may only be tilted backward at an
angle of max 45 degrees. Refit the drain plug and pour fresh oil into the engine.
3. This is done by removing the oil stick and filling with correct amount of oil.
4. Mount the spark plug cap.
Alternatively use an oil changing kit:
1. Suck the oil up through the oil filler hole using the syringe. (See Figure 1 , Pos C.)
Use the hose as an extension piece to reach the bottom of the engine. Transfer the
used oil to the accompanying container.
2. Fill the engine with new oil, type SAE30. Check the oil level using the dipstick on
the oil bung
Remember to dispose of the used oil so that it is not harmful to nature.
Use your local recycling station. Oil and oil changing kit is not included.
