be affected.
- Put unused fuel in an airtight vessel and store it in
a dark, cool room.
Check before operation
• Check all sides of the engine for oil or fuel leaks.
• Check the engine oil level.
• Check the fuel level – the fuel tank (21) should be at
least half-full.
• Check the air filter condition (see section 14.2).
• Check the condition of the fuel lines.
• Make sure that the spark plug connector is attached
to the spark plug.
• Look for signs of damage.
• Check that all protective covers are in place and all
screws, nuts and bolts are tightened.

9.1 Filling up with gearbox oil (Fig. 1)
m Attention!
The petrol motor hoe is delivered without gearbox
oil. Therefore, ensure that you add oil before start-
ing it up. Use multigrade oil (SAE 15W-40) for this.
An oil level that is too low can damage the gearbox.
1. Place the petrol motor hoe on a level, even sur-
face.
2. Unscrew the gearbox oil filling screw (17).
3. Fill the tank with oil using a funnel*. Note the max.
filling capacity of 1 litres. Carefully fill the oil up to
the lower edge of the filling port.
4. Screw the gearbox oil filling screw (17) back in.
9.2 Filling up with engine oil (Fig. 1)
m Attention!
The petrol motor hoe is delivered without engine
oil. Therefore, ensure that you add oil before start-
ing it up. Use multigrade oil (SAE 15W-40) for this.
Check the oil level regularly before commissioning. An
oil level that is too low can damage the engine.
1. Place the petrol motor hoe on a level, even sur-

2. Unscrew the oil filler plug with oil dipstick (23).
3. Fill the tank with engine oil using a funnel*. Note
the max. filling capacity of 600 ml. Carefully fill the
oil up to the lower edge of the filling port.
4. Wipe the oil filler plug and the oil dipstick (23) with
a clean, lint-free cloth.
5. Reinsert the oil filler plug and oil dipstick (23) and
check the oil level without screwing the dipstick
tight again.
6. The oil level must be within the middle mark on
the oil dipstick.
7. If the oil level is too low, add the recommended
amount of oil (max. 600 ml).
8. Then screw the oil filler plug with oil dipstick (23)
back in.
9.3 Fill the air filter housing with oil (Fig. 14)
Use oil type SAE 10W-30 /10W-40 for this. Only fill the
oil into the container provided for this purpose.
1. Loosen the wing nut (20a) on the air filter cover
(20).
2. Remove the air filter cover (20).
3. Fill the container with oil up to the mark.

9.4 Filling up with petrol (Fig. 1)
m DANGER!
Risk of fire and explosion!
When filling, fuel may ignite and even explode. This
can lead to severe burns or death.
- Switch off the engine and let it cool down.
- Keep heat, flames and sparks away.
- Only fill up with fuel outdoors.
- Wear protective gloves.
- Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
- Start the product at a distance of at least 3 m from
the fuel filling point.
- Watch out for leaks. If petrol is leaking, do not start
the engine.
m Attention!
The petrol motor hoe is delivered without petrol. It
is therefore essential to fill with petrol before com-
missioning. Use Super E10 petrol for this.
1. Clean the area surrounding the filling area. Impuri-
ties in the tank lead to operational faults.
2. Carefully open the tank cover so that any possible
overpressure can be relieved.
