9.1 Filling up with petrol (Fig. 8)
m Attention!
The machine is delivered without petrol. It is
therefore essential to fill with petrol before com-
missioning. Use Super E10 petrol for this.
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. Do not refuel the
machine on the transport vehicle.
- Wear protective gloves.
- Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
- Start the machine at a distance of at least 3 m from
the fuel filling point.
Note: Use a fuel filter (4a). The fuel filter insert (4a)
is a filter cup which is located directly under the fuel
filler cap (4) and filters all the fuel filled in.
1. Clean the area surrounding the filling area. Impu-
rities in the fuel tank (5) lead to operational faults.
2. Carefully open the fuel filler cap (4) so that any
possible overpressure can be relieved.
3. Fill the fuel tank (5) with petrol (Super E10) using
a funnel (not included in scope of delivery). Use a
fuel filter insert (4a). Note the max. filling capacity
of 2.8 litres. Carefully fill the petrol up to the lower
edge of the filling nozzle.
4. Close the fuel filler cap (4) again. Ensure that the
fuel filler cap (4) is tightly sealed.
5. Clean the fuel filler cap (4) and the surroundings.
6. Check the fuel tank (5) and fuel lines for leaks.
7. Move at least three meters away from the refuel-
ling area before starting the engine (10).
8. Do not use petrol that has already been used or
that is contaminated. Do not allow dirt or water to
enter the fuel tank (5).
9.2 Filling up with engine oil (Fig. 8, 9)
m Attention!
The machine is delivered without engine oil. There-
fore, ensure that you add oil before commission-
ing. Use multigrade oil (SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40
(depending on the operating temperature) for this.
Note: Check the oil level regularly before commis-
sioning. An oil level that is too low can damage the
engine.
1. Place the machine on a level, even surface.
2. Unscrew the oil dipstick (13).
3. Fill the tank with engine oil using a funnel (not in-
cluded in scope of delivery). 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 dipstick (13) with a clean, lint-free
cloth.
5. Reinsert the oil dipstick (13) and check the oil lev-
el without screwing the oil dipstick (13) tight again.
6. The oil level must be within the middle mark on
the oil dipstick (13).
7. If the oil level is too low, add the recommended
amount of oil (max. 600 ml).
8. Then screw the oil dipstick (13) in again.
9.3 Lubricating the tamping system (Fig. 10)
Lubricating oil is distributed into the entire tamping
system by the vibrations of the machine. While the
machine is operating, the oil goes into the crank-
case from the bottom of the machine through the
boreholes in the piston. The oil level in the tamping
system must always be kept at the correct level to
ensure effective tamping operation.
Remark: If the machine is transported horizontally or
has just been used, it must be stood upright for 15 min-
utes before the oil level can be checked. This allows
the oil to settle and provides a better measured value.
1. Place the machine on a level, even surface. Tilt the
machine so that a right angle is formed to the floor.
2. Remove contamination in the area of the sight
glass of the rammer foot oil drain screw (14).
3. Check the oil level using the sight glass of the
rammer foot oil drain screw (14). The tamping
system lubrication is OK when the oil sight glass
shows about 1/2 - 3/4 full.
4. If no oil is visible, refill with oil.
5. Tilt the machine forwards until it rests on the
transport roller (24).
6. Remove the rammer foot oil drain screw (14) using
a socket spanner size 24 mm and a ratchet span-
ner (not included in the scope of delivery).
7. Fill the oil using a funnel (not included in scope of
delivery). Note the max. filling capacity of 800 ml.
Use multigrade oil (SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40 (de-
pending on the operating temperature)) for this.
8. Then screw the rammer foot oil drain screw (14)
back in. Tighten the rammer foot oil drain screw
(14) with a torque of 9 Nm (6 ft-lbs.).
9. Place the machine upright again.
NOTE: Do not overfill the tamping system with oil. Too
much oil can result in a hydraulic lock in the tamping
system. This can result in faulty operation and dam-
age to the clutch of the engine, the tamping system
and the rammer foot.
9.4 Rammer foot (18) (Fig. 1)
With a new machine, before any commissioning or
after installation of a new rammer foot (18), all fixing
nuts must be tightened with an open-end spanner AF
19 mm (not included in the scope of delivery). When
using a torque wrench (not included in the scope of
delivery), the tightening torque is 86 Nm.
