after 50 hours or every three months.
Drain the engine oil when the engine is hot.
1. Warm the engine up.
2. Switch the engine off.
3. Place a container that is large enough to collect
the used oil under the oil drain screw (10).
4. To drain the oil, remove the screw-on oil cap (9)
and the oil drain screw (10).
5. Drain the oil
6. Re-attach the oil drain screw (10) with a sealing
washer and tighten.

hole.

Dispose of the drained oil properly at a local used
oil collection point. Dumping used oil in the soil
or mixing it with waste is prohibited.
Clean the air filter (Fig. 6)
1. Release the brackets (c)
2. Remove the air filter cover (12).
3. Remove the filter element (d).
Attention:Do not use petrol or cleaning solvents
with a low flash point to clean the air filter element.
This could result in fire or explosion.
4. Clean the elements by knocking them out on a flat
surface. If heavily soiled, wash with soapy water,
then rinse with clean water and allow to air dry.
5. Attach the filter element (d).
6. Hook in air filter cover (12) and close clips (c).
If the engine is operated in very dusty environments,
clean the air filter daily or after every ten operating
hours.
Never run the engine without an air filter or with a dam-
aged air filter. This would allow dirt into the engine,
which would result in severe damage to the engine.
