Remove the oil filling plug (28).
Wipe the oil off the dipstick.
Insert the oil filling plug again into the opening (do not
tighten)
Pull the oil filling plug out again.
Check the oil level on the dipstick.
The oil level must lie between MIN and MAX.

less).

Gasoline

Utmost care is required when handling fuel.
Do not smoke. Keep away open flames (risk of
explosion).
Clean fresh non-leaded gasoline having an octane
number of 85 as a minimum.
Do not fill in leaded, old or dirty gasoline, diesel, oil-gasoline
mixture or other fuels not approved.
Do not use gasoline having a smaller octance number than
85 ROZ. This may result in severe engine damage.
The use of unleaded gasoline is recommended for
environment protection reasons.
Storing fuel (gasoline)
Fuels have only a limited shelf-life, they are subject to ageing.
Outdated fuels and fuel mixtures may result in starting
problems. Therefore, store only that quantity of fuel which
you can use within a month.
Only store fuels in containers approved and identified for this.
Keep fuel containers in a dry and safe area.
Make sure that fuel containers are kept out of the reach for
children.

• Wear protective gloves.
• Avoid eye and skin contact.
• Strictly follow the instructions under "Safe
handling with fuels".
