USING THE MOWER
BEFORE STARTING
FILL THE CRANKCASE WITH OIL
The lawnmower is delivered without
any oil in the engine crankcase. The
crankcase must be filled with oil before
the engine is started for the first time.
1. Remove the oil dipstick (fig. 5, 6, 7).
2. Fill the engine's crankcase with 0.55 litres of
good quality oil (service class SE, SF or SG).
Use SAE 30 or SAE 10W-30 oil.
3. Slowly fill to 'FULL/MAX'. Do not overfill.
CHECK THE OIL LEVEL
Check before using the machine that the oil level is
between 'FULL/MAX' and 'ADD/MIN' on the
dipstick. The mower should stand level.
Remove and wipe off the dipstick (fig. 5, 6, 7).
Slide it down completely and tighten it. Unscrew
and pull it up again. Read off the oil level. If the oil
level is low, fill with oil up to the 'FULL/MAX'
mark.
