ENGLISH
5.2 CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL
Fill the engine with oil before using.
Do not start the engine until filled with oil. The
engine can be seriously damaged without oil.
1. Place the machine on a level floor.
2. Wipe clean around the oil dipstick. Unscrew and
pull it up. Wipe off the dipstick. See fig 6.
3.Slide the dipstick down completely and tighten
it.
4. Pull up the dipstick again. Read off the oil level. Top up
with oil to the "FULL" mark, if the level comes below
this mark.
5. Use synthetic oil SAE 0W30.
6. Reinstall the oil filler cap.
The oil level must never exceed the "FULL" mark. This
results in the engine overheating. If the oil level exceeds
the "FULL" mark, the oil must be drained until the
correct level is achieved.
Always check the oil level before using. The snow thrower
must stand on level ground when checking.
5.3 FILL UP THE PETROL TANK
Always use lead-free petrol. Oil-mixed 2-stroke petrol must
not be used.
NOTE! Bear in mind that ordinary lead-free petrol is
perishable; do not purchase more petrol than can be used
within thirty days.
Environmental petrol can be used, i.e. alkylate petrol. This
type of petrol has a composition that is less harmful for
people and nature.
Petrol is highly inflammable. Always store fuel in
containers that are made especially for this
purpose.
Store the petrol in a cool, well ventilated place –
not in the house. Store the petrol well out of reach
for children.
Only fill or top up with petrol outdoors, and never
smoke when filling or topping up. Fill with fuel
before starting the engine. Never remove the filler
cap or fill with petrol while the engine is running
or still warm.
Do not fill the petrol tank right to the top. After filling, screw
the filler cap on tightly and wipe up any spilt petrol.
5.4 START THE ENGINE
Never touch the engine components. They are very
hot during use and for up to 30 minutes after use.
Never run the engine indoors. The exhaust fumes
contain carbon monoxide, a very toxic gas.
1. Check that the auger control (1:D) is not activated.
2. Set the ignition key (1:A) to the "ON" position.
3. Set the choke (1:F) to the closed position.
Note: A warm engine does not need the choke.
4. Press the rubber bulb (1:E) 2 or 3 times. Make sure the
hole in the bulb is covered when it is pressed in.
Note: Do not use this function when the engine is warm.
5. Pull out the starter handle slowly (1:B) until you feel re-
sistance. Start the engine with a sharp pull.
6. When the engine starts, reset the choke until it is fully
open.
