Changing the oil

• Empty the fuel tank by running the machine until the tank
is empty.
• Disconnect the HT lead from the spark plug.
• Unscrew the oil filler cap.
• Use the oil pump (accessory) to empty the oil tank.
Ask where you can dispose of surplus engine oil at your
local petrol station.
• Fill with new engine oil of a good quality. See the Technical
data section.
• Check the oil level with the dipstick on the oil filler cap.
• The oil filler cap must be completely screwed down to give
a correct picture of the oil level. If the oil level is low, fill
using engine oil up to the upper level on the dipstick.
