6. BEFORE STARTING THE CULTIVATOR
ADDING OIL
The cultivator is supplied without motor oil. Before fi rst start up, add motor oil SAE30 or
15W-40 (approx 600 ml) according to the following instructions.
1. When pouring in the oil, place the cultivator on a level
surface.
2. Pull the cap with the oil dipstick out of the oil refi ll hole (Fig.
6).
3. After adding oil, put the dipstick back into the hole and
tighten it.
4. The oil level must be between the upper (MAX)
and lower (MIN) limit (Fig. 6).
Caution! DO NOT OVERFILL the oil tank, otherwise
a large amount of smoke will come out of the exhaust
when the cultivator is started up.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Check the oil level before every use of the cultivator. Add oil if necessary.
Add oil up to the MAX level mark on the oil dipstick.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Replace the oil after the fi rst 5 hours of operation and subsequently after
every 25 hours of operation.
ADDING FUEL
The suitable type of fuel for this engine is NATURAL 95
After unscrewing the fuel tank cap, add the fuel, pouring it in all the way up to the collar of the fuel tank but do not
overfi ll it.
Always add fresh, clean and approved lead-free petrol with an octane rating of at least 95.
Caution! In the event that you spill any oil or fuel on the cultivator when refi lling, wipe it away immediately.
Do not store or add fuel or handle it in any way in the vicinity of an open fi re.
Caution! Fuels mixed with alcohol or fuels with ethanol or methane additives may bind moisture to
themselves, which may result in separation during storage and the formation of acids. Subsequently during
storage the acid vapours may damage the fuel system of the engine. These fuels must not be used in the
cultivator.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: When not using the cultivator for longer than 30 days, drain the fuel tank,
start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and the carburettor are empty (the engine will stop on its
own). This will prevent future engine problems.
Before using it again, add fresh fuel into the fuel tank. For more information, see chapter Storage
instructions.
