THE ENVIRONMENT
In order to protect the environment, we recom-
mend that the following points should be given
special consideration:
• Always use pure unleaded petrol.
• Always use a funnel and/or a petrol can with a
level control to avoid spillage when refilling the
fuel tank.
• Do not fill the fuel tank completely.
• Do not overfill with engine and/or transmission
oil (see "Instructions for Use" for correct quan-
tities.
• When changing the oil, ensure that all the used
oil is collected. Avoid spillage. Take the used oil
to a recycling unit.
• Do not dispose of used oil filter in a rubbish bin.
Take it to a recycming unit.
• Do not dispose of used lead-acid batteries in a
rubbish bin. Take them to a battery collection
point for recycling (applies to battery-powered
machines and machines with battery start).
• Replace the silencer if faulty. When carrying out
repairs, always use original spare parts.
• If the machines was originally equipped with a
catalyser which is now faulty, a new one must
be fitted when the silencer is replaced.
• Always seek professional help when the carbu-
rettor requires adjustment.
• Clean the air filter according to the directions
given in "Instructions for Use".
• When, after many years of service, your
machine needs to be replaced or is no longer
