Spark plug
The engine spark plug is located under the
ignition cable boot. When performing service,
it is important that the engine cannot start
accidentally. For this reason, always remove
the ignition cable shoe from the spark plug.
To avoid pulling the cable, the cable boot is
equipped with a special handle; see the
illustration.
Type of spark plug, see "Technical data".
Service instructions, see "Maintenance/
Electrical system".
Muffler
The engine muffler is equipped with a heat
protective cowling. Nonetheless, it still
becomes hot when the engine is running.
Avoid touching the muffler when it is warm.
Risk for burns.
Oil dipstick
The dipstick for the crankcase oil reservoir is
located on the left side of the engine. Refill
the engine oil in the hole where the dipstick
fits.
When checking the oil level, the dipstick
should not be screwed in. The machine
should be parked on level ground with the
engine stopped. Never run the engine without
the dipstick in place. The engine stops and
cannot be started if the level becomes too
low.
For normal use, we recommend SAE 10W-30
weight engine oil service SF-SG; see also the
chapter "Lubrication/Engine oil".
Oil drainage
The drainage screws for the oil reservoir are
located on either side of the engine.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Used engine oil is a health hazard and
legislation prohibits disposal on the
ground or in nature; it should always be
disposed of at a workshop or
appropriate disposal location. Avoid
skin contact; wash with soap and water
in case of spills.
