ATTENTION
Environmental damage!
Spilled oil can pollute the environment permanently. The liq-
uid is highly toxic and can quickly lead to water pollution.
–
Fill/empty oil only on level, paved surfaces.
–
Use a filling nozzle or funnel.
–
Collect drained oil in a suitable container.
–
Wipe up spilled oil carefully immediately and dispose of
the cloth according to local regulations.
–
Dispose of oil as per local regulations.
1. Place the lawnmower on a level, even surface.
2. Unscrew the oil dipstick (14).
3. Wipe the oil dipstick (14) with a clean, lint-free cloth.
4. Re-insert the oil dipstick (14) and pull it out again. Check
the oil level without screwing the oil dipstick (14) back in.
5. The oil level must be within the middle mark on the oil
dipstick (14).
6. If the oil level is too low, add the recommended amount
of oil (max. 400 ml).
7. Then screw the oil dipstick (14) in again.
16.3
Oil change
The engine oil change should be completed annually before
the start of the season while the engine is at operating tem-
perature and shut off.
Only use engine oil (SAE 10W-30/SAE 10W-40).
1. Place the lawnmower on a level, even surface.
2. Unscrew the oil dipstick (14).
3. Using an oil pump and a hose (not included in the scope
of delivery), suck out the engine oil through the filling
nozzle.
4. Fill up with fresh engine oil and check the oil level (see
10.1).
16.4
Drain fuel with a fuel extraction pump
(Fig. 10)
1. Hold a collection bucket under the hose of the fuel ex-
traction pump (not included in the scope of delivery).
2. Unscrew and remove the fuel filler cap (7).
3. Push the hose of the fuel extraction pump into the fuel
tank (8) and drain out the fuel tank completely using the
fuel extraction pump.
4. Retighten the fuel filler cap (7).
5. To ensure that no fuel remains in the carburettor, the re-
maining fuel must be drained out of the carburettor. To
do this, place a suitable container (not included in the
scope of delivery) under the carburettor and open the
carburettor screw (23) with the aid of an open-end
wrench AF10 (not included in the scope of delivery).

16.5
Maintenance of the air filter (9a)
(Fig. 14)
DANGER
Risk of fire and explosion!
If not cleaned correctly, fuel may ignite and even explode.
This can lead to severe burns or death.
–
Only clean the air filter by knocking it out.
–
Never clean the air filter with petrol or flammable sol-
vents.
ATTENTION
Risk of damage!
Operating the engine without a filter element or with a dam-
aged filter element can cause engine damage.
–
Never run the engine without the air filter element or
with a damaged filter element. This would allow dirt in-
to the engine, which would result in severe damage to
the engine.
Fouled air filters (9a) diminish the engine output due to re-
duced air supply to the carburettor. Regular inspection is
therefore essential.
The air filter (9a) should be checked every 25 operating hours
and cleaned as required. The air filter (9a) must be checked
more often in case of very dusty air.
1. Take off the air filter cover (9) and remove the air filter
(9a).
2. Clean the air filter (9a) only by knocking it out.
3. Replace a defective air filter (9a) with a new one.
4. Put the air filter (9a) back in place and replace the air fil-
ter cover (9).
16.6
Maintaining the spark plug (12a)
(Fig. 15+16)
Check the spark plug (12a) for contamination for the first time
after 10 operating hours and clean it with a copper wire
brush if necessary. Then maintain the spark plug (12a) every
50 operating hours.
1. Pull off the spark plug connector (12) with a twisting mo-
tion (Fig. 15).
2. Remove the spark plug (12a) with a spark plug wrench
(not included in the scope of delivery).
3. Use a feeler gauge to set the gap to 0.75 mm( 0.030").
Refit the spark plug (12a) and take care not to overtight-
en it.
16.7
Engine brake lever (2) (Fig. 1, 12)
The engine is equipped with a mechanical brake which has to
be checked regularly. When releasing the engine brake lever
(2), the blade (19) must come to a standstill within 7 seconds.
A running blade (19) produces clearly perceptible wind nois-
es. The running of the blade (19) is signalled by the wind
noise generated and can thus be controlled.
NOTE
If you notice that the blade stopping device is not working
correctly, please contact the customer service or a specialist
workshop.
