General

WARNING! Running an engine in a confined
!
or badly ventilated area can result in death
due to asphyxiation or carbon monoxide
poisoning.
Fuel and fuel fumes are highly inflammable
and can cause serious injury when inhaled
or allowed to come in contact with the skin.
For this reason observe caution when
handling fuel and make sure there is
adequate ventilation.
The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot
and may contain sparks which can start a
fire. Never start the machine indoors or near
combustible material!
Do not smoke and do not place any hot
objects in the vicinity of fuel.

Fuel

NOTICE! The machine is equipped with a four-stroke
engine. Make sure that there is always sufficient oil in the
oil tank.
Petrol
• Use good quality unleaded or leaded petrol.
• The lowest octane recommended is 90 (RON). If you run
the engine on a lower octane grade than 90 so-called
knocking can occur. This gives rise to a high engine
temperature, which can result in serious engine damage.
• Use low-emission petrol, also known as alkylate petrol, if
it is available.
Engine oil
NOTICE! Check the oil level before starting the lawn mower.
A too low oil level can cause serious damage to the engine.
• See instructions in the section "Maintenance".
• The engine oil should be changed the first time after 5
hours running time. Refer to Technical Data for
recommendations on which oil type to use. Never use oil
intended for two-stroke engines.

FUEL HANDLING

Fueling

!
Never start the machine:
• If you have spilt fuel or engine oil on the machine. Wipe off
the spill and allow the remaining fuel to evaporate.
• If you have spilled fuel on yourself or your clothes, change
your clothes. Wash any part of your body that has come in
contact with fuel. Use soap and water.
• If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaks
from the fuel cap and fuel lines.

Transport and storage

• Store and transport the machine and fuel so that there is
no risk of any leakage or fumes coming into contact with
sparks or open flames, for example, from electrical
machinery, electric motors, electrical relays/switches or
boilers.
• When storing and transporting fuel always use approved
containers intended for this purpose.
Long-term storage
• When storing the machine for long periods the fuel tank
must be emptied. Contact your local petrol station to find
out where to dispose of excess fuel.
WARNING! Always stop the engine and let it
cool for a few minutes before refuelling. The
engine should be switched off, and the stop
switch in STOP position.
Use a petrol can at all times to avoid
spillage.
When refuelling, open the fuel cap slowly so
that any excess pressure is released gently.
Clean the area around the fuel cap.
Tighten the fuel cap carefully after refuelling.
Negligence may lead to the start of a fire.
Move the machine at least 3 m from the
refuelling point before starting it.
