General
Fuel
P
etrol
•
Use good quality unleaded or leaded petrol.
• The lowest octane recommended is 90 (RON). If you
run the engine on a lo
wer 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 a
v
ailable.
Engine oil
•
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.
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
e
vaporate.
• If you have spilt 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 naked flames, for example, from
electrical machinery, electric motors, electrical relays/
switches or boilers.
• When storing and transporting fuel always use
appro
v
ed 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! 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.
NOTICE! The machine is equipped with a four-stroke
engine. Make sure that there is always sufficient oil in
the oil tank.
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".
!
WARNING! Always stop the engine and
let it cool for a few minutes before
refuelling.
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.
