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.

Fueling

• Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded gasoline with a

minimum of 87 octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline.

Purchase fuel in quantities that can be used within 30

days to assure fuel freshness

WARNING! Always stop the engine and

let it cool for a few minutes before

refueling. The engine should be

switched off.

Use a fuel can at all times to avoid

spillage.

Fill fuel tank to bottom of tank filler neck.

Do not overfill. Use fresh, clean, regular

unleaded gasoline with a minimum of 87

octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline.

Purchase fuel in quantities that can be

used within 30 days to assure fuel

freshness.

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

refueling. Negligence may lead to the

start of a fire.

Never start the machine:

• If you have spilled fuel or engine oil on the machine,

wipe off the spillage and allow 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.

Engine oil

CAUTION! 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. Never use oil intended for

two-stroke engines.

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 gas station

to find out where to dispose of excess fuel.

• Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative to avoid

tacky deposits during storage. Add stabilizer to the

fuel in the tank or the storage container. Always follow

the mix ratio found on stabilizer container. Run the

engine for at least 10 minutes after adding the

stabilizer so that it will reach the carburetor. Do not

empty the gas tank and carburetor if using fuel

stabilizer.

CAUTION! Alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or

using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which

leads to separation and formation of acids during

storage.

Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine

while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel

system should be emptied before stor age of 30 days

or longer. Empty the gas tank, start the engine and let it

run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use

fresh fuel next season. Never use engine or carburetor

cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage

may occur.
