10.6 Oil level check

Attention: The engine oil affects the lawn
mower's efficiency and life span. Never
operate the engine without oil or with little oil. Major
engine damage can occur. The optimum viscosity
depends on where the lawn mower is used (air
temperature and altitude) and can be found in the
engine operator's manual.
Checking oil level
Observe the notes and instructions in the type-
specific engine operator's manual.
 Place lawn mower horizontally with all wheels
on the ground.
Changing Oil
The engine oil may be drained via the oil drain
screw or the oil filler opening. Blade and blower
wheel need to be removed to reach the oil drain
screw (see chap. 10.5). Especially observe the
service instructions in the separate engine
operator's manual.
When draining via oil filler opening (14): Tilt the
warm mower (with fuel tank empty and closed oil
filler) slowly over the side of the filler opening.
Remove oil filler cap and catch old oil in a
container. Wait several minutes until oil is drained.
Dispose off the old oil in accordance with local
ordinances.
After changing oil, always wash hands with a
scouring agent, soap and water.
Note: Never simply throw away used engine oil and
gear lubricant (environmental protection). Collect
used oil in authorized containers and submit to the
proper recycling facility.
