CAUTION: The engine manual indicates
what type of oil and fuel to use.
Oil
CAUTION: THE MACHINE IS SUPPLIED
WITHOUT OIL. Add engine oil before
starting the machine. The tank's capacity is
about 0,6 litres (56 - 56 EL) - 0,95 litres (62-
70 ELD) - 1,1 litres (72 ELDT).
CAUTION: Running the engine with
insufficient oil can cause serious engine
damage. Be sure to check the engine on
a level surface with the engine stopped.
Then unscrew the cap (A, Fig. 29). With the
engine stopped, check its oil level which must
be between the MIN and MAX marks on the
dipstick.
Add the engine oil slowly to avoid overflowing,
as the engine oil tank capacity is small.
Every 10 hours, check the engine oil level and
replenish oil up to the top of the oil filler neck if
the engine is operated for more than 10 hours
continuously.
Use 4-stroke, or an equivalent high detergent,
premium quality motor oil certified to meet or
exceed U.S. automobile manufac turer 's
