Only fill or top up with petrol outdoors,
and never smoke when filling or top-
ping up. Fill up with fuel before starting
the engine. Never remove the filler cap
or fill with petrol while the engine is
running or still warm.
Never completely fill the petrol tank. Leave an
empty space (= at least the entire filler tube plus 1
- 2 cm at the top of the tank) to allow the petrol to
expand when it warms up without overflowing.

6.2 CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
LEVEL
On delivery, the crankcase is filled with SAE 10W-
30 oil.
Check the oil level every time before using to
ensure it is correct. The machine should be
standing on level ground.
Wipe around the dipstick. Unscrew and
pull it up. Wipe the dipstick.
Push the dipstick down completely without screw-
ing it into place. Pull the dipstick up again. Read
off the oil level.
Top up with oil to the "FULL" mark if the oil level
is below this mark. See fig. 15
The oil level must never exceed the "FULL" mark.
This results in the engine overheating. If the oil
level exceeds the "FULL" mark, the oil must be
drained until the correct level is achieved.
6.3 CHECKING TRANSMISSION OIL
LEVEL
Check the oil level every time before using to
ensure it is correct. The machine should be
standing on level ground.
Read off the oil level in the reservoir (15:R). It
should be between the MAX and MIN marks. If
necessary, top up with more oil.
Type of oil: SAE 10W-30 (20W-50)
