safety and performance. It lists the main 
maintenance tasks and how often they need 
to be performed. Carry out the relevant task 
as soon as it is scheduled to be performed.
7.2 REFUELLING / EMPTYING
THE FUEL TANK
IMPORTANT Observe the precautions
provided in the engine owner's manual.
Consult the engine owner's manual
for the type of fuel to be used.
7.2.1 Refuelling
To refuel:
1. Unscrew the fuel tank filler cap 
and remove it (fig. 30).
2. Insert the funnel (fig. 30).
3. Refuel being careful not to
completely fill the tank.
4. Remove the funnel.
5. Close the fuel cap securely after 
refuelling and clean away any spills.
IMPORTANT Do not drip petrol onto the
plastic parts to avoid ruining them. In the
event of accidental leaks, rinse immediately
with water. The warranty does not cover for
damage to plastic parts of the bodywork
or the engine caused by petrol.
7.2.2 Emptying the fuel tank
NOTE
Fuel is perishable and should
not remain in the tank for more than 30
days. Empty the fuel tank before storing the
machine for long periods of time (chap. 9).
Allow the engine to cool
before emptying the fuel tank.
1. Place the machine on a flat 
surface, in the open air.
2. Place a suitable container under
the drain tube (fig. 31.A).
3. Disconnect the tube (fig. 31.A) installed 
on the fuel filter inlet (fig. 31.B).
4. Open the fuel tap (if provided)
5. Collect the fuel in a suitable container.
6. Reconnect the tube (fig. 31.A) making sure 
you position the clamp properly (fig. 31.C).
7. Close the fuel tap (if provided).
The next time the machine is used,
check that there are no fuel leaks from
the tubes, fuel stopcock or carburettor.
7.3 CHECK, TOP UP, DRAINING
OF ENGINE OIL
IMPORTANT Observe the precautions
provided in the engine owner's manual.
Consult the engine owner's manual
for the type of oil to be used.
7.3.1 Check/top-up
Always check the oil level before use.
Procedure:
• Make sure that the machine is level 
before performing the check.
• Check the oil level: according to the 
instructions in the engine manual, this 
must be between the MIN and MAX 
marks on the dipstick (fig. 32).
Do not overfill as this could cause
the engine to overheat. If the oil level
exceeds the "MAX" mark, drain until
the correct level is achieved.
7.3.2 Draining
To ensure that the machine functions 
correctly, and to guarantee a long working 
life, we recommend changing the engine 
oil at regular intervals, as indicated in the
Owner's Manual supplied with the engine.
The oil may be very hot if removed
just after the engine has been switched
off. Consequently allow the engine to
cool down for a few minutes before
proceeding to drain off the oil.
Replace the engine oil according to the frequency 
indicated in the engine owner's manual. 
Proceed as follows:
• Type "I"
1. Place the machine on a flat surface.
2. Place a suitable container under
the extension tube (fig. 33.A).
3. Hold the extension tube (fig. 
33.A) firmly in place and unscrew 
the drain plug (fig. 33.B).
4. Collect the oil in a suitable vessel.
5. Replace the drain plug (fig. 33.B) 
making sure that the gasket is in 
the right position (fig. 33.C).
6. Fully tighten holding the extension 
tube firmly in place (fig. 33.A).
7. Clean up any spills.
