Changing the Engine Oil
To change the engine oil, tip the
equipment backwards on the han-
dle bar (see ). To prevent oper-
ating fluids from leaking out, do not
lie the equipment on its side.
• Change the engine oil for the
first time after around 5 operat-
ing hours then every 50 operat-
ing hours or annually.
• Change the engine oil when the
engine is warm.
• Dispose of the used oil in an
ecofriendly manner (see “dis-
posal / environmental protec-
tion“).
1. Open the oil drain plug (34)
(female square drive) on the bot-
tom of the equipment.
2. Drain the engine oil into a suit-
able container.
3. Wipe up spilt engine oil and
screw back in the oil drain plug
(34).
4. Stand the equipment level and
refill the engine oil (see “initial
operation“).
Sharpening / Changing the
Blades
• Always have a blunt blade resharp-
ened by a specialist workshop, as an
imbalance check can be carried out
there.
• Always have a specialist workshop
change a damaged or imbalanced
blade. Incorrect installation can result
in serious injury.
Adjusting the Carburettor
The carburettor has been preset in the
factory for optimum performance. If read-
justments are required, have the adjust-
ments made by a specialist workshop.
