Preparation
Adding and checking the oil
IMPORTANT: The motor of this mower is packed with NO OIL in the motor.
Prior to starting the motor, Oil MUST be added to the sump of the motor.
Failure to add sucient oil will result in damage to the motor which is NOT
covered under the warranty of the mower.
On a new mower, the motor needs to be lled with 350ml of SAE 10W/30
engine oil.
Each time the mower is used, the oil level should be checked and if low, add
sucient oil to ensure the oil level is to the full mark on the oil dipstick (17).
1. Position the lawn mower on a at and level surface. Clean the area directly
around the oil ller cap (17).
2. Remove the oil ller cap (17) by unscrewing it in an anti-clockwise
direction, and lift the cap outwards (Fig M).
Clean the oil dipstick (17) with a clean cloth, cleaning away any visual oil.
NOTE: The cap is a full threaded t.
3. FOR A NEW MOWER, add 350ml of SAE 10W/30 engine oil. Before replacing
the dip stick / ller cap, allow a minute or so to allow the oil in the ller tube
to fully drain of oil.
4. For both a new mower and also a previously used mower, measure the
amount of oil in the motor by re-inserting the oil dipstick back on top of
the ller tube, BUT DO NOT screw the cap in place.
5. After a few seconds, remove and inspect the oil level on the bottom of the
oil dipstick (17). (Fig N)
6. The oil level should be between the low and maximum marked section of
the oil dipstick (17) (Fig O). If the oil level is sucient replace the oil cap by
inserting and screwing back in the oil ller tube in a clockwise direction
until rm.
7. If the oil level is insucient, i.e. the oil level is not on the marked section of
the oil dipstick (17), add further oil in 50ml intervals and repeat steps 4, 5, 6,
and 7 until the correct oil level is obtained.
Always ensure the oil ller cap (17) is rmly locked in place before the
motor is started. Do not over ll with oil above the maximum mark.
Only use SAE 10W/30 engine oil.
