• Check the device before each use for
obvious defects such as loose, worn or
damaged parts. Ensure that all nuts,
bolts and screws are rmly in place.
• Check the covers and protective de-
vices (
2, 8, 16, 20) for damage
and correct t. Replace these if neces-
sary.
 Replacingtheairlter
Never run the device without an air
lter. Dust and dirt may otherwise
enter the engine and cause dama-
ge.
Removing the air lter
1. Disconnect the spark plug connector
( 12) (see “Spark plug maintenance”).
2. Open the air lter box (10).
3. Remove the air lter (11).
4. Clean the air lter (11) in a soap soluti-
on.
5. Allow the air lter (11) to dry. Put a
few drops of fresh engine oil into the
air lter.
6. Replace the faulty air lter with a new
air lter (see „Spare parts/Accesso-
ries“).
Inserting the air lter
1. Insert the air lter (11) into the air lter
box (10).
2. Close the air lter box (10) back up.
Spark plug maintenance
Worn spark plugs, or a spark plug
gap that is too large, will lead to a
reduction in engine power.
1. Remove the spark plug connector (12)
by pulling and turning the spark plug
(13).
2. Unscrew the spark plug (13) coun-
ter-clockwise with the enclosed
spark plug wrench (
27).
3. Check the spark plug gap with the help
of a feeler gauge (available from spe-
cialised dealers). The spark plug gap
must be 0.7-0.8 mm.
4. Reset the gap if necessary, by carefully
bending the ground/side electrode of
the spark plug.
5. Clean the spark plug with a wire brush.
6. Insert the cleaned and set spark plug or
replace a damaged spark plug with a
spare spark plug (
26) (recommen-
ded tightening torque 20 Nm, deter-
mined with torque wrench) (see “Spare
parts/accessories”).
Changing the engine oil
Change the engine oil when the
petrol tank is empty and the engine
is warm.
• Perform the rst engine oil chan-
ge after about 5 operating hours
and then every 50 operating
hours or annually.
• Dispose of the used oil in an
environmentally-responsible way
(see „Disposal/Environmental
Protection”).
1. Disconnect the spark plug connector
(
12) (see “Spark plug maintenan-
ce”).
2. Open the oil tank cap (
19).
3. Pump out the engine oil with an oil
pump (not included in delivery).
3. Top up the engine oil (see “Filling the
engine oil”).
