Always use unleaded petrol of a minimum 95 RON. Buy only the quantity of
fuel that you plan to use in a month. Never transport and store petrol other
than in a container suitable for the purpose, approved and labelled
accordingly.
Always refuel outdoors, never in an enclosed space or near a naked
flame or heat source. Never smoke while filling the fuel tank.
Do not unscrew the tank cap when the engine is running or when the
mower is hot.
To add fuel, unscrew the fuel filler cap.
Slowly pour the fuel into the tank using the
fuel container’s spout (fig. 7) or a funnel.
The tank’s capacity is about 1 litre. Avoid
spillages by not overfilling the tank. Leave
about 13 mm space beneath the threaded
collar to allow for fuel expansion.
If fuel should overflow, do not start the engine. Move the mower away
from the place of spillage and carefully wipe down the mower. Any
attempt at starting should be avoided until petrol vapours have
completely gone.
Replace securely the caps on the fuel tank and the fuel container and
place the latter in a secure place away from heat or direct sunlight.
Before each mowing, visually inspect the condition of the mower’s fuel
tank and its cap, the fuel delivery pipe and the fuel filter.
If a fuel leak is seen or suspected, do not start the engine. Drain the fuel
tank using a fuel suction pump and immediately contact an approved
SANLI UK service dealer for advice.
