The mower is supplied without oil in the
engine. Refer to the B&S engine manual
before starting the engine for the first time.
Firstly, remove the warning label
from under the dipstick, then
remove the dipstick and slowly
pour SAE30 or 10W/30
lawnmower grade engine oil int
the engine via the oil filler (as directed by
thr B&S engine manual).
Replace the dipstick and tighten.
Before you use the mower each
time, check the oil level (fig. 2) and
if necessary top up with SAE30
or 10W/30 oil. To check the oil level,
unscrew the yellow dipstick, wipe
with a rag and replace into the oil
filler (do not screw back in place),
remove the dipstick again and
check the level.
The oil level must be between the
min and max marks on the dipsick
(fig.3). Replace the dipstick and
screw into place.
Petrol is highly flammable so
extreme caution must be taken when
handling it. Always store petrol in
approved containers and you must
ensure that you use fresh petrol that it
less than 4-6 weeks old. Do not mix oil
with petrol.
To put petrol in the fuel tank, firstly
remove the warning label from
under the petrol cap. It’s best to fill
the tank using a clean funnel, but
never fill it completely (fig. 4).
Instead, leave at least 13mm from
the bottom of the filler neck to
allow for expansion. Ensure that
you securely tighten the petrol cap
after filling. (Funnel & fuel not
supplied).
