ENENGLISH

Environmental petrol can be used, i.e. alkylate petrol. This type of petrol has a composition that is less harmful for people and nature.

Petrol is highly inflammable. Always store fuel in containers that are made especially for this purpose.

Only fill or top up with petrol outdoors, and never smoke when filling or top- ping up. Fill up with fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the filler cap or fill with petrol while the engine is running or still warm.

Never completely fill the petrol tank. Leave an empty space (= at least the entire filler tube plus 1

-2 cm at the top of the tank) to allow the petrol to expand when it warms up without overflowing. See fig. 8.

4.2 Checking the engine oil level

On delivery, the crankcase is filled with SAE 10W- 40 oil.

Check the oil level every time before using to ensure it is correct. The machine should be standing on level ground.

Wipe around the dipstick. Unscrew and pull it up. Wipe the dipstick.

Pro 16, Pro 20, Pro25:

Push the dipstick down completely and screw into place.

Unscrew and pull the dipstick up again. Read off the oil level.

Pro Svan:

Push the dipstick down completely without screw- ing it into place. Pull it up again and read off the oil level.

Top up with oil to the “FULL” mark if the oil level is below this mark. See fig. 9-11.

The oil level must never exceed the “FULL” mark. This results in the engine overheating. If the oil level exceeds the “FULL” mark, the oil must be drained until the correct level is achieved.
