Operation
Filling the Fuel Tank
Petrol is extremely flammable and explosive. A
fire or explosion from petrol can burn you and
others.
• To prevent a static charge from igniting the
petrol, place the container and/or mower
directly on the ground before filling, not in a
vehicle or on an object.
• Fill the tank outdoors when the engine is
cold. Wipe up spills.
• Do not handle petrol when smoking or
around an open flame or sparks.
• Store petrol in an approved fuel container,
out of the reach of children.
Fill the fuel tank with fresh unleaded petrol (Figure 10).
Important: To reduce starting problems, add
fuel stabilizer to the fuel all season, mixing it with
petrol less than 30 days old.

Checking the Engine Oil Level
Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Check the
engine oil level.
1. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, and fully install
the dipstick (Figure 6).
2. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level
(Figure 6). If the oil level is below the Add mark on
the dipstick, slowly pour oil into the oil fill tube to
raise the oil level to the Full mark on the dipstick.
Do not overfill. (Max. fill: 0.59 l, type: SAE 30W
