Check the oil level daily before starting the engine and ensure that
the correct oil level is maintained. Refer to-‘Before Starting the
Mower’ for oil checking and filling instructions.
Change the engine oil after the first 5 hours of operation and thereafter
according to the ‘Maintenance Schedule’:-
1. Drain fuel by running the engine until the fuel tank is empty.
2. Remove the spark plug lead.
3. Allow the engine to cool.
4. Drain the oil while the engine is warm.(Not hot)
5. Tip the mower over on to its right hand side thus ensuring that
the air cleaner is kept uppermost to prevent engine damage.
6. Remove the oil filler dipstick and drain the oil into a suitable
container.
7. Refill with new oil of the recommended SAE viscosity grade.
(Refer to-‘Before Starting the Mower’)
To service the air cleaner remove the air cleaner cover (1) by release-
ing two top catches (2) and tilting away from body until lower tabs

face. If very dirty or damaged replace.

After servicing, install the cartridge in the cover. Insert the tabs on the
bottom of the cover into the slots in the bottom of the base. Tilt the
