Use oil according to the table below.
Use oil without any additives.
Do not fill with too much oil. This can cause the
engine to overheat.
Change oil when the engine is warm.
The engine oil may be very hot if it is
drained off directly after the engine is
shut off. Therefore allow the engine to
cool a few minutes before draining the
oil.
1. Unscrew the oil drain plug (fig. 9).
2. Collect the oil in a collection vessel. Then take
the oil to a recycling station. Do not spill any oil
on the drive belts.
3. Screw in the oil drain plug.
4. Remove the dipstick and fill up with new oil.
Oil quantity: 1.4 l
5. After filling up the oil, start the engine and idle
for 30 seconds.
6. Check to see if there is any oil leakage.
7. Stop the engine. Wait for 30 seconds and then
check the oil level in accordance with 4.2.
5.5 Fuel filter (7:Q)
Replace the fuel filter every season. Check for fuel
leaks once the new filter has been installed.
5.6 Belt transmissions
After 5 hours of operation, check that all the belts
are intact and undamaged.
5.7 Steering
The steering must be checked/adjusted after 5
hours of operation and thereafter every 25 hours of
operation.
5.7.1 Checks
Briefly turn the steering wheel back and forth.
There must be no mechanical clearance in the
steering.
5.7.2 Adjustment
Tension the steering cables by tightening up the
nut. Important! The screws in the ends of the cable
should be held firmly during adjustment so that the
cable is not twisted. Using an adjustable wrench or
similar, grasp the key handle on the screws in the
ends of the cable.
Adjust the steering cables until all play is removed.
Do not tension the steering cables too hard. Other-
wise the steering will be heavy and wear and tear
on the cables will increase.
5.8 Battery
Never overcharge the battery. Over-
charging can damage the battery.
Do not short-circuit the battery’s termi-
nals. Sparks occur which can result in
fire. Do not wear metal jewellery which
can come into contact with the battery
terminals.
In the event of damage to the battery
casing, cover, terminals or interference
to the strip covering the valves, the bat-
tery should be replaced.
The battery is a valve-regulated battery with 12 V
nominal voltage. The battery fluid does not need to
and cannot be checked or topped up. The only
maintenance that is required is charging, for exam-
ple after extended storage.
The battery must be fully charged be-
fore being used for the first time. The
battery must always be stored fully
charged. If the battery is stored while
discharged, serious damage will occur.
5.8.1 Charging with the engine
The battery can be charged using the engine’s gen-
erator as follows:
1. Install the battery in the machine as shown be-

tion device for the exhaust fumes.
3. Start the engine according to the instructions in
the user guide.
4. Allow the engine to run continuously for 45
minutes.
5. Stop the engine. The battery will now be fully
charged.
5.8.2 Charging using battery charger
When charging using a battery charger, a battery
charger with constant voltage must be used.
Contact your dealer to purchase a battery charger
with constant voltage.
The battery can be damaged if a standard type
battery charger is used.
5.8.3 Removal/Installation
The battery is placed under the engine casing. See
fig. 11. During removal/installation of the battery,
