Checking the oil level
Notice!
Check the oil level once a day.
We recommend checking it before starting the engine. After stopping a warm
engine, wait at least 5 minutes before checking.

• Stop the engine
• Fold the control lever base up
• Switch off ignition
• Remove the ignition key and carry it with you
• Let the engine cool down
• Open the engine cover
• Clean the area around the oil dipstick with a lint-free cloth
• Pull out oil dipstick A
• Wipe it with a lint-free cloth
• Push it back in as far as possible
• Withdraw it and read off the oil level
• Close and lock the engine cover
Notice!
The oil level must be between the MAX and MIN marks. However if necessary, fill
up oil at the latest when the oil reaches the MIN mark on the oil dipstick A.
