    5 USING THE SNOW THROWER
    5.1 GENERAL
    Never start the engine until all the above measures under 
    ”“ASSEMBLY” på sidan 45” have been carried out. 
    Never use the snow thrower without first reading 
    and understanding the instructions and all the 
    warning and instruction stickers on the machine. 
    Always use protective goggles or a visor during 
    use, maintenance and service.
    5.2 CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL (FIG. 11)
    Fill the engine with oil before using. 
    Do not start the engine until filled with oil. The 
    engine can be seriously damaged without oil.
    1.  Place the machine on a level floor.
    2. Wipe clean around the oil dipstick. Unscrew 
    and pull it up. Wipe off the dipstick.
    3. Slide the dipstick down completely and tighten it.
    3.  Pull up the dipstick again. Read off the oil level. Top up 
    with oil to the “FULL” mark, if the level comes below 
    this mark.
    Use oil SAE 5W30-10W40 in accordance with A.P.I 
    service “SF“, “SG“ or “SH“. 
    The crankcase holds: 0.6 litres.
    5. Reinstall the oil filler cap (11:F).
    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.
    Always check the oil level before using. The snow thrower 
    must stand on level ground when checking.

    ENGLISHEN
    5.3 FILL UP THE PETROL TANK
    Always use lead-free petrol. Oil-mixed 2-stroke petrol must 
    not be used.
    NOTE! Bear in mind that ordinary lead-free petrol is 
    perishable; do not purchase more petrol than can be used 
    within thirty days.
    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. 
    Store the petrol in a cool, well ventilated place – 
    not in the house. Store the petrol well out of reach 
    for children.

    6 MAINTENANCE
    6.1 MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
    6.2 OIL CHANGE
    Change the oil the first time after 2 hours of operation, and 
    subsequently every 20 hours of operation or once a season. 
    Change oil when the engine is warm.
    The engine oil may be very warm if it is drained off 
    directly after the engine is shut off. So allow the 
    engine to cool a few minutes before draining the 
    oil.
    1.  Lean the snow thrower slightly so that the oil draining 
    plug (1:Q) is the lowest point of the engine.2.  Unscrew the oil draining plug.
    3.  Let the oil run out into a container.
    4.  Screw back the oil draining plug.
    5.  Fill with new oil: See ”“checking the engine oil level 
    (FIG. 11)” på sidan 47” above for type and amount. 
    6.3 SPARK PLUG
    Check the spark plug once a year or every hundred hours of 
    use.
    Clean or change the plug if the electrodes are burnt. The 
    engine manufacturer recommends: LD F7TC or equivalent.
    Correct spark gap: 0.7-0.8 mm.
    6.4 CARBURETTOR
    The carburettor is factory set. If adjustment is required, 
    contact an authorised service station. 
    6.5 TYRE PRESSURE
    The air pressure should be equal in both tires for best 
    performance. Be sure to keep caps on valves to prevent entry 
    of debris into the valve stem when tires are filled. 
    Recommended air pressure: 1.2 bar.
    6.6 LUBRICATION
    No service must be carried out before: 
    - The engine has stopped. 
    - The cable has been disconnected from the spark 
    plug.
    6.6.1 Linkages
    See fig. 12. Lubricate the linkages below every 10:th hour of 
    use and before long time storage. Use 10W oil.
    • Lever bearings
    • Drive belt tension arm
    • Auger belt tension arm
    6.6.2 Gearbox
    No parts inside the gearbox are to be lubricated. All bearings 
    and bushings are permanently lubricated and require no 
    maintenance.
    Lubricating these parts will only result in the grease getting 
    on to the friction wheel and disc drive plate, which could 
    damage the rubber clad friction wheel.
    For long time storage the above-mentioned parts should be 
    lightly wiped with an oily rag to prevent rust. 
    7 SERVICE AND REPAIRS
    No service must be carried out before: 
    - The engine has stopped. 
    - The starting cable has been disconnected from 
    the spark plug.
    If the instructions say that the machine is to be lifted at the 
    front and rested on the auger housing then the petrol tank 
    must be emptied.
    Empty the petrol tank outdoors when the engine is 
    cold. Do not smoke. Empty into a container 
    designed for petrol. Service item Frequency Type
