Ö 

Use high-quality oil of the classes SF, SG, SH SJ or better. 

Ö 

Together with the recommended oil no other specific 
additives are needed. 

Ö 

Do not mix the oil with petrol. 

 

 

 

 

Air-cooled engines operate with higher temperatures than 
vehicle engines. When using non-synthetic multigrade oil 
types (5W-30, 10W-30, etc.) at temperatures above 4°C 
a higher than normal oil consumption occurs. The oil level 
needs to be checked more frequently. 

 

 

When using the engine at temperatures under 4°C 

synthetic oil must be used. Otherwise the engine may be 
damaged. 

 

 When using SAE 30 oil at temperatures under 10°C it 

is hard to start the engine and the cylinder bore may be 
damaged due to insufficient lubrication.

1.  Remove the oil filling plug (3).  

 

2.  Slowly pour oil into the hole. 
3.  Tighten the oil filling plug. 
4.  Wipe off oil residues/spilling. 

 
 

Remove the oil filling plug (3).

 

Oil should reach up to the edge. 

 
 

 

 

 

Ö 

Do not fill in leaded petrol, diesel or other non-approved 
fuels. 

Ö 

Do not use petrol having a smaller octance number than 
85 ROZ.

 

This may lead to severe engine damages due to 

increased engine temperatures.  

Ö 

If you frequently operate the device at high speeds, you 
should use petrol with a higher octane number.  

Ö 

The use of unleaded petrol is recommended for 
environment protection reasons. 

Ö 

Fuels have only a limited shelf-life, they are subject to 
ageing.  Outdated fuels and fuel mixtures may result in 
starting problems. Therefore, store only that quantity of fuel 
which you can use within a month. 

Ö 

Only store fuels in containers approved and identified for 
this. Keep fuel containers in a dry and safe area.  

Ö 

Make sure that fuel containers are kept out of the reach for 
children. 

 
 

 

•  Stop the engine and allow it to cool down.  
•  Wear protective gloves. 
•  Avoid eye and skin contact. 
•  Strictly follow the instructions under “Safe 

1.  Only fuel the garden shredder outdoors or in sufficiently 

ventilated rooms. 

2.  Clean the area around the filler neck.

 

Contamination in the 

tank may result in malfunction. 

3.  Carefully open the tank cap (28) to allow possible 

overpressure to relax.  

 

4.  Carefully pour fuel into the filler neck until is is approx. 4 

cm below the neck’s edge to allow the fuel space for 
expansion. 

5.  If contaminated, clean the fuel filling filter (29).  

 

6.  Close the tank cap. 

Check that the tank cap is tight. 

7.  Clean the tank cap and the area around it. 
8.  Check the tank and the fuel lines for leaks.  
9. 

 Before starting the engine take the machine and go 

away at least three metres from the fuelling place. 

 
 

 

ƒ 

Check that the machine is completely and correctly 
assembled. 

ƒ 

To avoid toppling, place the shredder on a firm horizontal 
surface. 

ƒ 

Do not place the equipment on ground which is paved or 
surfaced with gravel. 

ƒ 

The machine should only be operated in the open.

 

Always 

maintain a safe distance (at least 2 m) from walls or other 
fixed objects. 

ƒ 

Before each use, check 

− 

there are no damages at the machine 

− 

All screws are tight.
