trating water (ignition system, carburettor...)

tions).
WARNING!
Risk of fire and explosion from es-
caped fuel!
The fuel tank must be drained before
draining the oil.
ADVICE
Drain the old oil with the engine still
warm. Warm oil drains more quickly and
more completely.
1. In order to empty the fuel tank, run the engine
until it stops because it has run out of fuel.
2. Disconnect the spark plug connector (6-1).
3. Unscrew the oil dipstick (6-2).
4. Place a suitable container under it to catch the
oil (6-3).
5. Tip the engine sideways over the collecting
container so that all the oil can fully drain out
of the oil filler pipe (6-4).
6. Bring the engine back into the horizontal po-
sition.
7. Fill in new oil (SAE 10W-30, fill volume: 0.55
l) (4).
8. Screw the oil dipstick back in.
ADVICE
Dispose of used oil in an eco-friendly
manner.
