Before you begin.

WARNING! The following procedures must be carried out before you

start the engine of your mower.

1. Fill oil sump with oil.

The mower is NOT supplied with oil in the engine, however, a container with the

correct amount of oil (600ml) is supplied. It is essential that this is added before

starting the engine for the rst time.

Firstly, remove the warning label from under the dipstick, then remove the dipstick and

slowly pour the entire contents of the container into the engine via the oil ller. Replace the

dipstick and tighten.

Before you use the mower each time, check the oil level and if necessary top up with

SAE30 engine oil. To check the oil level, just unscrew the yellow dipstick, wipe with a

clean rag and replace into the oil ller, but do not screw it back in place, and remove

again. The oil level must be on or just below the MAX mark on the dip stick.

Sanli LawnBeetle User Guide 9

Fill fuel tank with 95 octane regular unleaded petrol.

Petrol is highly ammable so

extreme caution must be taken

when handling it. Always store

petrol in approved containers and

you must ensure that you use

fresh petrol that is less than three

months old. Do not mix oil with

petrol.

To put petrol in the fuel tank,

rstly remove the warning label

fromunderthepetrolcap.It’s

best to ll the tank using a clean

funnel, but never ll it completely.

Instead,leaveatleast13mmfrom

the bottom of the ller neck to

allowforexpansion.Ensurethat

you securely tighten the petrol

cap after lling.

3. Oil changing.

Sanli recommends that the rst oil change is carried out after the rst 5 hours of mower

use. Thereafter, change the oil after every 25 hours of use or at least once a year. Also

check your oil level before mowing every time to ensure that the engine is being fully

protected. Sanli mowers run on SAE30 engine oil.

Before changing the oil, leave the engine running outdoors for several minutes to warm

the oil and make it more uid. Warning: parts of the engine will become very hot and

can cause severe burns.

Remove the spark plug cap and unscrew the oil level dip stick. Place a suitable

container beneath the mower’s oil ller pipe and tilt the mower onto its side with the air

lter and carburettor uppermost. Allow the oil to drain completely into the container.

Return the mower back onto its four wheels and ll the engine with new SAE30 engine

oil as described on page 8.
