Spark plug
Remove the spark plug and clean it with
a wire brush after the engine has
cooled down sufficiently. Using a feeler
gauge, set the distance to 0.7-0.8 mm
(0.030"). Replace the spark plug and be
careful not to overtighten it.
OIL CHANGE
1. Switch off the engine and let it stop
completely.
2. Disconnect the spark plug cable and keep it away from the spark plug.
3. Empty the oil into a suitable container. Tilt the lawnmower by 45 degrees and use a FUXTEC suction
pump to suck off the oil through the filler neck. Alternatively, you can tilt the mower more to drain the
oil through the filler neck.
4. Keep the engine balanced. Remove the dipstick. Slowly add approximately 0.5L of new recommended
oil (FUXTEC 4MAX 4 stroke oil) into the container until the dipstick reads the top of the container. Do
not overfill the container.
5. Check the level with the dipstick
Air Filter
Disconnect the air filter cover and remove the sponge filter. Replace the air filter to prevent objects
from entering the air intake.

Emptying the fuel tank and carburetor
Option A (Recommended):
Use a FUXTEC suction pump to suck the gasoline out of the tank or let the mower run empty.
Option B:
1) Place a manufacturer's recommended gasoline canister under the carburetor and use a funnel to
avoid spills. Tilt the lawnmower forward to prevent spillage.
2) Loosen the drain plug (GREEN in the illustration) and drain the gasoline through a funnel.
3) Tighten the drain plug after all gasoline has drained into the canister. Fasten the drain plug securely.
