Default advice about ggp petrol lawnmower

hello there, i have just been given a new ggp italy spa lawn mower, i guess its probably not the best make out there! anyway it don't have any instructions, what im not sure on is the type of oil i need to put in it? it appears its dry at the minute on the dip stick. then also does it just need unleaded fuel putting in, or do i have to mix it with anything? cheers in advance steve

There is an oil they sell especially for lawnmowers. It is basically
just 30 weight oil. My garden tractor works all year round, so I just
use the standard multi viscosity oil.
Your mower should work fine with regular gasoline. All mine work with
the 10% ethanol added gasoline, including the two cycle gas/oil mix
engines.

The GGP Mower needs oil suitable for a 4 stroke engine - avialble almost anywhere. Fill it to the mark on the dipstick. Use only unleaded petrol. William
