a) If the lawn mower strikes an object.
b) If the motor stops suddenly
c) If the blade is bent (do not align!)
d) If the motor shaft is bent (do not align!)
Replacing the mowing blade at the end of the mowing season. Always have the mowing blade
replaced by a customer service center (measurement of imbalance).
Unbalanced blades will cause the lawn mower to vibrate violently - risk of accident!
Check of grass catcher and any damaged parts
Check the grass catcher for signs of wear at more frequent intervals.
Replace any worn-out or damaged parts.
Only use original spare parts for maintenance.
The element exposed to heaviest wear is the blade. Check the condition of the blade and its
fixture at regular intervals. When the blade is worn out it must be replaced. If excessive vibration
of the lawn mower should occur, it is a sign of the blade not being properly balanced or having
been deformed by impact. In such case, replace the blade.
