Before you begin to mow, check to ensure that the
blade is not blunt and that none of the fasteners are
damaged.

To prevent any imbalance, replace blunt and/or
damaged blades as a set only (if applicable). To
carry out this check, first switch off the engine and
pull the spark plug boot.

that may be ejected.
8. Operation
m
CAUTION!
The engine does not come with oil in it. There-
fore, ensure that you add 0,45 liters of oil before
starting it up. Use normal, multigrade oil (SAE30).
The oil level in the engine must be checked each
time before mowing.
You will also need to fill in petrol, as this is also
not supplied upon delivery.
•
In order to avoid any unintentional start-ups of the
lawn mower, it comes equipped with an engine
brake (Fig. 1/ Item 3) which must be pulled back
before the engine can be started. When the engine
control lever is released it must return to its initial
position, at which point the engine automatically
switches off.
•
Press the engine brake lever (3) together and give
the starter cord (17) a vigorous pull. (Fig. 14)
Attention:

rotates even when dissolved motor brake lever.
Make sure that there are no body parts in danger
zone of cutting blade.

•
Open the fuel tank cap and fill the petrol tank (6)
up to the lower point of the tank inlet with about 0.8
litres of petrol. Use a funnel and a measuring con

tainer for filling. Do not overfill the tank. Use fresh,
clean unleaded fuel.
Never mix oil with petrol. Buy fuel in amounts which
can be used within 30 days in order to guarantee
its freshness.
