WARNING
Never work on or touch conducting parts on the ig-
nition unit with the engine running. Always pull the
spark plug boot from the spark plug before starting
any work of care or maintenance. Never perform any
work on the machine while it is running. Any work not
described in these Operating Instructions must be
performed by an authorized service workshop only.
Wheel axles and wheel hubs
These should be lightly greased once a season.
Blade
For safety reasons you should only ever have your
blade sharpened, balanced and mounted by an au-
thorized service workshop. For optimum results it is
recommended that the blade should be inspected
once a year.
Change the blade (Fig. 39 + 40)
When changing the cutting tool, only use original re-
placement parts.
Wear gloves to avoid cut injuries while changing the
blade.
Never install another blade.
• Remove the ignition key.
• Remove the screw (C) to replace the blade (E).
•
Install everything as described in fig. 39. Fasten
the screw correctly. The fastening torque in 65 Nm.
Replace the screw C and washer D, as well, if you
replace the knife.
Checking the oil level
m
CAUTION! Never run the engine with no or too lit-
tle oil. This could cause severe damage to the engine.
Use only SAE30 engine oil.
Check the oil level (Fig. 14):
• Position the lawnmower on a straight, level surface.
• Remove the ignition key (10)
• Unscrew buttons 12 and 2
•
Remove the tilt protection (fig. 16)
• Fold the body up (fig. 2)
• Remove the oil dipstick (21) by turning it to the left,
then wipe off the dipstick.
• Screw in the dipstick up to the limit stop again in the
filling nozzle.
• Pull out the dipstick and read the oil level horizon-
tally. The oil level must be positioned between the
max and min of the oil dipstick (21).
Oil change (Fig. 32)
• The motor oil change should be completed annu-
ally before the start of the season while the motor
is at operating temperature and shut off.
• Only use motor oil (SAE 30).
Always keep warning and information stickers clean
and readable. Damaged or missing stickers must be
replaced by new, original plates. If a component is
replaced with a new component, ensure that the new
component is provided with the same stickers.
For safety reasons, fuel-carrying components (fuel
line, fuel cock, fuel tank, tank cap, connections, etc.)
must be checked regularly for damage and leaks and
replaced by a technician if necessary.
Before starting work on or near electrical compo-
nents, the negative (–) cable must be disconnected
from the battery.
The machine is equipped with numerous safety de-
vices. These devices must not be removed or modi-
fied (bypassed, etc.) and must be checked at regular
intervals. Operations on the safety devices must only
be carried out by a technician.
Ensure that all nuts, pins and screws, especially the
blade fastening screw, are securely tightened, so that
the machine is in a safe operating condition.
For safety reasons, worn or damaged parts must be
replaced immediately.
Check the grass catcher unit (e.g. grass catcher box,
discharge chute) regularly for wear, damage or loss
of functionality.
Particular care is required when working under the
machine, due to the weight of the ride-on mower. If
necessary, contact a specialist dealer.
Check the secure fastening of the front and rear
wheels.
Always maintain the ride-on mower and the attach-
ments in perfect operating condition. All safety de-
vices must be present and be in perfect operating
condition.
Ensure that the tyres have the correct tyre pressures.
The tyre pressures specified in the instruction manu -
al must not be exceeded.
Only perform work on the cutting unit when wearing
thick work gloves and exercising extreme care.
Check the function of the brakes at regular, short in-
tervals and, if necessary, have the required adjust-
ments or maintenance operations performed by a
technician.
