1 3.8 Sharpening the mowing blade
If you do not have the necessary expertise
or auxiliary equipment, you should have
the blade sharpened by a specialist dealer
(STIHL recommends STIHL specialist
dealers).
Operation of the machine is impaired in the
case of an incorrectly sharpened mowing
blade (incorrect sharpening angle,
imbalance, etc.), the cutting performance
(battery running time) may be reduced and
the noise emissions increased.
Sharpening instructions
● Remove the mowing blade. ( Ö 13.7)
● Cool the mowing blade during
sharpening, e.g. with water.
The blade must not be allowed to
display blue colouring, as this would
reduce its cutting quality.
● Sharpen blades evenly to prevent
vibration due to imbalance.
● Observe a sharpening angle of 30° .
● Observe the wear limits. ( Ö 13.6)
1 3.9 Storage (winter break)
Storing the lawn mower:
Remove the safety plug and the
battery.
Store the safety plug separately from the
lawn mower and out of reach of
unauthorised persons, particularly
children.
Store the lawn mower in a dry locked place
that is free of dust. Ensure that it is
protected from unauthorised use (e.g. by
children).
Only store the lawn mower in a good
operating condition. Fold the handlebar
down if necessary.
Keep all nuts, pins and screws tightly
fastened, replace danger signs and
warnings on the machine that have
become illegible and check the entire
machine for wear or damage. Replace all
worn or damaged parts.
Any machine faults must be completely
remedied prior to storage.
Note the following points when storing the
lawn mower for long periods (winter
break):
● Clean all external parts of the machine
with care.
● Thoroughly lubricate/grease all moving
parts.
Storing the battery:
● Remove battery from the battery
compartment or out of the charger.
● Clean the battery.
● Store the battery in a dry locked place
that is generally free of dust in
electrically non-conductive packaging.
Ensure that batteries are protected from
unauthorised use (e.g. by children).
● Do not store spare batteries unused –
use batteries alternately.
● For optimum battery service life,
observe the permissible temperature
range (
Ö 19.2) and store the battery at
a charge state between 20% and 40%
(2 LEDs illuminated green).
Storing the charger:
● Remove the battery and remove the
mains plug from the socket.
● Clean the charger.
● Store the charger separately from the
battery in a dry, locked and dust-free
room. Ensure that it is protected from
unauthorised use (e.g. by children).
Do not suspend the charger from the
electric cable.
Risk of injury!
The prescribed tightening torque
for the blade fastening screw must
be observed.
The retaining washer (3) must be
replaced each time the blade is
installed.
The blade fastening screw (2) must
be renewed each time the blade is
replaced.
