5. Before starting the equipment
5.1 Assembling the components
Some parts of the lawnmower need to be
assembled. For quick and easy assembly, read
and follow the instructions below.
Important!
You will need the following additional
tools (not supplied) for assembly, and also for
maintenance work:
•
A flat oil drip tray (for changing the oil)
•
A 1 litre measuring jug (oil/petrol resistant)
•
A petrol can
•
A funnel (suitable for the tank’s petrol filler neck)
•
Household wipes (to wipe up oil/petrol residue;
dispose of these at a filling station)
•
A petrol suction pump (plastic, available from
Einhell UK Ltd - call 0151 649 1500
(IRE 189 094 6244))
•
An oil can with hand pump (available from DIY
stores)
Assembly
1. Take the mower and attachment parts out
of the packaging and check that all parts are
present (Fig. 2).
2. Affix the lower push bar (Fig. 3a/Item 5) to
the mower housing and set the desired
working height. 3 different working heights are
available. Each peg on the lower push bar
can be inserted into a hole situated directly
opposite to it, on the mower housing, for
example A-A (Fig. 3). The lower push bar must
be equally adjusted on both sides. Now affix
the cover (Fig. 3a/Item 22) and attach the
push bar (5) using the square head screws (14)
and the star knobs (17) as shown in Figure 3a.
3. Fasten the top push bar to the bottom push
bar using a lever cam screw (Fig. 3b/Item 15)
and a star knob (Fig. 3b/Item 17) on each
side. Make sure that the lobes of the lever
cam screws are folded towards the inside so
that the high speed clamping function
remains operational.
4. Insert the grip of the starter cord (Fig. 3c/
Item 4) into the hook provided for that purpose
as shown in Figure 3c.
5. Fasten the cords to the push bar with the
supplied cable ties (Fig. 3d/Item. 12).
6. Lift the ejector flap (Fig. 4 / Item 7) with one
hand and hook in the grass bag as shown in
Figure 4.
5.2 Setting the cutting height
Important! Adjust the cutting height only when
the engine is switched off and the plug boot
has been pulled.
- 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.
- The cutting height is centrally adjusted with
the cutting height adjustor lever (Fig. 7/Item 8).
Up to 5 different cutting heights can be
selected.
- Pull the adjustor lever out and select the
desired cutting height. The lever snaps into the
desired position.
6. Operation
Note:
For detailed information on the engine
& oil, refer to the enclosed manual from
Briggs & Stratton.
Important.
The engine does not come with oil in
it. Therefore, be sure to add oil before starting the
engine. The oil level in the engine must be
checked each time before mowing (see the
Briggs & Stratton manual). You will also need to fill
the fuel tank with 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. 5a/Item 1) 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.
You can control the rotation speed of the blade
using the speed lever (Fig. 6).
Before you start mowing, you should run through
this operation several times in order to ensure that
the machine is working properly.
Whenever you need to perform any kind of
adjustment and/or repair work on your lawn
mower, wait until the blade has come to a
complete stop.
Always switch off the engine before carrying out
any adjustments, maintenance or repairs.
Note:
1. Engine brake (Fig. 5a/Item 1): Use the lever to
stop the engine. When you release the lever the
engine and the blade stop automatically. To
mow, hold the lever in the working position (Fig.
5b). Before you start to mow, check the start/stop
lever several times to be sure that it is working
properly. Ensure that the tension cable can be
smoothly operated (i.e. is not catching or kinked in
any way).
