• Check that all protective devices have been attached properly and are not
damaged.
• Check grass collecting equipment for wear or loss of functionality.
Every 10 operating hours

16 CARE AND SERVICING OF YOUR LAWNMOWER
Regular care is the best way to guarantee a long service life and problem-free
operation. Insufficient equipment maintenance will lead to safety-related faults!
Only use original spare parts because only those guarantee safety and quality!

Cleaning (Illustration O )
IMPORTANT
During cleaning and maintenance work, do not place the mower on its side, tilt it
forwards (spark plug facing upwards) as otherwise start-up difficulties could
occur. When tilting the mower upwards make sure the ejection flap does not get
damaged. Secure the mower in its raised position!
NOTE
When tilting the mower upwards, make sure no oil or petrol escapes. Fire hazard!
Remove dirt and residual grass directly after mowing. Use a brush or cloth for cleaning.
Do not rotate the cutter bar, as otherwise motor oil is pumped into the carburettor/air
filter and start-up difficulties can occur.
IMPORTANT
Never use high-pressure cleaners or a normal water jet to clean the drive area,
engine parts (such as ignition system, carburettor etc.), seals and bearing points.
Damage or expensive repairs can be the consequence of such action.
Storage
Always keep the machine in a clean condition in a closed, dry room out of reach of
children. Always allow the engine to cool down before you store the machine in a
closed room.
Collapsing the handle (Illustration B4 + D4 )
NOTE
Before the handlebar is folded over, the cutting height must be set to position 3 (40 mm)
or higher I . The handlebar cannot be folded completely in the two lower cutting
positions.
– For space-saving storage or for transportation, either loosen the two upper wing
nuts and fold the upper section carefully forwards B4 or loosen all the four wing
nuts far enough to allow the handlebar to collapse without resistance in a Z-shape
over the engine
D4 .
The toothed fitments on the lower end of the bar must snap out of the recess
on the housing.
– Do not kink nor squeeze the throttle cables in the process.
CAUTION
When the bar is moved for transport and storage purposes, it may fold over
unintentionally during loosening of the wing nuts and release of the toothed
fitments from the recesses on the housing. In addition, crushing spots can occur
between the base and top of the bar and the housing. This may result in risk of
injury.
Transporting and securing the equipment (Illustration N )
– If the equipment has to be carried, do not hold the ejection flap! Hold the carrying
handle at the front and at the back N .
– Transport the equipment in an upright position. Collapse the guide bar to positions
B4 or D4 if necessary.
– Park the means of transport on level ground so that the equipment cannot roll
away before it is secured.
– Remove the collecting bag and secure it separately during transport
– Secure the equipment with approved load-securing devices (e.g. tie-down straps
with clamping elements) on or inside the vehicle. Tie-down straps are belt bands
made of synthetic fibres. Every tie-down strap is marked with a label. The label
contains important details for application. The information on this label must be
heeded when using the tie-down strap.
– For loaded goods that can roll, we recommend using direct strapping with four
lashing straps. Secure the wheels of the equipment in such a way that it does not
move during transportation.
NOTE
Do not tighten the belts too firmly. Fixing the equipment too firmly can cause
damage.
Maintenance of the blade
A sharp blade guarantees optimum cutting performance. Before you start mowing,
always check the condition and firm attachment of the cutting blade. The blade
attachment screw must always be tightened by an authorised workshop. If the blade
screw is too tight or too loose, the blade coupling and cutter bar can become damaged
or loose which can lead to serious injuries. A worn or damaged blade must always be
replaced.
Sharpening and balancing the blade (Illustration Q )
WARNING
The sharpening and balancing of the blade should be carried out only by an
authorized specialist workshop. An improperly sharpened or unbalanced blade
can cause severe vibrations, and damage the lawnmower.
The cutting edges of the blade must only be ground down to the mark (1) (see
illustration Q ) on the blade (ring). Warning! Keep to a grinding angle of 30°.
Your professional workshop can check this value - (grinding limit) for you!
WARNING
A blade by which the wear limit (marking) has been exceeded can break off and
spin away; this can cause severe injuries.
Replacing the blade
WARNING
The cutting blade bar must always be replaced by an authorised workshop. A
wrongly assembled cutting blade coupling or a blade screw that is tightened too
tightly or too loosely can allow the cutting blade bar to become loose and cause
severe injuries.
– Only use genuine cutter bars for replacement. Non-equivalent spare parts can
damage the machine and are a safety hazard.
– Replacement cutting tool must be marked permanently with the name and/or
company logo of the manufacturer or supplier and the part number.
