class SE, SF or SG) Use SAE 30 or SAE 10W-30 oil.
Slowly fill up to the “FULL/MAX” mark. Do not fill
with too much oil.
CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
Check before using the machine that the oil level is
between “FULL/MAX” and “ADD/MIN” on the dip-
stick.
Remove and dry the dipstick (fig. 6, 7). Slide it
down completely and tighten it. Unscrew and pull
it up again. Read-off. If the oil level is low, fill with
oil up to the “FULL/MAX” mark.
FILL UP THE PETROL TANK
Fill with petrol before starting the motor.
Never remove the filler cap or fill or top
up with petrol while the motor is run-
ning or still warm.
Never fill the fuel tank completely full
but allow a little room for the petrol to
expand.
Always use pure unleaded petrol. You must never
use 2-stroke petrol mixed with oil.
Note that you should always remember that petrol
is a perishable commodity. Never buy more petrol
than what you can use up in 30 days.
STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Place the lawn mower on flat, firm ground. Do
not start in high grass.
2. ake sure the spark plug lead is connected to the
spark plug.
3. When starting a cold engine: Press down the
primer fully three times (fig. 8, 9). When starting
a warm engine the primer does not need to be
used. If the engine stops due to a lack of petrol,
refill and press down the primer three times.
4. Press in the Start/Stop-loop G against the steer-
ing. Note that the Start/Stop loop G must be
kept pressed-in to prevent the engine from stop-
ping (fig. 10).
5a Manual starting: Grasp the starter handle and
start the engine by pulling briskly on the starter
handle.
5b Electric starting facility (*): Start the engine by
turning the starter key clockwise. Release the
key as soon as the engine starts. Always make
short attempts at starting to prevent discharg-
ing the battery.
To facilitate starting of the engine - press down
the handlebar so that the front wheels lift slight-
ly from the ground. Do not start in tall grass.
6. To achieve the best cutting results, you should
always run the engine at full-speed.
Keep hands and feet well away from the
rotating blade(s).
Never put your hand or foot under the
blade casing or in the grass evacuation
unit while the motor is running.
STOP OF ENGINE
The motor may be very warm immedi-
ately after it is shut off.
Do not touch the silencer, cylinder or
cooling flanges as it can cause burns
and injury.
1. Release Start/Stop-loop G (fig. 10) to stop the
engine. This loop must not be disengaged (e.g.
through fixing it in the depressed position
against the steering), as the engine cannot be
stopped.
2. If the lawn mower is left unattended to, remove
the lead from the spark plug. Also remove the
starter key (*).
If the start/stop loop no longer works,
stop the engine by removing the lead
from the spark plug.
Immediately take the lawn mower to an
authorised workshop for repairs.
REAR WHEEL DRIVE (*)
Engage the drive by pressing coupling clamp I
against the steering handle. Disengage the drive by
releasing coupling clamp
I (fig. 10).
CUTTING HEIGHT
Shut off the motor before adjusting the
cutting height.
Do not set the cutting height so low that
the blade/blades can hit uneven
ground.
The mower is fitted with a single lever control for
adjusting the cutting height.
Pull the lever outwards and adjust the cutting
height to the position which is most suitable for
your lawn (fig. 11).
NOTE! When the machine is used for
"Multiclip", the two lowest cutting heights must
not be used. The "Multiclip" function does not
work if the grass is cut too short.
