MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Storing the lawnmower for short periods
After mowing, please follow the actions below prior to placing the lawnmower in storage:
- Allow the engine to fully cool.
- Ensure the grass bag is empty.
- Clean all debris from under the mower deck.
Store the lawnmower on a flat and level surface, with all 4 wheels on the ground.
Store in a dry, safe place which is not accessible by children or people who are not familiar
with operation.
Storing the lawnmower for extended periods
CAUTION!
Do not empty the petrol tank in enclosed areas, near fire or when
smoking. Petrol fumes can cause explosions and fire. Always carry the product on
its gripping surfaces.
If the lawnmower is to be placed into storage at the end of the season, or if the mower is not
to be used for period longer than 6 weeks, storage maintenance must be performed on the
lawnmower.
Temperature fluctuations cause condensation, which contaminates fuel and causes starting
problems. Simply emptying the machine of fuel will prevent this.
Empty the petrol tank with a petrol suction pump, if available, or use the tipping method.
Start the engine and let it run until any remaining petrol has been used up.
Change the oil at the end of every season. To do so, remove the used engine oil from a warm
engine and refill with fresh oil.
Remove the spark plug from the cylinder head. Fill the cylinder with approx. 20ml of oil from
an oil can. Slowly pull back the starter handle, which will bathe the cylinder wall with oil, and
screw the spark plug back in.
Clean the cooling fins of the cylinder and the housing.
Be sure to clean the entire machine to protect the paint.
Store the machine in a well-ventilated place.
Maintenance schedule
WARNING!
Before you tip the lawnmower onto its side, completely empty the fuel tank using a
petrol suction pump.
Never turn the mower upside down.
Before commencing any maintenance, always disconnect the spark plug.
Performing routine maintenance correctly on your lawnmower will ensure you get years of
trouble-free use.
Please keep this manual safe for future reference.
It is recommended that the following maintenance schedule is adhered to. This will ensure the
lawnmower operates correctly and is safe to use.
