Frequently Asked Questions - 4855 SP SOLO

How to start the Solo 4855 SP lawn mower?
For manual start, set the throttle lever to max, pull the safety bar towards the handlebar and hold it, then pull the starter cord quickly. For electric start (optional), turn the key after setting the lever to START.
How to adjust the cutting height?
Centralized adjustment: press and hold the button while pushing the handle down for lower cutting or up for higher cutting. Axle adjustment: push the release lever and move it to the desired notch.
What type of gasoline to use?
Use regular unleaded gasoline. Do not use mixed gasoline. Also follow the engine manufacturer's recommendations for oil (approx. 0.6 L).
How to empty the grass bag?
Lift the deflector flap, unhook the bag and pull it backwards. Empty it, then reinstall by lifting the deflector flap again and hooking it into the supports.
Can I use the mower without the grass bag?
Yes, but only if the deflector flap is functional (spring in good condition). The grass will be ejected downwards and to the rear.
How to maintain the cutting blade?
Turn off the engine, remove the spark plug cap and wear gloves. For sharpening or replacement, contact an authorized service center. An unbalanced blade can cause vibrations.
What if the mower does not start?
Check the fuel level, throttle lever position, spark plug, air filter and battery (if electric starter). Try starting on an already mowed surface.
How to clean the mower?
Clean the device after each use without using a water jet. Use a brush or cloth. Water can damage the ignition or carburetor.
Wheel drive not working, what to do?
Adjust the Bowden cable by turning the adjuster on the cable. If that does not solve it, check the belt or wheel condition. Consult a service center if necessary.
Where to find spare parts?
Contact an authorized service center or specialized dealer. Use only original parts to ensure safety and proper operation.

The deflector plate is held to the mower housi spring force. This causes the mowed grass to be thrown backward and downward.

Mulching with the mulch kit (optional)

When mulching, the grass cuttings are not collected, but are left on the lawn. The grass mulch prevents the soil from drying out, and supplies it with nutrients.

The best results are obtained by cutting back regularly by about 2 cm. Only young grass with a soft leaf texture decomposes quickly.

■ Grass height before mulching: 8 cm maximum
■ Grass height after mulching: 4 cm minimum
