Frequently Asked Questions - 4852 VS ALU SOLO

How to start the engine of the Solo 4852 VS ALU lawn mower?
For manual start, pull the safety bar towards the handlebar and hold it, then quickly pull the starter cable. For electric start, turn the ignition key to the right. Make sure the blade is mounted and the grass catcher or deflector flap is in place.
How to adjust the cutting height?
The cutting height can be adjusted centrally or by axle. For central adjustment, hold the button and push or pull the handle. For axle adjustment, push the release lever and move it left or right. Make sure all wheels are on the same notch.
How to empty the grass catcher?
Lift the deflector flap, unhook the catcher by pulling it backward, empty it, then reattach it to the supports. The level indicator signals when the catcher is full.
What to do if the engine does not start?
Check the fuel level, set the throttle lever to 'Start', engage the safety bar, check the spark plug and the air filter. Make sure the blade rotates freely and that the starter battery (if applicable) is charged.
How to use the mulching kit?
Remove the grass catcher, lift the deflector flap and insert the mulching kit into the discharge opening until it clicks. For best results, mow regularly cutting only 2 cm maximum and maintaining a grass height of at least 4 cm after mowing.
How to maintain the cutting blade?
The blade should be sharpened or replaced by an authorized professional if worn or damaged. An unbalanced blade causes vibrations. Wear gloves when handling and always turn off the engine before any manipulation.
What engine oil to use?
Follow the engine manufacturer's recommendations. The oil quantity is approximately 0.6 liters. Use oil suitable for 4-stroke engines. Dispose of used oil at a recycling center.
How to store the lawn mower in winter?
Let the engine cool down, drain the fuel tank, remove the spark plug, clean the appliance and store it in a dry and frost-free place. Recharge the starter battery occasionally if applicable.
What to do in case of abnormal vibrations?
Stop the engine immediately and check the cutting blade. If it is damaged or unbalanced, have it replaced by a professional. Vibrations may also come from a deformed engine shaft.
Does the warranty cover wear parts?
No, wear parts (blade, belts, etc.) are not covered by the warranty. The legal warranty covers material and manufacturing defects. Keep your purchase receipt and warranty card for any claims.

The defl ector plate is held to the mower housing by 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
