Working Instructions

General Working Instructions

• As far as possible, mow the lawn when it is dry in order to protect the turf.
• Set the cutting height such that the equipment is not overloaded.
• Run the equipment at walking speed in lines that are as straight as possible. For uninterrupted mowing, the lines should always overlap by a few centimetres.
• Do not move backwards.
• On slopes, always work across the slope.
• If the blade comes into contact with a foreign body, switch off the engine immediately. Wait until the blade is stationary and check the equipment for damage. Restart work only if the equipment is undamaged.
• Switch off the equipment during longer breaks and for transportation and wait until the blade is stationary.
• Clean the equipment after each use, as described in the “cleaning and maintenance” chapter.

Setting the Cutting Height

The equipment has 6 positions for setting the cutting height (25-75 mm):

1. Pull the lever (18) outwards and push it to the desired position (34).
2. Push the lever (18) back in.

The correct cutting height is around 30 – 45 mm for an ornamental lawn and around 40 – 65 mm for a utility lawn.

Select a greater cutting height for the first cut of the season.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Have any repair and maintenance work not described in these instructions carried out by a specialist workshop. Use only original parts. Risk of accidents!

Carry out maintenance and cleaning work strictly with the engine switched off and spark plug connectors removed. Risk of injury!

Allow the equipment to cool before any maintenance and cleaning work. Elements of the engine are hot. Risk of burning!

Wear gloves when handling the blade.

Cleaning and General Maintenance Work

Tilt the device back for cleaning and maintenance jobs at the bottom side so that the spark plug faces upwards.

Make sure that a second person holds the device because there is a danger of tipping backwards.

Do not tilt the equipment sideways or forwards. Operating fluids could leak out and the engine could be damaged.

- Always keep the equipment clean. To clean, use a toothbrush or cloth but no corrosive cleaning agents or solvents. Do not use water to clean the engine as it could contaminate the fuel system.

• To clean the blade housing, it is possible to connection a hose to the upper side of the housing (15) (see 35).
• After mowing, remove plant remains that are stuck to the equipment by using a piece of wood or plastic. Clean the vent holes (11), ejection hole and blade area especially. Do not use hard or pointed objects, which could damage the equipment.
• Oil the wheels from time to time.
• Before each use, check the lawnmower for obvious defects such as loose, worn or damaged parts. Check that all nuts bolts and screws are sitting firmly.
• Check covers and guards (2, 1, 13, 21) for damage and that they are sitting correctly. Replace if necessary.

Cleaning/Replacing the Air Filter

Do not operate the equipment without the air filter otherwise dust and dirt will get into the engine and result in damage to the machine.

1. Remove the spark plugs connector (11) (see "Maintaining the Spark Plug").
2. Open the air filter box (8) and take out the air filter (9).
3. Clean the air filter (9) with soap solution and let it dry. Put a few drops of fresh engine oil into the air filter.
4. To install, place the air filter (9) in the air filter box (8) and reclose it.

Maintaining the Spark Plug

A worn spark plug or a spark gap that is too large will result in a reduction of engine performance.

1. Disconnect the spark plug connector (11) from the spark plug (12) by simultaneously pulling and turning.
2. Unscrew the spark plug (12) anti-clockwise.
3. Check the spark gap using a feeler gauge (available from specialist shops). The spark gap must be at least 0.5-0.6 mm.
4. If necessary, adjust the gap by carefully bending the ground electrode on the spark plug.
5. Clean the spark plug with a wire brush.
6. Insert the cleaned and adjusted spark plug or replace a damaged spark plug with a new one (recommended torque 20 Nm, determined with a torque wrench) (see "Replacement parts/Accessories").

Changing the Engine Oil

Change the engine oil with the petrol tank empty and the engine warm.

- Change the engine oil for the first time after around 5 operating hours then every 50 operating hours or annually.

- Dispose of the used oil in an ecofriendly manner (see “Disposal/Environmental protection”).

1. Remove the spark plug connector (11) (see "Maintaining the Spark Plug").
2. Open the oil tank cover (1.7) and pump out the motor oil with an oil pump.
3. Refill with engine oil (see "Initial Operation").

Adjusting the Bowden cable

If the Bowden cables go out of adjustment, you can adjust them.

1. Loosen the small locking nut (36).
2. • Turn the adjusting nut (37) counterclockwise:
     The Bowden cable shortens.
3. Turn the adjusting nut (37)
   clockwise:
   The Bowden cable extends.

Checking/Sharpening/Replacing the Blade

Only allow specialist companies to install and dismantle the knife.

Wear gloves when handling the blade.

• Take off the spark plug connector (11) and check the blade for wear and damage.
• Always have a blunt blade resharpened by a specialist company, as an imbalance check can be carried out there.
  • Always have a specialist workshop change a damaged or imbalanced blade.

Incorrect installation can result in serious injury.

Adjusting the Carburettor

The carburettor has been preset in the factory for optimum performance. If readjustments are required, have the adjustments made by a specialist workshop.

Storage

General Storage Instructions

Do not store the equipment with a full collection box. In hot weather, the grass begins to ferment when heat is generated. Risk of fire.

• Clean and service the equipment before storage.
• Allow the engine to cool before storing the equipment in enclosed areas.
• Use suitable and authorised containers for storing fuel.
• Keep the equipment in a dry place that is protected from dust and out of reach of children.
• Do not wrap the equipment in nylon bags as damp and mould could form.

Maintenance Intervals

Regularly carry out the maintenance work listed in the “maintenance intervals” table. Regular maintenance prolongs the life of the equipment. It also gives optimum cutting performance and avoids accidents.
