Lithium battery pack storage specification1. Lithium battery pack is not used for a short period of time (within 6 months). When the battery is charged, the battery is stored in a dry, non-corrosive gas. The temperature is between -20°C and 40°C and the humidity is between 65±20%. If it is higher or lower than this temperature, the battery metal will not rust or the battery will leak.2. When the lithium battery pack is not used for a long time (more than 6 months), it should be charged with 50%-70% of electricity (charged with the charger for 1 hour). Store in a dry and cool environment, charge once every 3 months, so as not to store too long, the battery is too low due to self-discharge, resulting in irreversible capacity loss.Hinweise für die Starterbatterie bei längerer Nichtbenutzung bzw.

17. Before the first use

Fill with oil

ATTENTION: The mower is delivered without oil in the engine.

All engines are tested at the factory before packing. Most of the oil is removed before shipping; however, a small amount remains in the engine. During transport, the oil moves around in the engine compartment. Therefore, you may see a sufficient amount of oil indicated on the dipstick. However, this is not the case!

Therefore, please top up with enough oil, so the oil level is between the upper and lower marks on the dipstick (see illustration). Do not overfill the engine with oil.

Fuel filler cap

The engine is delivered without petrol. Fill up with 1.0 litre of petrol before starting the engine.

  • Remove the fuel filler cap
    Fill with fuel to the lower edge of the fill level limit in the neck of the fuel tank. Do not overfill. Wipe up spilt fuel before starting the engine.
  • Tighten the fuel filler cap.

Use extreme caution when handling petrol. Petrol is highly flammable; petrol vapours can explode and cause severe injury or death. Keep it out of the reach of children.

Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine off. Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or inhalation of vapours. Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is being refuelled or where petrol is stored.

After refuelling, tighten the fuel filler cap securely. If fuel has been spilt, ensure the area is dry before starting the engine.

Charging the starter battery (only for an eS model)

Charge the battery for approx. 5 hours before first use. To do this, insert the charger's plug into the opening provided on the battery and connect the charger to a power supply (see the following diagram).

19. Maintenance work

General maintenance instructions:

All nuts, bolts and screws must be properly tightened to ensure that the device is safe and operational. Regular maintenance is essential for the user's safety, maintaining the operating condition and performance of the mower.

Never store a device with petrol in the tank in a building where the fumes could come into contact with open fire, sparks or high temperatures.

Allow the engine to cool down before storing it in an enclosed space.

To reduce the risk of fire, ensure that the lawnmower, especially the engine, the muffler and where the replacement fuel is stored, are free from grass, leaves or excessive amounts of lubricants.

Regularly check the condition of the collector cover and the grass collector and replace them if damaged.

Drain the fuel in a well-ventilated area when the engine has cooled down.

Use thick work gloves when removing and installing the cutting blade.

ATTENTION:

Before doing maintenance or repair work, switch off the engine and remove the spark plug.

Check the mower regularly and ensure that all grass deposits on the underside of the chassis are removed.

Lubricate the axle of the chassis and the bearings regularly with a suitable lubricant.

Regularly check the condition of the blades, as they have a significant impact on the performance of the lawnmower. The blades should always be sharp and balanced.

Check at regular intervals that all bolts and nuts are tight. Worn or incorrectly tightened bolts and nuts can cause severe damage to the engine or frame.

If the blade hits an obstacle hard, stop the lawnmower and contact FUXTEC Customer Service.

The cutting blade is made of pressed steel. For optimum mowing results, sharpen the blade regularly, approximately every 25 operating hours. Check that the blade is always properly balanced. To do this, insert a steel axle (with a diameter of 2-3 mm) into the centre hole. If the axle is aligned correctly, it will stay in the horizontal position.

If the knife does not stay in the horizontal position, replace it.

When removing the knife, unscrew the bolt and check the knife holder. If the parts are worn or damaged, replace them.

ATTENTION:

Always use original spare parts. Low-quality spare parts can seriously damage the lawnmower and pose a safety risk.

Changing the cutting blade

Tilt the mower to the right, so the air filter side faces up. That prevents fuel from leaking out and the mower from starting with difficulty.

Inspect the blade for damage, cracks and excessive rust or corrosion.

A dull blade can be sharpened, but a blade that is excessively worn, bent, cracked or otherwise damaged must be replaced.

Always use a torque spanner when installing the blade.

Check that the blade screws are tight.

If you remove the blade for sharpening or replacement, you will need a torque spanner for installation. Wear suitable work gloves to protect your hands.

  • Remove the screw with a socket spanner. Then remove the blade. Use a wooden block to prevent the blade from turning when removing the screw.
  • Mount the blade with the blade screw and the special washers. Make sure to install the special washers with the concave side towards the blade and the convex side towards the screw.
  • Tighten the blade screw with a torque spanner. Use a wooden block to prevent the blade from turning when tightening the screw.

Using the Easy Clean function

On the left side of the mower, you will find a water connection for washing the mower on some models.

When using the water connection, the device must be in the lowest height position on the lawn. That ensures that the water remains under the mower during cleaning.

  • Connect a hose to the nozzle.
  • Turn on the water and start the engine.
    • The rotations of the blades ensure that the water cleans the underside of the mower.

Fuxtec FX-RM5170ZK - Changing the cutting blade - 2

natural_image Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with green cylindrical part and circular features (no text or symbols)

Air filter

If the engine is operated without an air filter or a damaged air filter, dirt can get into the engine, causing rapid wear.

  • Press the cover tabs down and remove the cover.
  • Remove the filter from the air filter base.
  • Check the filter and foam elements and replace them if damaged.
  • Clean the filter by tapping it several times on a hard surface to remove dirt or blow compressed air through the air filter from the inside. Never try to brush off the dirt; brushing will push the dirt into the fibres.
  • Wipe the dirt off the inside of the air filter housing and cover it with a damp cloth. Ensure no dirt gets into the air duct leading to the carburettor.
  • Replace the filter and the cover.

Spark plug

The spark plug must have a correct gap and be free of deposits to achieve good performance. To maintain the spark plug, proceed as follows:

- Disconnect the spark plug cap and remove any dirt in the area of the spark plug.

Fuxtec FX-RM5170ZK - Spark plug - 1

text_image Spark plug spanner

Important: A spark plug spanner is not included in the scope of delivery

  • Check the spark plug. Replace it if the electrodes are worn, or the insulator is cracked or fissured.
  • Measure the spark plug electrode gap with a suitable gauge. Correct the space by carefully bending the side electrode with a suitable tool if necessary. The distance should be 0.028 \~ 0.031 inch (0.7 \~ 0.8 mm).

Fuxtec FX-RM5170ZK - Spark plug - 3

text_image 0.028 ~ 0.031 in (0.7 ~ 0.8 mm) Sealing ring
  • Insert the spark plug carefully by hand to avoid overtightening.
  • Place the spark plug cap on the spark plug.

Caution: A loose spark plug can overheat and damage the engine. Tightening the spark plug too tightly can damage the thread in the cylinder head.

Adjusting the cables

Before the device is put into operation, the rope setting should always be checked.

The cables can be checked by fully operating the handles and checking that the cable is taut. If it is not, it must be tightened. The cable should be loosened if the handle cannot easily be entirely operated.

After the first season, expect to adjust the cables for optimal activation, as the cables may stretch with use.

Readjustment may be necessary for the following cables:

  1. cable for the drive
  2. cable for the engine brake
  3. cable for the throttle cable

  • Never lift the rear of the mower when you park it and do not hold your limbs near the mowing deck or rear discharge chute when the engine is running.
    • Never change the speed setting of the engine.
    • Never transport the lawnmower with the engine running.
  • Stop the engine and disconnect the ignition plug in the following cases:
  • When carrying out work under the mower deck or in the discharge chute.
  • When carrying out maintenance, repairs or inspections on the device.
    Before carrying, lifting or transporting the lawnmower.
  • When you leave the lawnmower unattended or want to adjust the cutting height.
    Before removing and emptying the coarse discharge chute.
  • Stop the engine and check thoroughly for damage if a foreign object is encountered. In case of damage, take the lawnmower to a specialised service centre for repair.

ATTENTION:

The mower fan continues to rotate for a few seconds after the engine is switched off.

If the mower vibrates abnormally, stop the engine immediately. To ensure safe operation, regularly check that the lawnmower's bolts, screws and nuts are tight.

CAUTION: FUEL IS A HIGHLY FLAMMABLE LIQUID.

  • Store the fuel in a suitable container.
  • Fill fuel only in an open and well-ventilated place. Do not smoke or use a mobile phone when handling fuel.
  • Only fill with fuel when the engine is switched off. Never open the fuel tank; do not fill the fuel when the engine is hot or running.
  • If fuel has been spilt, do not start the engine. Move the mower away from where the fuel was spilt, avoiding possible ignition. Do not resume work until the spilt fuel has evaporated and the fuel vapours have dissipated.
    • After filling the fuel, tighten the fuel filler cap and the fuel canister cap securely.

ATTENTION:

Before doing maintenance or repair work, switch off the engine and remove the spark plug.

21. Storage

If you do not use the device for an extended period, you should store it according to the following instructions. That will prolong the life of the device.

  • The same petrol must not remain in the tank for more than one month.
  • Clean the mower thoroughly and store it in a dry room.
  • Never store the lawnmower with fuel in the tank in a building where an open flame or spark may occur.
  • To reduce the fire risk, keep the engine, muffler, battery compartment and fuel storage area free of grass, leaves or excessive grease.
    • This should be done outdoors if the fuel tank needs to be emptied.
  • When adjusting the device, take care not to trap your fingers between the moving blade and the fixed parts of the device.

Lithium battery pack storage specification

  1. Lithium battery pack is not used for a short period of time (within 6 months). When the battery is charged, the battery is stored in a dry, non-corrosive gas. The temperature is between -20°C and 40°C and the humidity is between 65–20%. If it is higher or lower than this temperature, the battery metal will not rust or the battery will leak.
  2. When the lithium battery pack is not used for a long time (more than 6 months), it should be charged with 50% -70% of electricity (charged with the charger for 1 hour). Store in a dry and cool environment, charge once every 3 months, so as not to store too long, the battery is too low due to self-discharge, resulting in irreversible capacity loss.
