6.4 Emptying the debris bag

When the debris bag is full, the air throughput will 

be low and the level indicator (4c) will be up close 

against the debris bag (Fig. 10). Empty the debris 

bag and clear out the ejector chute.

Danger! Before taking off the debris bag, 

switch off the engine and wait until the blade 

has come to a stop.

To take off the grass basket, use one hand to lift 

up the chute flap and the other to grab onto the 

basket carry-handle. Remove the basket (Fig. 4a).

For safety reasons, the chute flap automatically 

falls down after removing the grass basket and 

closes off the rear chute opening. If any grass 

remains in the opening, it will be easier to restart 

the engine if you pull the mower back approxi-

mately 1m.

Do not use your hands or feet to remove clippings 

in or on the mower housing, but instead use suita-

ble tools such as a brush or a hand broom.

In order to ensure that the majority of grass clip-

pings are picked up, the inside of both the grass 

bag and especially the air grill must be cleaned 

after each use.

Reattach the grass bag only when the engine is 

switched off and the blade is stopped.

Using one hand, lift up the chute flap, while grab-

bing onto the basket handle with the other. Hang 

in the basket from the top. 

7. Cleaning, maintenance, storage, 

transport and ordering of spare 

parts

Danger! 

Never work on or touch any current-conducting 

parts of the ignition system while the engine is 

running. Pull the spark plug boot from the spark 

boot before doing any maintenance or assembly 

work. Never carry out any work on the equipment 

while the engine is running. Work that is not de-

scribed in these operating instructions, should 

only be carried out by authorized workshops.

7.1 Cleaning

The lawn mower should be cleaned thoroughly 

every time after it has been used. This applies in 

particular to its underside and the blade mount. 

Tilt the lawn mower to the rear by pressing down 

the push bar.

Note: Before tilting the lawn mower, use a petrol 

extraction pump to drain all the fuel out of the 

fuel tank. Do not tilt the lawn mower by more 

than 90 degrees. It is easiest to remove dirt and 

grass immediately after mowing. Dried grass 

remnants and dirt may impair the mowing ope-

ration. Check whether the grass ejector chute is 

free of grass residues and clear out as required. 

Never clean the lawn mower using a water jet or a 

high-pressure cleaner. Ensure that no water can 

get into the interior of the equipment. Do not use 

aggressive cleaning agents such as cold cleaners 

or petroleum ether.

7.2 Maintenance

Note: Dispose of soiled maintenance material 

and operating materials at the appropriate collec-

tion point.

7.2.1 Petrol engine

The enclosed engine manual from Briggs & 

Stratton provides maintenance information 

and maintenance interval information on the 

engine.

7.2.2 Blades

For safety reasons, have all blade sharpening, 

balancing and mounting work carried out by an 

authorized service center. To achieve optimal re-

sults, we recommend having the blades checked 

once a year.

Changing the blades (Fig. 8)

When changing the cutting unit, be sure to use 

only genuine replacement parts. The identification 

mark on the blade must correspond with the num-

ber specified in the spare parts list.

Never install a blade from a different manufactu-

rer.

Damaged blades

If, in spite of all caution, the blade comes into con-

tact with an obstacle, switch off the engine imme-

diately and pull off the spark plug connector.

Tilt the lawn mower to the rear and check the 

blade for damage. Damaged or bent blades must 

be replaced. Never straighten a bent blade. Never 

work with bent or heavily worn blades as this will
