Safety instructions | Maintenance

  If fuel is spilled, do not start the engine. Take the lawnmower away from the location where the fuel was 

spilled and take care to avoid possible ignition. Continue with work only after the spilled fuel has evaporated 
and the fuel fumes have dissipated;

  After adding fuel, securely tighten the fuel tank cap and the cap on the fuel canister.

ATTENTION: 

Before carrying out maintenance or repairs, stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug.

9. MAINTENANCE

LAWN CARE

  Various forms of care are required depending on the type of grass area.
  Therefore, always read the instructions included on seed packages with respect to the mowing height for the 

growing conditions in the given locality.

  It is necessary to always keep in mind that the larger part of grass consists of a stem and one or more leaves.

 When the leaves are cut off completely, the lawn is damaged and the renewal of growth will be much more 
diffi cult.

  The following instructions generally apply:

–  excessively low mowing causes disruption to the roots and subsequently “spotty” appearance;
–  in summer, mowing must be higher to prevent the soil from drying out;
–  mowing wet grass may result in a lower effi ciency of the blade due to grass catching on the blade and 

grass being ripped out of the ground;

–  in the event of exceptionally tall grass it is appropriate to perform the fi rst mow at the maximum permitted 

mowing height of the machine and then mow again only after two or three days.

  The lawn will have a better appearance when it is mowed regularly over its entire area at the same height with 

alternating mowing directions.

MAINTENANCE

  All nuts, pins and bolts must be properly tightened so that the machine is in a safe and operational 

condition. Regular maintenance is the basic prerequisite for ensuring safety of the user, maintain the 
lawnmower’s operating condition and high performance.

  Never store a machine with petrol in the fuel tank inside a building where the fumes could come within range 

of an open fi re, sparks or sources of high temperature

  Before storing in any enclosed area, allow the engine to cool down.
  To reduce the risk of a fi re, ensure that the lawnmower and in particular the engine, exhaust muffl er, battery 

and also the location of spare fuel storage are free of grass, leaves or excessive amounts of lubricant.

  Regularly inspect the condition of the defl ector and the grass catcher; replace if damaged.
  Drain the fuel in a well ventilated area when the engine has cooled down.
  When removing or installing the mowing blade, use thick work gloves.
  It is necessary to check the balance of the mowing blade every time that it is sharpened.

ATTENTION: 

Before carrying out maintenance or repairs, stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug.

  Regularly inspect the lawnmower and ensure that all grass deposits are removed from the underside of the 

chassis.
