Operation

Introduction

WARNING: 

Before you operate the product,

you must read and understand the safety

chapter.

Before you operate the product

1. Read the operator's manual carefully and make sure

that you understand the instructions.

2. Examine the cutting equipment to make sure that it

is correctly attached and adjusted. See 

To examine

the cutting equipment on page 11.

3. Fill the fuel tank. See 

To fill fuel on page 10.

4. Fill the oil tank and do a check of the oil level. See 

To do a check of the oil level on page 12.

To fill fuel

If available, use low-emission/alkylate gasoline. If low-

emission/alkylate gasoline is not available, use good

quality unleaded gasoline or leaded gasoline with octane

number not less than 90.

CAUTION: 

Do not use gasoline with an

octane number less than 90 RON (87 AKI).

This can cause damage to the product.

1. Open the fuel tank cap slowly to release the

pressure.

2. Fill slowly with a fuel can. If you spill fuel, remove it

with a cloth and let remaining fuel dry off.

3. Clean the area around the fuel tank cap.
4. Tighten the fuel tank cap fully. If the fuel tank cap is

not tightened, there is a risk of fire.

5. Move the product a minimum of 3 m (10 ft) from the

position where you filled the tank before a start.

To set the cutting height

1. Move the cutting height lever rearward to increase

the cutting height.

2. Move the cutting height lever forward to decrease

the cutting height.(Fig. 27 )

CAUTION: 

Do not set the cutting height too

low. The blades can hit the ground if the

surface of the lawn is not level.

To start the product

1. Make sure that the ignition cable is connected to the

spark plug.

2. The very first time you start the product, press the

primer bulb 5 times. The next time you start the

product when the engine is cold, press the primer

bulb 3 times.

3. Stay behind the product.
4. Hold the engine brake handle against the handlebar.

(Fig. 28 )

5. Hold the starter rope handle with your right hand.
6. Slowly pull out the starter rope until you feel some

resistance.

7. Pull with force to start the engine.

WARNING: 

Do not twist the starter rope

around your hand.

To use the drive on the wheels

(LC 140S)

• Push the drive bail in the direction of the handlebar.

(Fig. 29 )

• Before you pull the product rearward, disengage the

drive and push the product forward approximately

10cm.

• Release the drive bail to disengage the drive, for

example when you go near an obstacle.

To stop the product

• To stop the drive only, release the drive bail.
• To stop the engine, release the engine brake handle.

To get a good result

• Always use a sharp blade. A blunt blade gives an

irregular result and the cut surface of the grass

becomes yellow. A sharp blade also uses less

energy than a blunt blade.

• Do not cut more than ⅓ of the length of the grass.

Cut first with the cutting height set high. Examine the

result and lower the cutting height to an applicable

level. If the grass is very long, drive slowly and cut 2

times if necessary.

• Cut in different directions each time to prevent

stripes in the lawn.
