Winter storage:
We recommend your lawnmower is serviced after the last cut of the season, before storage.
Before storing, carry out the following:
1.
Ensure the petrol is drained from the tank.
2.
Then run the engine until it uses up the remaining fuel.
3.
Close the fuel tap - see fig 11.
4.
Disconnect the spark plug lead and remove the spark plug - see fig 10.
5.
Drain and replace the engine oil. [See manufacturers handbook]
6.
Store the machine so that the deck and engine are horizontal to the ground.
N.B. - Stale fuel is a major cause of non-starting at the beginning of a season.
Fault finding:
Poor Starting
1.
Make sure the petrol tap is open.
2.
If the engine is COLD, the throttle control should be in the START [fig 15] position.
If WARM, in the RUN [fig 14] position.
3.
If the mower has been out of use, the petrol may be stale. Drain and replace.
4.
Check the air filter for excessive oil. If this is the case, fit a new filter [see fig. 16].
5.
The engine may be flooded with fuel, in which case, remove and dry the spark plug. Before replacing, crank
the engine to remove excess fuel.
6.
Check the plug for spark by placing the end of the plug (with lead connected) against the engine casing and
away from the plughole. DO NOT HOLD THE PLUG OR LEAD BY HAND.
Crank the engine and watch for a spark at the plug points. If there is no spark, the plug should be replaced.
7.
Make sure the cutting disk is correctly fitted and tight.
If none of the above steps solve the problem - see your local dealer.
Poor hovering
1.
Check that the cutting disk is fitted firmly.
2.
Check that the impeller air vents are not blocked.
3.
Check that the underside of the deck is really clean.
4.
Check that the engine is running at the correct speed - see your local dealer.
Excessive vibration
1.
Check cutting disk and spacers are fitted correctly.
2.
Check all screws and bolts are tight.
3.
If the blade has hit a heavy object the impeller crankshaft may be damaged. (See dealer.)
Engine Overheating
1.
Make sure the engine cooling fins are dirt-free.
Ordering parts
When ordering a part please state the Allen Power model number.
The serial number may be needed - it is located on the sticker shown on p13.
There are two stickers located on your mower beneath the handlebars behind the engine.
