Q4 - Latch Tabs, Q5 - Air Cleaner Cover
Never run the engine without a filter or with a dirty filter.
This will greatly reduce engine efficiency and lead to
engine damage.
Your lawnmower is fitted with an Air Cleaner, the
maintenance for which is as follows:-
• Check the filter before each use.
• Clean every 25 hrs or more frequently when used in
dusty areas.
• Replace filter every 200 hrs.
If you do not intend to use your lawnmower for long
periods it is advisable to follow this procedure after use:
1. Stop the engine.
2. Fully close the fuel tap. (K)
3. Restart the engine.
4. As fuel runs out the engine will begin to stop, tilt the
lawnmower slightly.
5. Once the engine has stopped, release the Operator
Presence Control.
6. Disconnect the spark plug lead.
7. Remove all fuel from the fuel tank.
Cleaning - USE GLOVES
• Keep your lawnmower clean - grass clippings left in
any of the air intakes, around the engine or under the
deck could become a potential fire hazard.
• Do not clean with chemicals, including petrol, or
solvents - some can destroy critical plastic parts.
1. Remove grass from under the deck with a piece of
wood or similar.
2. Using a soft brush - remove grass clippings from
around the engine and from all air intakes.
3. Remove the fan, See 'Removing and Fitting the
Blade and Fan', and clean with a soft brush.

the engine in a horizontal position.

position:- 'Run' position (N) - for a hot engine, 'Choke'

5. Petrol may be stale, replace. Once the petrol has
been replaced, it may take a little time for fresh petrol
