• Clean the equipment after each use, as
described in the "cleaning and mainte-
nance" chapter.
Setting the Cutting Height
The equipment has 6 positions for setting
the cutting height:
1. Pull the lever (18) outwards and push
it to the desired position (33).
2. Push the lever (18) back in.
The correct cutting height is around
30 – 45 mm for an ornamental lawn and
around 40 – 65 mm for a utility lawn.
Select a greater cutting height for
the first cut of the season.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Have any repair and mainte-
nance work not described in
these instructions carried out by
a specialist workshop. Use only
original replacement parts. Risk
of accidents!
Carry out maintenance and
cleaning work strictly with the
engine switched off and spark
plug connectors removed. Risk
of injury!
Allow the equipment to cool
before any maintenance and
cleaning work. Elements of the
engine are hot. Risk of burning!
Wear gloves when handling the
blade.
Cleaning and General
Maintenance Work
Tilt the device back for cleaning
and maintenance jobs at the bot-
tom side so that the spark plug
faces upwards.
Make sure that a second person
holds the device because there is
a danger of tipping backwards.
Do not tilt the equipment sideways
or forwards. Operating fluids could
leak out and the engine could be
damaged.
•
Always keep the equipment clean. To
clean, use a toothbrush or cloth but no
corrosive cleaning agents or solvents.
Do not use water to clean the engine as
it could contaminate the fuel system.
•
To clean the blade housing, it is possi-
ble to connection a hose to the upper
side of the housing (
(see
27).
•
After mowing, remove plant remains
that are stuck to the equipment by us-
ing a piece of wood or plastic. Clean
the vent holes (
and blade area especially. Do not use
hard or pointed objects, which could
damage the equipment.
•
Oil the wheels from time to time.
•
Before each use, check the lawnmow-
er for obvious defects such as loose,
worn or damaged parts. Check that
all nuts bolts and screws are sitting
firmly.
•
Check covers and guards (
13, 21) for damage and that they are
sitting correctly. Replace if necessary.
