If the start/stop loop ceases to work, stop
the engine by removing the spark plug
cable from the spark plug. Immediately
take the lawn mower to an authorised
workshop for repair.
MOWING TIPS
Before mowing the lawn, take care to remove any
stones, toys and other hard objects.
A machine with the MULTICLIP system cuts the
grass, chops it finely and then blows it down into the
lawn. The grass clippings need not be collected.
The following rules should be observed to give the
best MULTICLIP effect:
1. Use a high engine speed (full throttle).
2. Do not mow when the grass is wet.
3. Do not cut the grass too short. Not more than
1/3rd of the length should be cut off.
4. Ensure that the area under the mower casing is
always kept clean.
5. Always use a well-sharpened blade.
CUTTING HEIGHT
Shut off the engine before adjusting the
cutting height.
Do not set the cutting height so low that
the blade/blades come into contact with
uneven ground.
It is possible to vary the cutting height by moving
the wheel axles through four positions (fig. 11).
MAINTENANCE
No servicing is to be carried out on the
engine or mower unit without first
switching off the engine and removing
the spark plug cable from the spark
plug.
Stop the engine and remove the spark
plug cable if the mower is to be lifted,
e.g. during transportation.
If the machine needs to be tilted, the fuel
tank must be emptied and the engine's
spark plug kept upright.
ENGLISH
CLEANING
After each use the mower should be cleaned. This
is particularly important on the underside of the
mower casing. Rinse with the garden hose. The
mower will then last longer and function better.
The paint on the underside of the deck will, in
time, be worn away by the mowing process. To
prevent corrosion, paint the underside with anti-
corrosive paint.
Clean the silencer and the surrounding
area regularly to remove grass, dirt and
flammable waste products.
COOLING SYSTEM
Before each use, the engine's cooling system must
be cleaned. Clean the cylinder's cooling flanges
and air intake of grass remains, dirt, etc.
OIL CHANGE
Replace the oil when the engine is warm
and the fuel tank is empty. Warm oil
runs out of the engine more easily. In or-
der to prevent burns, take care while
draining as the oil is hot.
Change the oil the first time after 5 hours of oper-
ation, and subsequently every 50 hours of opera-
tion or once a season. Remove the dipstick, tilt the
mower and let the oil run out into a container. Be
careful not to let any oil run onto the grass.
Fill with new oil: Use SAE 30 or SAE 10W-30 oil.
The crankcase holds approx. 0.55 litre. Fill until
the oil reaches the 'FULL/MAX' mark on the dip-
stick. Do not overfill.
AIR FILTER
A dirty and blocked air filter reduces the engine
output and increases engine wear.
Briggs & Stratton: Carefully remove the air cleaner
so that no dirt falls down into the carburettor (fig.
12). Remove the foam filter and wash it in liquid de-
tergent and water. Dry the filter. Pour a little oil on the
filter and squeeze it in. Reassemble the air cleaner.
Wash the filter every three months or after every
25 hours of use, whichever occurs first. More fre-
quently if the engine is used on dusty ground.
