Check the secure fastening of the front and rear
wheels.
Always maintain the ride-on mower and the attach-
ments in perfect operating condition. All safety de-
vices must be present and be in perfect operating
condition.
Ensure that the tyres have the correct tyre pressures.
The tyre pressures specified in the instruction manu-
al must not be exceeded.
Only perform work on the cutting unit when wearing
thick work gloves and exercising extreme care.
Check the function of the brakes at regular, short in-
tervals and, if necessary, have the required adjust-

technician.
m WARNING
Never work on or touch conducting parts on the ig-
nition unit with the engine running. Always pull the
spark plug boot from the spark plug before starting
any work of care or maintenance. Never perform any
work on the machine while it is running. Any work not
described in these Operating Instructions must be
performed by an authorized service workshop only.
Wheel axles and wheel hubs
These should be lightly greased once a season.
Blade
For safety reasons you should only ever have your
blade sharpened, balanced and mounted by an au-
thorized service workshop. For optimum results it is
recommended that the blade should be inspected
once a year.
Change the blade (fig. 39 + 40)
When changing the cutting tool, only use original re-
placement parts.
Wear gloves to avoid cut injuries while changing the
blade.
Never install another blade.
• Remove the ignition key.
• Remove the screw (C) to replace the blade (E).
• Install everything as described in fig. 39. Fasten
the screw correctly. The fastening torque in 65 Nm.
Replace the screw C and washer D, as well, if you
replace the knife.
Checking the oil level
m CAUTION! Never run the engine with no or too lit-
tle oil. This could cause severe damage to the engine.
Use only SAE30 engine oil.

Check the oil level (fig. 14):
• Position the lawnmower on a straight, level surface.
• Remove the ignition key (10)
• Unscrew buttons 12 and 2
• Remove the tilt protection (fig. 16)
• Fold the body up (fig. 2)
• Remove the oil dipstick (21) by turning it to the left,
then wipe off the dipstick.
• Screw in the dipstick up to the limit stop again in the
filling nozzle.
• Pull out the dipstick and read the oil level horizon-
tally. The oil level must be positioned between the
max and min of the oil dipstick (21).
Oil change (fig. 32)
• The motor oil change should be completed annu-
ally before the start of the season while the motor
is at operating temperature and shut off.
• Only use motor oil (SAE 30).
• Position the lawnmower on a straight, level surface.
• Remove the ignition key (10)
• Unscrew buttons 12 and 2
• Remove the tilt protection (fig. 16)
• Fold up the body (fig. 2)
• Remove the oil dipstick (21) by turning it to the left
• Use the included injector needle (g) and hose to
extract motor oil through the filling nozzle.
• Fill with fresh motor oil and check the oil level
Dispose of the used oil in accordance with applicable
regulations.
Air filter maintenance (fig. 35 + 36)
Fouled air filters (20) diminish the motor performance
due to reduced air supply to the carburettor. Regular
inspection is therefore essential.
The air filter should be checked every 25 operating
hours and cleaned as required. The air filter must be
checked more often in case of very dusty air.
• Fold the body up as described while checking the
oil.
• Fold out the ejector chute. (Fig. 35)
• Take off the air filter cover (fig. 36) and remove the
air filter (A and B).
• Wash off the sponge filter (B) with water and dry it
completely.
• Clean the paper filter (A) with compressed air only
or by knocking them out.
Important: Never clean the air filter with petrol or
inflammable cleaning agents. Clean the paper filter
with compressed air or simply by knocking out any
soiling.
Maintenance of the spark plug (Fig. 33)
Check the spark plug for dirt and grime after 10 hours
of operation and if necessary clean it with a copper
wire brush. Thereafter service the spark plug after
every 50 hours of operation.
