free of grass residues and clear out as required.
Never clean the lawn mower using a water jet or a
high-pressure cleaner. Ensure that no water can

aggressive cleaning agents such as cold cleaners
or petroleum ether.
7.2 Maintenance
Note: Dispose of soiled maintenance material
and operating materials at the appropriate collec-
tion point.
7.2.1 Petrol engine
The enclosed engine manual from Briggs &
Stratton provides maintenance information
and maintenance interval information on the
engine.
7.2.2 Blades
For safety reasons, have all blade sharpening,
balancing and mounting work carried out by an
authorized service center. To achieve optimal re-
sults, we recommend having the blades checked
once a year.
Changing the blades (Fig. 8)
When changing the cutting unit, be sure to use
only genuine replacement parts. The identication
mark on the blade must correspond with the num-
ber specied in the spare parts list.
Never install a blade from a dierent manufactu-
rer.
Damaged blades
If, in spite of all caution, the blade comes into con-
tact with an obstacle, switch o the engine imme-
diately and pull o the spark plug connector.
Tilt the lawn mower to the rear and check the
blade for damage. Damaged or bent blades must
be replaced. Never straighten a bent blade. Never
work with bent or heavily worn blades as this will
result in vibrations, causing further damage to the
mower.
Warning! Risk of injury when working with a da-
maged blade.
7.2.3 Axles and wheel hubs
Grease should be applied to the axles and wheel
hubs once per season.
To do so, remove the wheel caps with a screwdri-
ver and loosen the fastening screws on the
wheels.
7.2.4 Care and adjustment of the actuator
cables
Oil the actuator cables at regular intervals and
check that they move easily.
7.2.4 Inspecting the V-belt
Remove the blade as described in 7.2.2.
To inspect the V-belt you must remove the V-belt
cover (Fig. 12/Item 5b).
7.2.6 Repairs
After carrying out any repair or maintenance
work, ensure that all safety parts are installed and
in perfect condition.
Keep potentially hazardous parts out of reach of
other persons and children.

Liability Act, we are not liable for any damages if

mower operating times, which may dier from
town to town.
7.3 Preparing the mower for long-term
storage

losed areas, near re or when smoking. Petrol
