Select the cutting height according to the length of the grass. Make several passes so that no more than 4cm of
grass are cut at one time.
Switch o the motor before doing any checks on the blade. Keep in mind that the blade continues to rotate for a few
seconds after the motor has been switched o . Never attempt to manually stop the blade. Regularly check to see if
the blade is securely attached, is in good condition and is sharp. If the contrary is the case, sharpen the blade or
replace it. In the event that the blade strikes an object, immediately switch o the lawn mower and wait for the blade to
come to a complete stop. Then inspect the condition of the blade and the blade mount. Replace any parts that are
damaged.
As soon as grass clippings start to trail the lawn mower, it is time to empty the grass basket. Important! Before taking
o the grass basket, switch o the motor and wait until the blade has come to a stop.
To take o the grass basket, use one hand to lift up the chute flap and the other to grab onto the basket handle.
Remove the basket. For safety reasons, the chute flap automatically falls down after removing the grass basket and
closes o the rear chute opening. If any grass remains in the opening, it will be easier to restart the engine if you pull
the mower back approximately 1m.
Do not use your hands or feet to remove clippings in or on the mower housing, but instead use suitable tools such as
a brush or a hand broom.
In order to ensure that the majority of grass clippings are picked up, the inside of the grass basket must be cleaned
after each use.
Reattach the grass basket only when the motor is switched o and the blade has stopped.
Lift up the chute flap with one hand and, holding the grass basket by its handle with the other hand, hang in the
basket from the top.
7. Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts
Danger!
Pull the safety plug before carrying out any cleaning work (Fig. 12/pos. 3).
7.1 Cleaning
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the
equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.
Do not clean the lawn mower with running water, particularly with high-pressure water.
We recommend that you clean the device immediately each time you have finished using it.
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents;
these could attack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep into the device.
7.2 Maintenance
Worn out or damaged blades, blade mounts, and bolts should be replaced as a set by an authorized
professional in order to keep the equipment in balance.
Ensure that all mounting components (i.e. screws, bolts, nuts etc.) are always tightened so that the equipment
can be safely operated at all times.
Frequently check the grass catch assembly for signs of wear.
Replace excessively worn or damaged parts immediately.
In order to ensure that you enjoy the equipment for many years to come, all screwed parts, as well as the
wheels and axles, should be cleaned and lubricated.
Keeping your lawn mower in good condition not only ensures a long lifespan and high performance, but also
enables the equipment to thoroughly cut your grass with minimal effort.
The blade is subjected to more wear and tear than any other component. Therefore, routinely check the
condition of the blade and make sure that it is tightly fastened. If the blade is completely worn out, it must be
immediately replaced or ground sharp again. An excessively vibrating mower means that the blade is not
properly balanced or has become deformed from striking an object. In this case, the blade must be repaired or
replaced.
There are no parts inside the equipment which require additional maintenance.
7.3 Replacing the blade
For safety reasons, we recommend having the blade replaced by an authorized professional. Important! Wear work
