surrounding the fuel tank free of grass, straw, moss, leaves or escaping grease.
Preparing the mower for long-term storage Caution: Do not empty the petrol tank
in enclosed areas, near fire or when smoking. Petrol fumes can cause explosions and
fire.
• Empty the petrol tank with a petrol suction pump.
• Start the engine and let it run until any remaining petrol has been used up.
• Open battery cap and remove battery.
• Change the oil at the end of every season. To do so, remove the used engine oil from
a warm engine and refill with fresh oil.
• Remove the spark plug from the cylinder head.
• Fill the cylinder with approx. 20ml of oil from an oil can.
• Slowly pull back the starter handle, which will bathe in the cylinder wall with oil.
• Screw the spark plug back in.
• Clean the cooling fins of the cylinder and the housing.
• Be sure to clean the entire machine to protect the paint.
• Store the machine in a well-ventilated place.
Battery Pack and Charger
When not in use, disconnect charger and store in a cool, dry area. Wet, damp areas
can cause corrosion of terminals and electrical contacts. If stored for long periods in
high temperatures (120° F / 50° C), permanent damage to the battery pack can result.
Check electrical terminals and contacts on battery packs and charger. Wipe with clean
cloth or blow clean with compressed air. After storage, a normal charge may be
required. To check available charge, press the Battery Fuel Gauge button and charge
if required. See the Battery Fuel Gauge section.
Incorrect storage can damage the battery and is excluded from the guarantee.
Transport
Transporting the ride-on mower
On account of its own weight, the ride-on mower can cause severe crush injuries.
Particular care must be taken when loading or unloading the ride-on mower onto/from
a vehicle or trailer for transport purposes.
This ride-on mower must not be towed. For transporting on public roads, a suitable
vehicle or a suitable trailer must be used.
Secure the ride-on mower on a loading area during transport. Always engage the
parking brake.
Prior to transporting or storage, disengage the drive to the mowing blade or
attachments.
When transporting the machine, always observe regional legislation, especially
regarding load security and the transport of objects on load loors.
Allow the machine, in particular the engine and mufler, to cool down completely after
loading and before further transport. The load loor and the area around the mu ler and
engine must be kept free of combustible materials such as straw, leaves or dry grass
residues. Always remove the ignition key.
