General Cleaning and
Maintenance Work
Do not hose down the lawnmow-
er with water.
• Always keep the equipment clean. To
clean, use a brush or cloth but no de-
tergent or solvent.
• After mowing, use a piece of wood
or plastic to remove adherent plant
remains from the wheels, ventilation
holes, ejection hole and blade area.
Do not use hard or pointed objects, as
these may damage the blade.
• Oil the wheels from time to time.
• Before each use, check the lawnmower
for obvious defects such as loose, worn
or damaged parts. Check that all nuts,
bolts and screws are sitting rmly.
• Check the covers and protective de-
vices for damage and check that they
are sitting correctly. Replace them if
necessary.
Changing the Blade
If the blade is blunt, it can be sharpened
by a specialist workshop. If the blade
is damaged or showing signs of imbal-
ance, it must be replaced (see chapter on
“Spare Parts”).
1. Turn the equipment over.
2. Use sturdy gloves and hold
the blade rmly (25). Turn the
blade screw (26) anticlockwise
o of the motor spindle using a
screwdriver.
3. Install the new blade in the
reverse order. Ensure that the
blade is positioned correctly and
the screw tightened rmly.
Storage
So the equipment takes up less
space, unlock the two tensio-
ning levers and fold down the
bow handle. Make sure the ca-
bles are not caught.
• Keep the equipment dry and out of
reach of children.
• Allow the motor to cool before storing
the equipment in a conned space.
• Do not cover the equipment with nylon
bags as moisture could build up.
