Check the mower, the blade and other parts if
they have struck a foreign object or if the machine
vibrates more than usual.
Do not make any adjustments or repairs until the
engine has been switched off. Pull the plug boot.
Pay special attention if you are mowing directly
next to a street or are close by one (trafc). Always
keep the grass chute pointed away from the street.
Avoid mowing in places where the wheels have
trouble gripping or mowing is unsafe in any other
way. Before you back up, ensure that nobody is
standing behind you (especially little children, who
are more difcult to see).
When mowing over thick, high grass, select the
highest cutting level and mow at a slower speed.
Before you remove any grass or blockages of any
kind, switch off the engine and pull the plug boot.
Never remove any safety-related parts.
Never ll the engine with petrol when it is hot or is
running.
Emptying the grass basket
The debris bag (16) is equipped with a lling level in-
dicator (Fig. 16). This will be opened by the air current
produced by the mower. If the ap falls during mow-
ing, the debris bag (16) is full and should be emptied.
To ensure that the lling level indicator works prop-
erly, the holes under the ap must be kept clean and
permeable.
As soon as grass clippings start to trail the lawn mow-
er, it is time to empty the grass basket.
m WARNING
Before taking off the grass basket, switch off
the engine and wait until the blade has come to
a stop.
To take off the grass basket (16), use one hand to
lift up the chute ap (15) and the other to grab onto
the basket handle (Fig. 16). Remove the basket. For
safety reasons, the chute ap (15) automatically falls
down after removing the grass basket and closes off
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 approx.
1 meter. 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 both the grass basket (16)
and especially the air grill must be cleaned after each
use. Reattach the grass basket (16) only when the
engine is switched off and the blade is stopped. Using
one hand, lift up the chute ap (15), while grabbing
onto the basket handle with the other. Hang in the
basket from the top. Fig. 9
Mowing without the catch basket: (Fig. 24):
In order to mow without the catch basket, insert the
two plastic stoppers in the recesses intended for this.
This prevents the discharge ap from closing fully
and the mown grass is channelled downwards.
After mowing
Allow the engine to cool before you put the lawn
mower in an enclosed area.
Remove grass, foliage, grease and oil before
storing the mower. Do not place any objects on top
of the mower.
Check all the screws and nuts once more before
you start to use the lawn mower again. Tighten any
loose screws.
Also be sure to empty the grass basket (16).
Pull the spark plug boot to prevent unauthorized
use.
Ensure that you do not park the mower next to
any source of danger. Petrol fumes can lead to
explosions.
Only original parts or parts approved by the
manufacturer may be used for repairs (see address
on the warranty certicate).
If the lawn mower is not going to be used for an
extended period, empty the petrol tank using a
petrol suction pump.
Oil and maintain the machine.
9. Maintenance and cleaning
Regular, careful maintenance is required to guar-
antee the safety level and performance of the ma-
chine.
Make sure that all nuts, bolts and screws are tight-
ened securely and that the machine is in safe work-
ing condition.
Routinely check the grass basket for signs of wear
and impaired functionality.
Regularly clean the grass box with water and let it
dry thoroughly.
For your own safety, replace worn or damaged
parts without delay.
If the fuel tank should require emptying this should
only be done in the open air using a petrol suction
pump (available from DIY shops).

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.
Cleaning (Fig.25)
The mower should be thoroughly cleaned after each
use. In particular, the underside and the blade re-
tainer.
