12. Maintenance
Risk of injury!
Carefully read the section "For your
safety" (Ö 4.), particularly the
subsection "Maintenance and
repairs" (Ö 4.7), and follow all
safety instructions exactly before
performing any maintenance or
cleaning operations on the
machine.
Allow the machine to
cool and detach the
spark plug socket before
performing any
maintenance or cleaning
operations.
Risk of injury!
Stop the engine, allow the machine
to cool and detach the spark plug
socket.

Clean the lawn mower in the
described position only. This
ensures that no fuel or engine oil
can escape.
Risk of injury!
Blades are subjected to differing
degrees of wear depending on the
location and duration of use. If you
use the machine on sandy ground
or use it frequently under dry
conditions, the blade will be
subjected to greater loads and will
wear more quickly than the
average.
A worn blade may break off and
cause serious injuries. The
instructions for blade maintenance
must therefore always be
observed.
