Do not use hard or pointed objects for cleaning the machine.
• Always keep the lawnmower, wheels axles and air vents clean. Use a brush or cloth to clean it, avoid
cleaners and solvents.

STORAGE & TRANSPORT
The following steps should be taken to prepare your machine for storage.
CAUTION
The motor must have completely cooled down before storing.
NOTE: When storing any type of power equipment in an unventilated or material storage shed,
• For trouble free service, make sure the machine is clean and dry before storing.
• Keep the lawnmower in a dry place out of children’s reach. Do not cover the lawnmower, moisture may
develop.
• Store indoors or in a safe dust free area, locked protected area during severe weather and winter months. If
storing for an extended period, inspect, clean and repair the machine if necessary. Please ensure the machine
is stored away from direct sunlight.
• Be careful not to bend or kink cables.
• Ensure the machine is stored in a position, where any persons cannot step on to attempt to reach items up
high, due to risk of movement.
For compact storage follow these steps.
REMOVE OR REPLACE THE BLADE
1. Block the rotation of the blade, using a good-sized piece of wood, which the blade cannot cut.
2. Hold the blade using gardening gloves (not provided) and spanner (not provided) rotating the spanner
anti-clockwise.
3. Remove the bolt, washer and blade. Dispose of the old blade responsibly if replacing.
4. Attach a new blade, fastening with the washer and blade bolt. Ensure that the blade is correctly
positioned on the blade boss and then firmly tighten the bolt, clockwise.
CLEANING
Always remove the electric plug from the mains supply before any cleaning is undertaken.
Carefully clean the underside of the deck with a stiff brush after each cut; remove the grass debris and mud
accumulated inside the deck to prevent it drying. Do not use water on any part of the main machine!
COLLECTOR CLEANING
Pores in the grassbox can become filled with dirt and dust, during use and will collect less grass. To prevent
this, regularly hose the catcher off with water and let dry before using.
Keep the top of the motor housing vents clear and clean of grass clippings & dust. This will assist motor air flow
and extend the machine life.
