Cleaning
– To ensure long life and good performance
of the machine, it is important to keep the
machine clean and well lubricated. Make
sure the chute is clean and under the deck
is cleared from wet debris. (See also short
term storage).
– Do not allow grass cuttings and other
debris to become dry and hard on any of
the mower surfaces, as this will directly
affect the cutting and grass collection per-
formance. Make sure that the underside
of the lawn mower deck is clean and clear.
– Never clean the lawn mower with a water
jet or high-pressure cleaner. The engine
must remain dry. Do not use aggressive
cleaning agents or solvents, such as cold
degreasers or petroleum ether.
Cleaning or replacing the air filter
NOTICE! WARNING! Never run
the engine without the air filter ele-
ment installed:
– Loosen the fastener that holds the cover.
– Open the cover and remove the filter.
– To loosen debris, gently tap the filter on a
hard surface. If the filter is excessively
dirty, replace with a new filter.
– Install the filter.
– Install the cover tabs into the slots.
– Close the cover and secure with the fas-
tener.
Cleaning or replacing the spark plug
– Once the engine has cooled, pull off the
spark plug boot with a twist. Remove the
spark plug using the socket spanner sup-
plied.
– Clean the plug with a wire brush.
– Using a feeler gauge, set the gap to 0.7-
0.8 mm.
– Install the spark plug carefully by hand to
avoid cross-threading.
– After the spark plug is seated, tighten with
the spanner to compress the washer.

Changing the oil
Tilt the lawn mower towards the oil filler, have
a container ready to catch the oil, and remove
the dipstick. Once the oil has been emptied,
wipe clean any spillages.
Refill with 400ml SAE 30 oil or equivalent, i.e.
SAE 10W/30). When the dipstick is rested on
the filler pipe, the oil level must be between
the min. and max. marks on the dipstick.
Do not overfill.
Start the engine and allow it to run briefly.
Stop the engine, wait one minute and check
the oil level. Top up if necessary.
Replacing the cutting blade
► P. 10, fig. 12
You will need garden gloves (not provided)
and a spanner wrench to remove the blade.
Always handle the blade with care – sharp
edges could cause injury.
Do not hold the blade directly by hand.
Regularly check your blade. If the cut of your
grass is poor, the blade might be blunt. Dam-
aged blades not only result in a bad cut, they
cause excessive vibration and uneconomical
running of the engine. If the blade has worn
excessively and become pitted and blunt, it
should be replaced or sharpened.
Tip the machine slightly towards the oil filler
pipe and reach under the deck.
Hold the blade and unscrew the blade bolt
anti-clockwise using a spanner wrench.
Remove the washer and the blade.
Inspect the blade adaptor for any signs of
damage.
Fit a new blade, locate the blade on the two
studs on the blade flange and then replace
the washer and bolts.
Check the washer is still slightly domed to
keep the pressure on the bolt to stop it
unwinding, keeping the blade firmly secure.
Then replace the washer (right way around!)
and bolts.

you remove the grass collection
