Information on mowing
• Steer the product at an even, slow speed
(walking pace) in the straightest lines
possible.
• Always work across slopes where possible.
• Do not cut wet grass if possible.
• Overlap the mowing lines slightly for an
even appearance.
Checking the oil level
Important: Never run the engine with no or too
little oil. This could cause severe damage to the
engine. Use only 10W30 engine oil.
Checking the oil level:
Stand the lawn mower on a flat level surface.
Unscrew the oil dip stick by turning anticlockwise,
pull out and wipe. Insert the dip stick back in the
filling mount as far as the stop, but do not screw
back in. Pull out the dip stick again and read off
the oil level while holding horizontally. The oil
level must be between the maximum and the
30
minimum. The moveable plastic part on the oil
dip stick provides protection against oil foam.
Changing the oil
Change the engine oil every year before the start
of
the season when the engine is warm.
.Use only engine oil (10W30).
.Place a flat oil drip tray beneath the mower.
.Open the oil filler screw (Fig. 13/12).
.Open the oil drainage screw (Fig. 13/16).
.Drain the warm engine oil into a drip tray.
.Close the drain screw again when all the used oil
has been drained.
.Fill up with engine oil as far as the top mark on
the dipstick (approx. 0.6 l).
.Important! Do not screw in the oil dipstick to
check the oil level – only insert it as far as the
thread.
.Dispose of the used oil in accordance with
applicable regulations.
Maintenance of the air filter (Fig. 14)
A soiled air filter will reduce the performance
of the engine because it will prevent enough
air getting to the carburetor. It is therefore
imperative that regular checks are made. The
air filter should be checked every 25 hours and
cleaned if required. If the air is very dusty the air
filter should be checked more regularly.
Important: Never clean the air filter with petrol or
inflammable cleaning agents. Clean the air filter
with compressed air or simply by knocking out
any soiling.
Maintenance of the spark plug
Check the spark plug for dirt and grime after 10
hours of operation and if necessary clean it with
a copper wire brush. Thereafter service the spark
plug after every 50 hours of operation.
. Pull off the spark plug boot (Fig. 15/Item 18)
with a twist.
. Remove the spark plug with the supplied spark
plug wrench.
. Assemble in reverse order.
