8.3 Checking and renewing the cutting
blade
■
Check the cutting blade regularly for damage.
Only have blunt or damaged cutting blades
sharpened/replaced by an AL-KO service
centre or authorised specialist company.
■
Resharpened cutting blades must be bal-
anced. Unbalanced cutting blades cause
strong vibrations and damage the mower.
■
Tightening torque of the blade screw 55 Nm
+5.
8.4 Adjusting the Bowden cable of the
wheel drive (14)
The Bowden cable of the wheel drive lengthens
over time. If the wheel drive can no longer be
switched on with the motor running, the Bowden
cable has become too long and must be
tightened.
CAUTION!
Risk of injury
Sharp-edged and moving appliance parts
(e.g. cutting blade) as well as a suddenly
starting lawnmower can lead to injuries.
■
Only adjust the Bowden cable with
the motor switched off.
1. Switch off the appliance and wait until the
mower mechanism has stopped.
2. Turn the adjusting part (14/1) on the Bowden
cable (14/2) in the direction of the arrow, i.e.
anticlockwise until the Bowden cable is taut
between the gear engagement bar (14/3) and
holding point (14/4).
3. To check the Bowden cable setting: Switch
on the appliance, start the motor and try to
switch on the wheel drive.
4. If the wheel drive does not switch on: Repeat
the previous steps.
If the adjustment of the Bowden cable is not suc-
cessful: Contact an AL-KO service centre.

9 TRANSPORT

NOTE
The nominal energy of the rechargeable
battery is more than 100 Wh. Therefore,
heed the following transport instructions.
The li-ion rechargeable battery contained in the
appliance is subject to the hazardous goods law,
but can be transported under simplified condi-
tions:
■
The rechargeable battery can be transported
on public roads by the private user without
further conditions provided it is packaged for
retail sale and the transport serves personal
purposes.
■
Commercial users who carry out the trans-
port in connection with their main activity
(e.g. delivery from and to building sites, or
demonstrations) can also take advantage of
this simplification.
In both cases, it is essential to take the mandat-
ory precautions mentioned above to prevent any
leakage of the contents. In other cases, it is es-
sential to comply with the regulations of the haz-
ardous goods law. In the case of non-compli-
ance, severe penalties can be imposed on the
sender and possibly the transporter.
Additional notes on transport and shipment
■
Only transport or ship lithium-ion re-
chargeable batteries in an undamaged state.
■
For transporting the rechargeable battery,
only use the original cardboard box or a suit-
able hazardous goods cardboard box (not re-
quired for rechargeable batteries with a nom-
inal energy less than 100 Wh).
■
Tape off exposed rechargeable battery con-
tacts to avoid a short circuit.
