Setting the cutting height

m CAUTION!

Adjust the cutting height only when the engine is

switched off and the plug boot has been pulled.

• Before you begin to mow, check to ensure that the

blade is not blunt and that none of the fasteners are

damaged.

• To prevent any imbalance, replace blunt and/or

damaged blades as a set only (if applicable). To

carry out this check, rst switch off the engine and

pull the spark plug boot.

• The cutting height is centrally adjusted with the cut-

ting height adjustor lever (Fig.13/ Item 14). 5 differ-

ent cutting heights can be selected.

• Pull the adjustor lever out and select the desired

cutting height. The lever snaps into the desired po-

sition. (Fig. 13)

Preparing the area to be mowed

Before mowing, carefully examine the area. Remove

stones, sticks, bones, wires, toys and other objects

that may be ejected.

8. Operation

m CAUTION!

The engine does not come with oil in it. There-

fore, ensure that you add 0,45 liters of oil before

starting it up. Use normal, multigrade oil (SAE30).

The oil level in the engine must be checked each

time before mowing.

You will also need to ll in petrol, as this is also

not supplied upon delivery.

• In order to avoid any unintentional start-ups of the

lawn mower, it comes equipped with an engine

brake (Fig. 1/ Item 3) which must be pulled back

before the engine can be started. When the engine

control lever is released it must return to its initial

position, at which point the engine automatically

switches off.

• Press the engine brake lever (3) together and give

the starter cord (17) a vigorous pull. (Fig. 14)

Attention:

When you pull the starting rope the cutting blade

rotates even when dissolved motor brake lever.

Make sure that there are no body parts in danger

zone of cutting blade.

• When the engine is running, press the drive lever

(2) to the handle (1) in order to engage drive on the

mower.

• Before you start mowing, you should run through

this operation several times in order to ensure that

the machine is working properly.

m WARNING

Whenever you need to perform any kind of ad-

justment and/or repair work on your lawn mower,

wait until the blade has come to a complete stop.

Always switch off the engine before carrying out

any adjustments, maintenance or repairs.

m Note!

Using the drive:

• Engine brake (3): Use the lever to stop the engine.

When you release the lever the engine and the

blade stop automatically.

• To mow, hold the drive lever (2) in the working po-

sition. Before you start to mow, check the start/

stop lever several times to be sure that it is work-

ing properly. Ensure that the tension cable can be

smoothly operated (i.e. is not catching or kinking in

any way).

• Drive lever (2):

If you press this the clutch for the drive will be

closed and the lawnmower will start to move with

the motor running. Release the drive lever in good

time to stop the moving lawnmower. Practice start-

ing and stopping before you use the mower for the

rst time until you are familiar with controlling the

mower.

Caution: The blade begins to rotate as soon as the

engine is started.

Important: Before you start the engine, move the

motor brake several times to be sure that the stop

cable is properly working.

Note: The engine is factory set to a speed that is op-

timal for cutting and blowing grass into the basket and

is designed to provide many years of use.

• Check the oil level.

• Open the fuel tank cap and ll the petrol tank (6)

up to the lower point of the tank inlet with about 0.8

litres of petrol. Use a funnel and a measuring con-

tainer for lling. Do not overll the tank. Use fresh,

clean unleaded fuel.

Never mix oil with petrol. Buy fuel in amounts which

can be used within 30 days in order to guarantee

its freshness.

Note: Use only unleaded gasoline.
