Maintenance interval:
Each time the appliance is
used
Clean the appliance thoroughly
after mowing. Looking after
your appliance carefully will
protect it against damage and
extend its service life.
Clean the underside of the
mower with water and a brush.
Detach accumulated cutting
deposits in the housing and in
the ejection chute beforehand
using a stick.
Clean the mowing blade.
Never spray water onto
engine components, seals,
bearing points or electrical
parts such as switches. This
would result in expensive
repairs.
Do not use aggressive
cleaning agents. These
cleaners can damage plastics
and metals, impairing safe
operation of your VIKING
mower.
If you are unable to remove
the dirt with water, using a
brush or a cloth, VIKING
recommends the use of a
special cleaner (e.g. STIHL
special cleaner).
Please note:
Tilt up front of mower when
carrying out cleaning or
maintenance work. Never tilt
to the side, otherwise petrol
will run out.
Empty the fuel tank (run
empty), release the rotary
handles and lift the ejection
flap before tilting upwards.
