z Before use a visual inspection should also be made in order to

determine whether the blade, fasteners and the mower deck

are worn or damaged. In order to avoid damaging vibration

caused by imbalance, worn out or damaged blades and fit-

tings must only be replaced as a set.

z For safety reasons the fuel filler cap must be replaced when

damaged.

z Check the fuel line connections, air filter fittings, etc. for tight-

ness.

When starting the engine

z Only start the engine if your hands and feet are at safe distan-

ce from the mower deck and blade.

z Before you start the engine, disengage the drive.

z When starting or switching on the engine the lawn mower

must not be tilted, unless the lawn mower must be raised for

the procedure. In this case, you tilt it only so far as is absolu-

tely necessary and only raise the side turned away from the

operator.

z Do not let the engine run in closed areas in which dangerous

carbon monoxide may accumulate.

z Start the mower on an even surface, not in tall grass.

z Do not start the engine if you are standing in front of the

discharge channel.

When Mowing

z WARNING, DANGER! Rotating blade!

z Do not attempt to touch the blade when it is running.

z Observe the safety distance provided by the handlebars and

bail arms.

z Only start the engine if your feet are at a safe distance from

the blade.

z Make certain that you have a secure foothold, particularly on

slopes. Never run, always walk calmly.

z Always mow slopes along the contours, not up and down the

slope.

z Particular care is required on slopes as you change direction.

z Be particularly careful when you turn the mower and pull it to-

wards you.

z Switch off the mower, if you tilt it, run it dry or when transpor-

ting it.

z Never use the lawn mower with damaged protection guards,

safety devices or grilles or without the protection devices atta-

ched, e.g. baffle plates and/or grass box.

z Do not change the governor adjustment of the engine or att-

empt to adjust it.

z The blade must be stopped if the lawn mower is moved off the

lawn.

z Before you raise or carry the mower switch off the engine off

and wait until the blade has come to a complete stop.

z Adjust the cutting height only with the engine switched off and

with the blade at a standstill.

z Never open the protection flap if the engine is still running.

z Before removing the grass box: Turn off the engine and wait

for the blade to stop. Carefully refit the grass box after empty-

ing.

z Never drive over gravel with the engine running - stones can

be thrown by contact with the blade!

z Where possible, do not mow in wet grass. If the mower ap-

pears to have blocked, turn off the engine, remove the spark

plug lead and wait until the blade comes to a standstill if, for

example:

– to free a blockage in the ejection channel

– to examine or clean the mower

– if a foreign body is encountered. Check whether mower

deck or blade have been damaged. Then correct or repair

the damage before recommencing mowing.

– if the mower strongly vibrates from imbalance (then switch

off immediately and look for the cause).

z NOTE: Danger when grass box equipment is inappropriately

handled.

z If the mower is a self-propelled version then release the drive

clutch bail before you switch on the engine. Do not touch en-

gine or exhaust during or shortly after operation. Hot parts can

lead to burns or provoke frightened movements which may

lead to injuries.

z Turn the engine off if you the leave the lawn mower unatten-

ded and before you refuel.

After working

z The throttle should be closed before switching off the engine.

If the engine is equipped with a petrol shut-off valve then this

be closed after mowing has been completed.

z Do not leave the mower in closed areas after switching off - al-

low it to cool off in the open air before storing away.

z Never keep the machine with petrol in the tank within a buil-

ding in which gasoline vapours may possibly come into con-

tact with naked flames or sparks. Before leaving the mower

remove the spark plug lead and - if fitted - the starting key.

z Lifting and carrying the mower for transport:

z Never attempt to lift the mower with the engine running - nor

with a hot engine - always remove the spark plug lead before

lifting or carrying.

z When folding the mower handlebars, detach starter rope and

make certain that the control cables are not snagged or stret-

ched when folding or unfolding.

z Always carry out the engine oil change with the fuel tank emp-

ty and filler cap fitted. The engine should be warmed up prior

to draining the oil to ensure all sludge deposits are drained

away with the oil.

Maintenance

z Regularly examine all fixing bolts and nuts, particularly those

of the cutter bar, for tightness.

z Maintenance and cleaning of the equipment as well as remo-

ving the protection device may only be performed with the en-

gine stopped and the spark plug lead and - if available - the

starting key, removed.

z Note information on the chassis before cleaning and oil chan-

ge!

z Make certain that all nuts, pins and screws are firmly tightened

and that the unit is in a safe operating condition.

z In order to avoid the risk of fire keep the engine, exhaust, bat-

tery box and the area around the fuel tank free of grass, leaves

or oil.

z If the equipment must be tilted for maintenance work then the

fuel must be completely drained from the tank beforehand.

z Clean the equipment after each use with a hand-brush - not

with water and do not hose down with a high pressure hose in

particular. Make certain to keep the engine cooling fins and

engine cooling air intake clean and free from debris.

z Do not place the equipment in damp areas, near naked flames

or where a spark might ignite petrol vapour.

z If the fuel tank is to be emptied then this should be done out-

doors. Make sure that no fuel is spilled.
