Selection of Cutting height
If possible, mow when grass is dry in order to protect turf. Do not set cutting position too low when mowing very tall or wet grass. We
recommend an average cutting height of 4,5 cm.

grip slowly. To stop engine: Release operator presence bail arm B6 (3). To start warm engine: Lift and hold operator presence
bail arm B6 (3). Pull starter rope B7 (4) rapidly and return starter grip slowly. Should the engine not start in cold weather, press
the primer. If the engine stops because fuel hast run out, refill fuel tank. Press the primer (three times).
Mowing (fig. B8)
Always mow using throttle lever setting Power. Mow with throttle lever on „Betrieb“ position. Start engine with mower placed on level and firm
ground. Turn mower on lawn area already mown. Do not leave mower standing with engine running for longer than absolutely necessary.
Emptying of Grassbox
The grassbox is full and should be emptied as soon as grass clippings remain uncollected on the ground behind your mower.
Fixing of handle
ATTENTION! Take care that the switch cable does not become caught and crused when fol-ding the handle frame (fig. M1/M2/M3).
•NOTE: Danger when grass box equipment is inappropriately handled.
•
If the mower is a self-propelled version then release the drive clutch bail before you switch on the engine. Do not touch engine or exhaust during
or shortly
after operation. Hot parts can lead to burns or provoke frightened movements which may lead to injuries.
•Turn the engine off if you the leave the lawnmower unattended and before you refuel.
5. After working:
•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.
• Do not leave the mower in closed areas after switching off - allow it to cool off in the open air before storing away.
•Never keep the machine with petrol in the tank within a building in which gasoline vapours may possibly come into contact with naked flames or
sparks. Before leaving the mower remove the spark plug lead and - if fitted - the starting key.
•Lifting and carrying the mower for transport:
•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.
•When folding the mower handlebars, detach starter cable and make certain that the control cables are not snagged or stretched when folding or
unfolding.
•Always carry out the engine oil change with the fuek tank empty anf filler cap fitted. Th engine should be warmed up prior to draining the oil to
ensure all sludge deposits are drained away with the oil.
6. Maintenance
•Regularly examine all fixing bolts and nuts, particularly those of the cutter bar, for tightness.
•Maintenance and cleaning of the equipment as well as removing the protection device may only be performed with the engine stopped and the
spark plug lead and - if available - the starting key, removed. Note information on the chassis before cleaning and oil change!
•Make certain that all nuts, pins and screws are firmly tightened and that the unit is in a safe operating condition.
•In order to avoid the risk of fire keep the engine, exhaust, battery box and the area around the fuel tank free of grass, leaves or oil.
•If the equipment must be tilted for maintenance work then the fuel must be completely drained from the tank beforehand.
•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.
•Do not place the equipment in damp areas, near naked flames or where a spark might ignite petrol vapour.
•If the fuel tank is to be emptied then this should be done outdoors. Make sure that no fuel is spilled.
• For safety reasons replace worn out or damaged parts.
• NOTE! Always have blades replaced or sharpened by a WOLF Service Centre, as a blade balance test must be performed in accordance with
safety regulations and the blade retaining bolt must be tightened to a specified torque.
• Wear suitable work gloves when carrying out the above work, especially when handling the blade.
