Never put your hands or feet near or under revolving parts. Always make sure that your hands or feet do not get
under the housing. Always maintain a safe distance from the ejector opening.
Turn the engine off and remove the spark plug connector, ensure that all moving parts have come to a complete
standstill, and that the spark plug key, if fitted, has been removed:
– before you check, clean or perform any work on the machine,
– before you remove any blockages or items clogging up the ejection chute.
– if any foreign objects have been encountered.
• If a foreign object has been encountered or if the machine becomes blocked, e.g. by driving onto an obstacle, a
specialist dealer must check whether parts of the machine have been damaged or deformed. Any necessary repairs
must also be carried out by an authorized specialist workshop.
• If you notice unusually strong vibrations in your machine, you must have it checked by an authorized dealer.
Switch the cutting deck off, and ensure that the cutter is at a standstill:
– when moving off the lawn onto paths or roads;
– if you want to adjust the cutting height;
– before removing the collector bag;
– before the mulch stopper is removed.
• Switch the engine off, and ensure that the ignition key, if fitted, is removed:
– if you have to lift or tilt the lawnmower, e.g. in order to transport it,
– if the machine is left unattended for a few minutes;
– before you re-fill the tank.
• If the engine is equipped with a petrol shut-off valve, this should be closed after mowing.
Maintenance and storage
• Ensure that all screws have been tightened securely and that the machine is in a safe working condition.
The ejection flap must only be opened and the grass collector or mulch stopper removed when the cutting deck
is switched off.
Never store a machine which still contains petrol inside a building where petrol fumes may come into contact
with naked flames or sparks or where they may ignite.
The engine and exhaust reach very high temperatures during operation.
Allow the machine to cool down for at least 15 minutes before starting any maintenance or cleaning work.
• In order to prevent a fire, please keep grass, leaves or leaking oil (grease) away from the engine, silencer (exhaust) and
petrol tank.
Always allow the engine to cool down before you store the machine in a closed room.
Always check the grass collector at regular intervals for wear and tear or loss of function.
Always check the condition and tightness of the blade prior to mowing. A worn or damaged blade must be
replaced immediately.
Changing, regrinding and balancing the cutting blade must be carried out by an authorised professional workshop.
A wrongly assembled cutting blade coupling can allow the cutting blade bar to get loose and cause severe injuries.
An improperly ground and imbalanced cutting blade can cause strong vibrations and damage the lawn mower.
• For reasons of safety, always replace worn or damaged parts.
Protective gloves must be worn at all times during maintenance and cleaning work.
Maintenance and cleaning work must only be carried out if the engine has been turned off and the spark plug
connector has been removed.
• If the tank has to be emptied, this should be done in the open, and with a cold engine. Take care to ensure that no fuel
is spilt.
For warranty and safety reasons, only original replacement parts may be used.
