the growing conditions in the work area.
Keep in mind that most grass is made up of a stem and one
or more leaves. If leaves are fully cut, the lawn is damaged
and growth is more difficult.
The following indications generally apply:
– cutting too low tears and uproots the grass, giving it a
"spotted" appearance;
– in the summer, cutting must be higher to prevent the
ground from drying;
– do not cut wet grass; this could reduce cutting means ef-
ficiency due to sticky grass and tear the lawn.
– for particularly high grass, initially mow at the maximum
height allowed by the machine then mow again after two
or three days.
3.4
End of operations
When work has been completed, release the brake lever (1)
and disconnect the spark plug cap (2).
On models where it is provided, remove the ignition key (3).
WAIT UNTIL THE CUTTING MEANS STOPS before pro-
ceeding any further.

4. ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Store the lawnmower in a dry place.
IMPORTANT Routine and accurate maintenance is es-
sential in maintaining original machine safety and perform-
ance levels.
Adjustments or maintenance operations must only be per-
formed with the engine switched off and the spark plug ca-
ble disconnected.
1) Wear strong protective gloves before cleaning, main-
taining or adjusting the machine.
2) Accurately wash the machine with water after cutting;
remove grass debris and mud accumulated in the chas-
sis to prevent it from drying and causing problems the
next time the lawnmower is used.
3) If accessing the lower part is necessary, only tilt the ma-
chine on the side indicated in the engine manual, fol-
lowing the relevant instructions, making sure that the
machine is perfectly stable before performing any in-
terventions.
4) Do not drip petrol onto the plastic parts of the engine or
the machine to prevent damaging them and remove all
traces of spilled petrol immediately. The warranty does
not cover damage to plastic parts caused by petrol.

4.1 Cutting means maintenance

It is best if all interventions on the cutting means are done
at a specialised Centre that has the most appropriate tools
and equipment.
Only cutting means bearing the code indicated in the table
on page ii must be used on this machine.
Given product evolution, the above mentioned cutting
means may be replaced in time with others having similar
interchangeable and operating safety features.
4.2 Drive adjustment
The proper belt tension can be obtained using the screw
(1), up to the indicated value (6 mm with 0.5 kg of thrust).
4.3 Battery recharging (where applicable)
To recharge a flat battery, connect it to the battery charg-
er (1) following the instructions in the battery maintenance
manual.
Do not connect the battery charger directly to the engine
terminal. It is not possible to ignite the engine using the
battery charger as a power source, as it may get damaged.
If you do not use the lawnmower for a long period of time,
disconnect the battery from the engine wiring, making sure
the charge level is good.
