•
After mowing, use a piece of wood
or plastic to remove adherent plant
remains from the wheels, ventilation
holes, ejection hole and blade area.
Do not use hard or pointed objects, as
these may damage the blade.
•
Oil the wheels from time to time.
•
Before each use, check the lawnmow-
er for obvious defects such as loose,
worn or damaged parts. Check that
all nuts, bolts and screws are sitting
firmly.
•
Check the covers and protective de-
vices for damage and check that they
are sitting correctly. Replace them if
necessary.
Changing the Blade
If the blade is blunt, it can be sharpened
by a specialist workshop. If the blade
is damaged or showing signs of imbal-
ance, it must be replaced (see chapter on
"Spare Parts").
1. Turn the equipment over.
2. Use sturdy gloves and hold the blade
firmly (29). Use a spanner to turn the
blade bolt (30) counter-clockwise from
the motor spindle.
3. Install the new blade in the reverse
order. Ensure that the blade is posi-
tioned correctly and the screw tight-
ened firmly.
Adjusting the Bowden Ca-
ble
If the Bowden cable becomes misplaced
for the drive and has too much play, it can
be adjusted.
1. Loosen the small lock nut (31).
2. -Turn the adjusting nut (32) anticlock-
wise:
The Bowden cable shortens.
-Turn the adjusting nut (32) clockwise:
The Bowden cable lengthens.
Storage
So the equipment takes up less space,
unlock the two tensioning levers and fold
down the bow handle. Make sure the ca-
bles are not caught.
•
Keep the equipment dry and out of
reach of children.
•
Allow the motor to cool before storing
the equipment in a confined space.
•
Do not cover the equipment with nylon
bags as moisture could build up.
We will not be liable for damages caused
by our equipment where these are caused
by improper repair or the use of non-
original parts or by use other than for the
intended purpose.
Waste disposal and envi-
ronmental protection
Do not dispose of used oil in the sewage
system or drains. Dispose of used oil in
an environmentally correct manner - bring
it to a waste disposal center.
Be environmentally friendly. Return the
tool, accessories and packaging to a recy-
cling
centre when you have finished with
them.
Machines do not belong with do-
mestic waste.
