Carbon Brushes; Replacing The Power Cable; Cleaning, Maintenance And Ordering Of Spare Parts - EINHELL GC-EM 1000/30 Manual De Instrucciones

To take off the grass basket, use one hand to lift
up the chute fl ap and the other to grab onto the
basket handle. Remove the basket. For safety
reasons, the chute fl ap automatically falls down
after removing the grass basket and closes off the
rear chute opening. If any grass remains in the
opening, it will be easier to restart the engine if
you pull the mower back approximately 1m.
Do not use your hands or feet to remove clippings
in or on the mower housing, but instead use suita-
ble tools such as a brush or a hand broom.
In order to ensure that the majority of grass clip-
pings are picked up, the inside of both the grass
basket and especially the net must be cleaned
after each use.
Reattach the grass basket only when the motor is
switched off and the blade has stopped.
Lift up the chute fl ap with one hand and, holding
the grass basket by its handle with the other
hand, hang in the basket from the top.

If the power cable for this equipment is damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
after-sales service or similarly trained personnel
to avoid danger.
8. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Danger!

ting any cleaning work.
8.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it with compressed air at low
pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could at-
tack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensu-
re that no water can seep into the device. The

ingress of water into an electric tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.

8.2 Carbon brushes

In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon
brushes checked only by a qualifi ed electrician.
Danger! The carbon brushes should not be rep
laced by anyone but a qualifi ed electrician.
8.3 Servicing
•
Worn out or damaged blades, blade mounts,
and bolts should be replaced as a set by an
authorized professional in order to keep the
machine in balance.
•
Do not clean the lawn mower with running
water, particularly with high-pressure water.
Ensure that all mounting components (i.e.
screws, bolts, nuts etc.) are always tightened
so that the machine can be safely operated at
all times.
•
Frequently check the grass catch assembly
for signs of wear.
•
Replace excessively worn or damaged parts
immediately.
•
Store your lawn mower in a dry room.
•
In order to ensure that you enjoy your scarifier
for many years to come, all screwed parts, as
well as the wheels and axles, should be clea-
ned and lubricated.
•
Keeping your hand mower in good condition
not only ensures a long lifespan and high
performance, but also enables the machine to
thoroughly cut your grass with minimal effort.
For best results, clean the lawn mower with a
brush or rag. Do not use any solvents or water
to remove dirt.
•
The cutting components - i.e. the knife cage
and lower knife blade - are subjected to more
wear and tear than any other component
of the unit. Therefore, routinely check the
condition of the blade and make sure that it
is tightly fastened. If the blade is completely
worn out, it must be immediately replaced or
ground sharp again. An excessively vibrating
mower means that the blade is not properly
balanced or has become deformed from
striking an object. In this case, the blade must
be repaired or replaced.
•
There are no parts inside the equipment
which require additional maintenance.
