Oil level check
m Attention! Never run the engine with no or too lit-
tle oil. This could cause severe damage to the engine.
Only use SAE30 engine oil.
Checking the oil level (fig. 18):
• Position the lawnmower on a straight, level surface.
• Remove the oil dipstick (12) by turning it to the left,
then wipe off the dipstick. Insert the dipstick back
in the filling nozzle as far as the stop, but do not
screw it back in.
• Pull out the dipstick and read the oil level horizon-
tally. The oil level must be positioned between the
max and min of the oil dipstick (12).
Changing the oil (fig. 23)
• The engine oil change should be completed annu-
ally before the start of the season while the engine
is at operating temperature and shut off.
• Only use engine oil (SAE 30).
• Empty the fuel tank (with a petrol suction pump).
• Place a flat oil collecting tray in front of the mower
(min. volume 1 litre).
• Remove the oil dipstick and tip over the mower until
all of the oil has drained into the oil collecting tray.
• Fill up with fresh engine oil up to the top mark on
the oil dipstick (approx. 0.4 l). Do not overfill the
machine.
• Attention! To check the oil level, do not screw in the
oil dipstick, but only insert it up to the thread.
Dispose of the used oil in accordance with applicable
regulations.
Cleaning the belts (fig. 17, 19)
• Remove the blade and the transmission housing by
undoing the screws.
• Clean the elements of the transmission and the
V-belt once or twice a year with a brush or com-
pressed air.
• Refit the transmission housing and the blade using
the screws.
Maintaining and adjusting the cables
Oil the cables at regular intervals and check that they
move easily.
Maintaining the air filter (fig. 20)
Fouled air filters diminish the engine output due to
reduced air supply to the carburettor. Regular inspec-
tion is therefore essential.
The air filter should be checked every 25 operating
hours and cleaned as required. The air filter must be
checked more often in case of very dusty air.
Unclip the air filter cover and remove the sponge filter
element.
Replace the air filter to avoid objects falling into the
air intake (fig. 20).
Attention: Never clean the air filter with petrol or in-
flammable cleaning agents. Clean the air filter with
compressed air or simply by knocking out any soiling.
Maintaining the spark plug (fig. 21)
Check the spark plug for dirt and grime after 10 op-
erating hours and if necessary, clean it with a copper
wire brush. Then service the spark plug every 50 op-
erating hours.
Remove the spark plug connector with a twist. Re-
move the spark plug (10) with a spark plug wrench.
Use a feeler gauge to set the gap to 0.75 mm( 0.030").
Refit the spark plug (10) and take care not to over-
tighten it.
Engine brake lever (fig. 1)
The engine is equipped with a mechanical brake (3)
which has to be checked regularly. When releasing
the brake lever, the blade must come to a standstill
within 7 seconds. If this is not the case, the machine
must not be used. Contact an authorised specialist
dealer.
Ensure that the device is in a flawless condition for its
entire service life.
Improper maintenance may lead to life-threatening
injuries.
