Original User Manual FUXTEC Petrol Lawnmower FX-RM4180
Fill the oil tank with SAE30 or 15W-40 oil. When the dipstick is inserted and screwed into the hole,
the oil level should be between the Min and Max marks. Refrain from filling the oil tank overfull.
Start the engine and let it run for a short time. Switch off the engine, wait 1 minute and measure the
oil level in the oil tank again. If necessary, top up the oil to the desired level. (see also chapter
"Before first use").
General instructions for maintenance:
All nuts, bolts, and screws must be tightened appropriately so that the device is in a safe and
operational condition. Regular maintenance is an essential requirement for the safety of the user,
the maintenance of the operating condition, and the device's performance.
Never store a device with petrol in the tank in a building where the fumes could come into contact
with open fire, sparks, or high temperatures.
Allow the engine to cool down before packing it in an enclosed space.
To reduce the fire risk, ensure that the device, especially the engine, the muffler and where the
replacement fuel is stored, are free from grass, leaves, or excessive amounts of lubricants.
Regularly check the condition of the catcher cover and the grass catcher and replace them if
damaged.
Drain the fuel in a well-ventilated area when the engine has cooled down.
Use thick work gloves when removing and installing the cutting blade.
ATTENTION:
Before doing maintenance or repair work, switch off the engine and remove the spark plug.
Check the mower regularly and ensure that all grass deposits on the underside of the chassis are
removed.
Lubricate the axle of the chassis and the bearings regularly with a suitable lubricant.
Regularly check the condition of the blades, as they have a significant impact on the performance of
the device. The edges should always be sharp and balanced.
Check at regular intervals that all screws and nuts are tight. Worn or incorrectly tightened bolts and
nuts can cause severe damage to the engine or frame.
If the blade hits an obstacle hard, stop the device and contact FUXTEC Customer Service.
The cutting blade is made of pressed steel. For optimum mowing results, sharpen the blade regularly,
approximately every 25 hours. Check that the blade is always properly balanced. To do this, insert a
steel axle (with a diameter of 2-3 mm) into the middle hole. When the axis is aligned correctly, it
remains in the horizontal position.
If the knife does not stay in the horizontal position, replace it.
When removing the knife, unscrew the bolt and check the knife holder. If the parts are worn or
damaged, replace them.
ATTENTION:
Always use original spare parts. Low-quality spare parts can severely damage the device and pose a
safety hazard.
