CARING FOR YOUR LAWNMOWER
Cleaning (USE GLOVES) (N)
It is very important that you keep your lawnmower
clean. Grass clippings left in any of the air intakes or
under the hood could become a potential fire hazard.
1. Remove grass from under the hood with a piece of
wood or similar.
2. Using a soft brush - remove grass clippings from
all
air intakes.
3. Remove the blade, see Figure L, to gain access to
the fan and clean with a soft brush.
4. Wipe over the surface of your lawnmower with a
dry cloth.
IMPORTANT: Never use water for cleaning your
lawnmower. Do not clean with chemicals, including
petrol, or solvents - some can destroy critical plastic parts.
At the End of the Mowing Season
1. Replace blade, bolts, nuts or screws, if necessary.
2. Clean your lawnmower thoroughly.
3. Ask your local Service Centre to clean the air filter
thoroughly and carry out any service or repairs
required.
4. Make sure that the electric cable is coiled properly.
Carrying your Lawnmower Ensure the blade is facing
away from you.
Storing your Lawnmower
Store in a dry place where your lawnmower is protected
from damage.
