MOWING HINTS
For the best effect follow this advice:
- mow regularly
- use full throttle on the engine.
- keep the underside of the mower deck clean.
- use sharp blades.
- do not mow wet grass.
MAINTENANCE
No service work to the engine or mower
deck is to be carried out unless the fol-
lowing action has been taken:
- the engine has been stopped.
- the ignition key has been removed.
- the ignition cable has been removed
from the spark plug.
- the parking brake is engaged.
- the mower deck has been disengaged.
CLEANING
Rinse off the underside of the mower deck casing
with a garden hose after using the mower.
If grass has dried onto the casing dismantle the
mower deck and scrape the underside clean.
If necessary, to improve the underside it can be
painted to prevent rust.
Do not spray with high pressure water
against the bearing housings on top of
the mower deck when the transmission
cover is removed. Otherwise water may
penetrate the bearings.
LUBRICATION
The attachment's support wheels are fitted with
two grease nipples J (fig 1). Lubricate using a uni-
versal grease periodically during the season.
Grease other moving parts too.

sion casing (fig 4).
2. Loosen the spring which holds the tension roller.
3. Change the v-belt and replace in the reverse or-
der. Always use original v-belts.
BLADES
Use protective gloves to prevent cuts
when changing blades/blade tips.
Make sure the blades are always sharp. This gives
the best cutting results.
SHARPENING
For safety reasons the blades must not be sharp-
ened on an emery wheel. Incorrect sharpening ( =
high temperature) can result in the blades becom-
ing brittle.
When the blades are due to be sharpened, the wet
grinding method with a waterstone or grindstone is
to be used.
Following sharpening, the blades must
be balanced to avoid vibration damage.
CHANGING BLADES
Always use original spare parts when changing the
blades, blade attachments or bolts.
