ENGAGING/DISENGAGING THE
DRIVE
Engaging the drive is facilitated by pressing
down the handlebar so that the driving wheels
are raised slightly from the ground.
Engage the drive by pressing the clutch loop I to-
wards the handle. Disengage the drive by releasing
the clutch loop I (fig. 8, 9).
By allowing the driving wheels to be raised slight-
ly from the ground, turning, reversing, moving
round trees, etc., can be performed without having
to disengage the drive system.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
The engine may be very warm immedi-
ately after it is shut off. Do not touch the
silencer, cylinder or cooling fins. This
can cause burn injuries.
1. Release Start/Stop loop G to stop the engine
(fig. 8, 9). This loop must not be disengaged
(e.g. by setting it in the depressed position
against the handle), as it will not be possible to
stop the engine.
Honda: Close the fuel tap.
2. If the lawnmower is left unattended, remove the
spark plug cable from the spark plug.
Multiclip 46 SE: Also remove the starter key.
If the start/stop loop ceases to work, stop
the engine by removing the spark plug
cable from the spark plug. Immediately
take the lawnmower to an authorised
workshop for repair.
DRIVING TIPS
Before mowing the lawn, take care to remove any
stones, toys and other hard objects.
A machine with the MULTICLIP system cuts the
grass, chops it finely and then blows it down into the
lawn. The grass clippings need not be collected.
The following rules should be observed to give the
best MULTICLIP effect:
1. Use a high engine speed (full throttle).
2. Do not cut the grass too short. Not more than 1/
3rd of the length should be cut off.
3. Ensure that the area under the mower casing is
always kept clean.
4. Always use a well-sharpened blade.
5. Avoid mowing when the grass is wet. The grass
sticks more easily to the underside of the cas-
ing, giving poorer mowing results.
CUTTING HEIGHT
Shut off the engine before adjusting the
cutting height.
Do not set the cutting height so low that
the blades come into contact with une-
ven ground.
The lawnmower has rapid setting with 4 cutting
heights on the front wheels.
It is possible to vary the rear cutting height by
moving the wheel axle through four positions (fig.
13).
Make sure that you have the same cutting height
set on all wheels.
MAINTENANCE
No servicing is to be carried out on the
engine or mower unit without first
switching off the engine and removing
the spark plug cable from the spark
plug.
Multiclip 46 SE: No servicing may be
carried out on the engine or mower unit
without disconnecting the battery termi-
nal from the terminal on the motor (fig.
4).
Stop the engine and remove the spark
plug cable if the mower is to be lifted,
e.g. during transportation.
If the machine needs to be tilted, the fuel
tank must be emptied and the engine’s
spark plug kept upright.
CLEANING
After use, the mower should be cleaned. This is
particularly important on the underside of the
mower casing. Rinse clean with the garden hose.
The mower will then last longer and work better.
NOTE! High-pressure washers should not be used.
If grass has dried on to the mower casing, it can be
scraped clean. If necessary, touch up the underside
with paint to prevent rust damage.
