VARIATOR CONTROL
When the mower is delivered, the variator cable is
set so that the transmission cannot be damaged.
The cable may need tightening, see under heading
“ADJUSTING VARIATOR CABLE“ in the
section “MAINTENANCE“.
GRASS COLLECTOR
Fit the fabric bag over the steel frame and then
snap the bag onto the plastic lid (fig. 11).
Open the flap on the machine and attach the grass
collector to the brackets (fig. 12).
NOTE! The lawnmower can be operated without
the grass collector. The grass is then left in a line
behind the machine.
BATTERY (*)
The electrolyte in the battery is toxic
and corrosive. It can cause serious
corrosion damage etc. Avoid all contact
with skin, eyes and clothing.
Before starting for the first time, the battery should
be charged for 24 hours, see further information
under the heading MAINTENANCE, BATTERY.
Insert ignition key (*) into the ignition lock.
USING THE MOWER
When mowing, the grass is collected in the
collector. Empty the grass onto the compost heap
or spread it over borders as fertiliser. The machine
is also ideal for collecting up leaves in the autumn.
BEFORE STARTING
FILL THE CRANKCASE WITH OIL
The lawnmower is delivered without
any oil in the engine crankcase. The
crankcase must be filled with oil before
the engine is started for the first time.
Remove the oil dipstick (fig. 13, 14). Fill the
engine’s crankcase with 0.55 litres of good quality
oil (service class SE, SF or SG). Use SAE 30 or
SAE 10W-30 oil.
Slowly fill to ‘FULL/MAX’. Do not overfill.
CHECK THE OIL LEVEL
Check before using the machine that the oil level is
between ‘FULL/MAX’ and ‘ADD/MIN’ on the
dipstick.
Remove and wipe off the dipstick (fig. 13, 14).
Slide it down completely and tighten it. Unscrew
and pull it up again. Read off the oil level. If the oil
level is low, fill with oil up to the ‘FULL/MAX’
mark.
FILL UP THE PETROL TANK
Never remove the filler cap or fill with
petrol while the engine is running or still
warm.
Never completely fill the petrol tank.
Allow a little room for the petrol to
expand if necessary.
Preferably use environmentally friendly petrol, i.e.
alkylate petrol. This type of petrol has a
composition that is less harmful to people and
nature. It has e.g. no lead additives, no oxygenators
(alcohols and ethers), no alkenes and no benzene.
NOTE! If you change to
environmentally friendly petrol in an
engine previously run on ordinary lead-
free petrol (95), the petrol
manufacturer’s recommendations must
be followed carefully.
Ordinary lead-free 95 octane petrol can also be
used. You must never use 2-stroke petrol mixed
with oil. NOTE! Bear in mind that ordinary lead-
free petrol is a perishable; do not purchase more
petrolthancanbeusedwithinthirtydays.
STARTING THE MOTOR
(Briggs & Stratton)
1. Place the lawnmower on flat, firm ground. Do
not start in long grass.
2. Make sure the spark plug cable is connected to
the spark plug.
3. When starting a cold engine: Press down the
primer fully 6 times (fig. 15).
When starting a warm engine, the primer does
not need to be used. If the engine stops due to a
lack of fuel, refill and press down the primer 3
times.
