SPEED (*)
Do not touch the variator control when
the motor is not operational. This can
have an adverse effect on the variator's
performance.
Set a suitable speed by moving the variator lever
into one of the 4 positions (fig. 16).
The different positions have the following speeds:
Position : approx. 2.8 km/h
Position 2: approx. 3.1km/h
Position 3: approx. 3.6 km/h
Position : approx. 4.5 km/h
CUTTING HEIGHT
Shut off the motor before adjusting the
cutting height.
Do not set the cutting height so low that
the blade/blades can hit uneven ground.
The mower is fitted with a single lever control for
adjusting the cutting height. Pull the lever out-
wards and adjust the cutting height on one of the
nine positions to be most suitable for your lawn
(fig. 17).
MAINTENANCE
Neitherthemotornorthelawnmower
may be serviced before the ignition ca-
ble is removed from the spark plug.
Stop the motor and remove the spark
plug cable if the mower is to be lifted,
e.g. with transportation.
If the lawn mower needs to be tilted it
should be tilted so that the spark plug
faces upwards. Tilt the lawn mower
when the fuel tank is empty.
CLEANING
After each time it is used the mower should be
cleaned. This is particularly important on the un-
derside of the mower casing. Wash out with the
garden hose. The mower will then last longer and
function better.Note! High pressure washing units
should not be used.
If grass has dried on to the cutterhead casing it can
be removed by scraping. If necessary, give the un-
derside a touch of paint to prevent rusting.
Clean the silencer and the surrounding
area regularly to remove grass, dirt and
flammable waste products.
Take off the transmission cover by removing the
screws S (fig. 28) and clean the area around the
transmission (*) and drive belt (*) using a brush or
compressed air. Clean once or twice a year.
You should clean the inside of the drive wheels (*)
once every season. Remove both wheels. Brush or
blow-clean the gear and the wheels' gear ring from
grass and dirt (fig. 18). Refit the wheels.
COOLING SYSTEM
Before using the lawn mower, the engine’s cooling
system must be cleaned. Clean the cylinder’s cool-
ing flanges and air inlet to make sure they are free
from grass, dirt, etc.
LUBRICATING THE DRIVESHAFT (*)
You should grease the key on the driveshaft once
every season. Remove the wheel (hub cap, screw
and washer). Then remove the E-circlip and wash-
er to enable the gear to be removed from the shaft.
Grease the key with universal grease.
Refit the key (different key fitments on right- and
left-hand sides, see fig. 19-20). Install the gear so
that the L mark will be facing outwards on the left-
hand side, and the R mark facing outwards on the
right-hand side (mower viewed from behind).
CHANGING OIL
Replace the oil when the engine is warm
and the fuel tank is empty. Take care

prevent burns.
Change the oil the first time after 5 hours of oper-
ation, and subsequently after every 50 hours of op-
eration or once a season. Remove the dip stick, tilt
the mower and let the oil run out into a container.
Be careful not to let any oil run on to the grass.
Fill with new oil: use oil of SAE 30 or SAE 10W-
30 quality. The crankcase holds approx. 0.6 litre.
Fill until the oil reaches the “FULL/MAX” mark
on the dip stick.
AIR FILTER
A dirty and blocked air filter reduces the engine
output and increases engine wear.
