start the engine by pulling briskly on the starter
handle.
6b Electric starting facility (*): Start the engine by
turning the starter key clock-wise. Release the

wheels release their grip on the ground, turning, re-
versing, moving round trees etc. can be done with-
out having to disengage the drive system.
STOP OF ENGINE
The motor may be very warm immedi-
ately after it is shut off. Do not touch the
silencer, cylinder or cooling flanges as it
can cause burns and injury.
1. Release Start/Stop-loop H to stop the engine
(fig. 7). This loop must not be disengaged (e.g.
through fixing it in the depressed position
against the steering), as the engine cannot be
stopped.
2. If the lawn mower is left unattended to, remove
the lead from the spark plug.
Tornado 51 SE: Remove the starter key.
If the start/stop loop no longer works,
stop the engine by removing the lead
from the spark plug. Immediately take
the lawn mower to an authorised work-
shop for repairs.
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.
Avoid mowing when the grass is wet. The grass
then sticks to the underside of the casing, giving
poor mowing results.
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 8
positions to be most suitable for your lawn (fig. 8).
MAINTENANCE
Noserviceistobemadeonthemotoror
grass cutter unit without first switching
off the motor and removing the spark
plug cable 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 machine is to be tilted the fuel tank
must be emptied and the sparking plug
of the engine kept upwards.
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 underside a touch of paint to prevent rusting.
Clean the silencer and the surrounding
area regularly to remove grass, dirt and
flammable waste products.
