Cleaning, Maintenance, Storage, Transport And Ordering Of Spare Parts - EINHELL GC-PM 46/1 S B&S Mode D'emploi D'origine

In order to ensure that the majority of grass clip-
pings are picked up, the inside of both the grass
bag and especially the air grill must be cleaned
after each use.
Reattach the grass bag only when the engine is
switched off and the blade is stopped.
Using one hand, lift up the chute fl ap, while grab-
bing onto the basket handle with the other. Hang
in the basket from the top.
7. Cleaning, maintenance, storage,
transport and ordering of spare
parts
Danger!
Never work on or touch any current-conducting
parts of the ignition system while the engine is
running. Pull the spark plug boot from the spark
boot before doing any maintenance or assembly
work. Never carry out any work on the equipment
while the engine is running. Work that is not de-
scribed in these operating instructions, should
only be carried out by authorized workshops.
7.1 Cleaning
The lawn mower should be cleaned thoroughly
every time after it has been used. This applies in
particular to its underside and the blade mount.
Tilt the lawn mower to the rear by pressing down
the push bar.
Note: Before tilting the lawn mower, use a petrol
extraction pump to drain all the fuel out of the
fuel tank. Do not tilt the lawn mower by more
than 90 degrees. It is easiest to remove dirt and
grass immediately after mowing. Dried grass
remnants and dirt may impair the mowing ope-
ration. Check whether the grass ejector chute is
free of grass residues and clear out as required.
Never clean the lawn mower using a water jet or a
high-pressure cleaner. Ensure that no water can
get into the interior of the equipment. Do not use
aggressive cleaning agents such as cold cleaners
or petroleum ether.
7.2 Maintenance
Note: Dispose of soiled maintenance material
and operating materials at the appropriate collec-
tion point.

7.2.1 Petrol engine
The enclosed engine manual from Briggs &
Stratton provides maintenance information
and maintenance interval information on the
engine.
7.2.2 Blades
For safety reasons, have all blade sharpening,
balancing and mounting work carried out by an
authorized service center. To achieve optimal re-
sults, we recommend having the blades checked
once a year.
Changing the blades (Fig. 7)
When changing the cutting unit, be sure to use
only genuine replacement parts. The identifi cation
mark on the blade must correspond with the num-
ber specifi ed in the spare parts list.
Never install a blade from a diff erent manufactu-
rer.
Damaged blades
If, in spite of all caution, the blade comes into con-
tact with an obstacle, switch off the engine imme-
diately and pull off the spark plug connector.
Tilt the lawn mower to the rear and check the
blade for damage. Damaged or bent blades must
be replaced. Never straighten a bent blade. Never
work with bent or heavily worn blades as this will
result in vibrations, causing further damage to the
mower.
Warning! Risk of injury when working with a da-
maged blade.
7.2.3 Axles and wheel hubs
Grease should be applied to the axles and wheel
hubs once per season.
To do so, remove the wheel caps with a screwdri-
ver and loosen the fastening screws on the
wheels.
7.2.4 Care and adjustment of the actuator
cables
Oil the actuator cables at regular intervals and
check that they move easily.
7.2.5 Inspecting the V-belt
Remove the blade as described in 7.2.2.
To inspect the V-belt you must remove the V-belt
cover (Fig. 8/Item D).
