Important: The enclosed engine manual from
Briggs & Stratton provides maintenance
information and maintenance interval information
on the engine.
Important:
Never work on or touch any current-conducting parts
of the ignition system while the engine is running. Pull
off the spark plug connector (Fig. 1/Item 6) from the
spark plug before doing any maintenance or
assembly work. Never carry out any work on the
equipment while the engine is running. Work that is
not described in these operating instructions should
only be carried out by authorized workshops.
8.1 Cleaning
The lawn mower should be cleaned thoroughly every
time after it has been used. This particularly applies to
its underside and the blade mount.
Note: Before placing the lawn mower, fully drain the
fuel tank using a petrol extraction pump. Do not tilt the
lawn mower by more than 90 degrees. It is easier to
remove dirt and grass immediately after mowing.
Dried grass remnants and dirt may impair the mowing
operation. Check if the grass ejector chute is free of
grass remnants and remove any if necessary. Never
clean the mower using a water jet or a high-pressure
cleaner. The engine must remain dry. Do not use
aggressive cleaning agents such as cold cleaners or
petroleum ether.

Important: The enclosed engine manual from
Briggs & Stratton provides maintenance
information and maintenance interval information
on the engine.
Dispose of soiled maintenance material and media at
the appropriate collection point
8.2.1 Wheel axles and wheel hubs
26
These should be lightly greased once a season. To
do so, remove the wheel caps with a screwdriver and
slacken the fastening screws on the wheels.
8.2.2 Blade
For safety reasons you should only ever have your
blade sharpened, balanced and mounted by an
authorized service workshop. For optimum results it
is recommended that the blade should be inspected
once a year.
Changing the blade (Fig. 8)
Only ever use original spare parts when having the
blade replaced. The marking on the blade must be
matched with the number given in the list of spare
parts. Never have any other model of blade fitted.
Damaged blades
Should the blade, in spite of all precautions, come
into contact with an obstruction, shut down the
engine immediately and pull the spark plug boot. Tip
the lawn mower onto its side and check the blade for
damage. Damaged or bent blades must be replaced.
Never attempt to bend a bent blade back to straight
again. Never mow the lawn with a bent or heavily
worn blade as this will cause vibrations and can lead
to further damage to the lawn mower.
Important: There is a risk of injury if you work with a
damaged blade.
Resharpening the blade
The blades can be resharpened with a metal file. In
order to avoid imbalance, the blade should be
resharpened by an authorized service workshop.
8.2.3 Care and adjustment of the cables
Oil the cables at regular intervals and check that they
move easily.
8.2.4 Inspecting the V-belt
To inspect the V-belt you must remove the V-belt
cover (Fig. 6/Item D).
8.2.5 Repairs
After any repair or maintenance work, check that all
safety-related parts are in place and in proper
working order.
All parts which may cause injury must be kept where
they are inaccessible to children or others.
Important: In accordance with product liability
legislation we are not liable for any damages caused
by improper repairs or the use of spare parts that are
not original spare parts or parts approved by us. In
