7. Using the petrol lawn mower
Important.
The engine is supplied without oil and petrol.
Therefore, be sure to add oil and petrol before
starting the engine.
In order to avoid any unintentional start-ups of the
lawn mower, it comes equipped with an engine brake
(Fig. 5a/Item 1) which must be pulled back before the
engine can be started. When the engine start/stop
lever is released it must return to its initial position, at
which point the engine automatically switches off.
Move the speed lever (Fig. 6) to position
start/stop lever (Fig. 5b) and vigorously pull on the
starter cable. Move the throttle lever into the "Hare"
position.
Before you start mowing, you should run through this
process several times in order to ensure that the
machine is working properly. Whenever you need to
perform any kind of adjustment and/or repair work on
your lawn mower, wait until the blade has come to a
complete stop. Always switch off the engine before
carrying out any adjustments, maintenance or repairs.
Note:
1. Engine brake (Fig. 5a/Item 1): Use the engine
start/stop lever to switch off the engine. When
you release the engine start/stop lever, the
engine and blade will automatically stop. To mow,
hold the lever in the working position (Fig. 5b).
Before you start to mow, check the start/stop
lever several times to be sure that it is working
properly. Ensure that the tension cable can be
smoothly operated (i.e. is not catching or kinking
in any way).
2. Warning: The blade begins to rotate as soon as
the engine is started.
Important: Before you start the engine, move the
engine brake several times to be sure that the
stop cable is properly working.
Note: The engine is factory set to a speed that is
optimal for cutting and blowing grass into the
basket and is designed to provide many years of
use.
3. Check the oil level.
4. Use a funnel and measuring vessel to fill the tank
with petrol. Make sure that the petrol is clean.
Warning: Never use more than one safety petrol can.
Do not smoke when refueling. Switch off the engine
before refueling and allow the engine to cool down for
a few minutes.
5. Ensure that the ignition cable is connected to the
spark plug.

6. Stand behind the mower. Place one hand on the
engine start/stop lever. Place the other hand on
the starter handle.
7. Start the engine using the reversing starter (Fig.
1/Item 7). To do this pull the handle out approx.
10 – 15 cm (until you feel a resistance) and then
start the engine with a sharp pull. If the engine
does not start, pull the handle again.
Important. Never allow the cable to snap back.
Important: In cold weather, it may be necessary
to repeat the starting process several times.
