Before Mowing - MIGROS DO IT+GARDEN BM 42 Mode D'emploi

Note:
1. Engine brake (Fig. 10): Use the lever to
stop the engine. When you release the lever the
engine and the blade stop automatically (Fig.
10/Pos. A). To mow, hold the lever in the working
position. 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. Caution: The blade begins to rotate as soon as
the engine is started.
Important:
Before you start the engine, move the motor
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. Fill the tank with approx. 0.8 liters of petrol
whenever empty, using a funnel and measuring
jug to do so. Ensure that the petrol is free of any
contaminants.
Note: Use only unleaded petrol as fuel.
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 3). To do this pull the handle 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.

6.1 Before mowing

Important information
1. Make sure that you are properly dressed when
mowing. Wear sturdy, non-slip footwear; do not
wear sandals or tennis shoes.
2. Inspect the blade. A blade that is bent or
damaged in any other way must be immediately
exchanged for a genuine Migros replacement
blade.
3. Do not fill the fuel tank indoors, but rather out
in the open. Use a filling funnel and a measuring
jug. Wipe off any spilled petrol.
4. Read and follow in the instructions in the
operating manual as well as the information
regarding the engine and accessory equipment.
Store the manual in a place where it can be
readily accessed by other users of the machine.
5. Exhaust gas is dangerous. Only start the engine
out in the open.
6. Make sure that all the guards are fitted and
that they are in good working order.
