Replacing The Power Cable; Cleaning, Maintenance And Ordering Of Spare Parts; Carbon Brushes - EINHELL BG-EM 1030 Mode D'emploi D'origine

As soon as you see mown grass on the lawn
whilst you are mowing, the grass bag will need
emptying.
Important!
Before you remove the grass bag switch off the
motor and wait until the cutting tool reaches a
standstill.
To remove the grass bag, raise the discharge fl ap
with one hand and remove the grass bag using its
handle with your other hand. To maintain safety,
the discharge fl ap will close when you remove the
grass back to seal the rear discharge opening. If
any grass residues are caught in the opening, it is
a good idea to pull the mower backwards around
1 m to make it easier to start the motor. Do not
remove grass cuttings in the mower casing or on
the cutter by hand or with your feet. Instead use
suitable tools such as a brush or broom. To ensu-
re that it can collect the grass correctly the grass
bag and in particular the net must be cleaned
from the inside after use. Only attach the grass
bag after switching off the motor and the cutting
tool has reached a standstill. Raise the discharge
fl ap with one hand and, holding the grass bag by
its handle in your other hand, attach it from the
top.

8. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Always pull out the mains power plug before star-
ting any cleaning work.
8.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it with compressed air at low
pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could at-
tack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensu-
re that no water can seep into the device. The
ingress of water into an electric tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.

8.2 Carbon brushes

In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon
brushes checked only by a qualifi ed electrician.
Important! The carbon brushes should not be rep
laced by anyone but a qualifi ed electrician.
8.3 Maintenance
•
Worn out or damaged blades, blade mounts,
and bolts should be replaced as a set by an
authorized professional in order to keep the
equipment in balance.
•
Do not clean the lawn mower with running
water, particularly with high-pressure water.
Ensure that all mounting components (i.e.
screws, bolts, nuts etc.) are always tightened
so that the equipment can be safely operated
at all times.
•
Frequently check the grass catch assembly
for signs of wear.
•
Replace excessively worn or damaged parts
immediately.
•
Store your lawn mower in a dry room.
•
In order to ensure that you enjoy the equip-
ment for many years to come, all screwed
parts, as well as the wheels and axles, should
be cleaned and lubricated.
•
Keeping your lawn mower in good condition
not only ensures a long lifespan and high per-
formance, but also enables the equipment to
thoroughly cut your grass with minimal effort.
For best results, clean the lawn mower with a
