See the enclosed operating instruc-
tions of the motor manufacturer.
Servicing the motor
In order to ensure a trouble-free
running of the motor, the lawn
mower should be serviced by an
authorised distributorship work-
shop every 2 - 3 years (re-set
valves etc.)
Maintenance of the
wheel tractor drive
Figure 12
(except 40 B and 40 B OHC)
The gear runs maintenance- and
service-free in an enclosed oil
sump. The wheel tractor drive can
be adjusted in case of late engage-
ment of the clutch or slipping clutch.
To effect such an adjustment, the
locknut (Fig. 12, Pos. 1) is slack-
ened by one complete turn and
the locknut (Fig. 12, Pos. 2) is
adjusted whilst holding the clutch
cable eyelet bolt (Fig. 12, Pos. 3).
This procedure should be repeated
as often as necessary until the
clutch no longer slips.

7. Remedies for malfunctioning

General
Malfunctioning mostly only occurs
when the machine is not treated
properly, maintained or serviced.
The following table includes the
most likely malfunctions to occur
and their remedying.
In cases of further disruptions,
the assistance of the nearest Brill
Service Station should be ob-
tained.

Care
Contaminating dirt and grass cut-
tings residue are most easily re-
moved immediately after mowing.
The sparking plug connector should
be detached and the machined
tipped over to the side opposite
the sparking plug and/over car-
burettor side. The machine can
then be cleaned by brush and
wiper cloth.
The gasoline driven mower
A
should not be cleaned
with running water and, in par-
ticular not with a water pressure
jet cleaner.
Storage
Caution ! The motor should
A
be allowed to cool down
before storing the machine in en-
closed spaces.
The gasoline driven mower should
never be stored with motor spirit
in the fuel tank within a room,
in which motor spirit fumes might
come into contact with naked
flames or might catch fire.
The machine should be stored in
an enclosed space. To save space,
the handlebar frame can be folded
up. For this purpose, the lower
joint-tensioning grip (Fig. 1, Pos. 2)
Caution ! Repairs that re-
A
quire technical knowledge
should only be carried out by an
authorised specialist dealer.
Caution ! For safety reasons,
A
only original spare parts
of the manufacturer are to be used
or those approved by the manu-
facturer.
should be slackened and the bars
drawn out of the latches sideways.
The transom tightening grip ( Fig. 1,
Pos. 1) should be slackened at the
folding point and the upper part
of the transom folded down to the
rear.
Caution ! When folding up,
A
care should be taken to
ensure that the Bowden cables are
not buckled.
Storage hints
(over the Winter months)
In cases of motors which are not
used for more than 30 days, first
the fuel tank should be emptied
and any residual motor spirit
soaked up with a non-fluffy cloth.
The motor should then be started
and run until it dies for lack of fuel.
The sparking plug should be un-
screwed and removed. 1 table-
spoon of motor oil should be trick-
led into the cylinder. The motor
should then be turned by slowly
pulling on the starter handle in
order to distribute the motor oil.
The sparking plug can then be
replaced.
After dirt and grass cuttings residue
has been thoroughly removed,
we recommend cleaning the lawn
mower with a preservative agent.
