Have your ACTIVE dealer service your lawn mower at

mower is in good working order at the start of the next
season.
CAUTION !
Remember to switch off the motor and disconnect
the start-up spark plug connector when performing
maintenance.
Check - Removing and sharpening the blade
a - Stop the motor. Disconnect the spark plug cable to avoid
any sudden and unwanted motor start-ups.
Fold the mower on the left side or on the opposite side to
b -
the spark plug to avoid clogging problems.
c -
Check: carefully examine the degree of sharpening and
wear on the blade, especially near folds.
Since sand or other material can cause wear, frequently
d -
check the blade. If abnormalities are detected, replace
the blade.
CAUTION ! Excessive blade wear can cause the
formation of deep cracks and the detachment of
some of its pieces, causing serious danger to the
operator and any persons present in the work area.
e - Check: tightly grip one end of the blade (wear gloves to
prevent cutting), unscrew the bolt (7), remove the washer
(8) and then the blade (9).
f - Sharpening: sharpen the blade if the cutters are
deteriorated and the blade is in good condition. Use a
grindstone for sharpening and check that the blade is
still balanced after this operation. Excessive vibrations
will be caused if it is not balanced. Be careful not to cut
yourself. Contact an ACTIVE service centre with any
questions.

Assemble the blade (9) centring it on the support. Position
the washer (8) and tighten the bolt (7).

Make sure that original ACTIVE spare parts are used for
i -
repairs. This will allow you to maintain the quality of your
lawn mower at the same level as when you bought it.
Transporter cable adjustment
Adjust the transporter engagement cable at first use. In any
case, this must be adjusted only in the event that, with the
motor running, upon transporter handle operation the wheels
fail to provide a prompt response and it seems that the clutch
is slipping.
Adjustment is carried out by loosening the 2 nuts (11), turning
the upper nut twice in a counter-clockwise direction, and
then re-tightening it with the counter-nut. This operation can
be repeated if it does not prove effective.
CAUTION !
Excessive pressure on the cable may result in
transmission breakage.
After regulation, always check that the rear wheels rotate
freely with the motor off and when pulling back the machine
without operating the transporter handle.
Transmission oil
Check transmission oil via the drain plug (Mod.5500) and
change every 500 working hours.
