Cleaning the lawnmower (Fig. 1)
Cleaning with a garden hose is only recommended at low
pressure. A high-pressure cleaner is not suitable for cleaning
the lawnmower.
Unhook the grass collection basket (16) and brush it out with
a hand brush. You can also roughly clean the housing of the
lawnmower with the sweeper. For larger soiling, you can wipe
the lawnmower with a damp cloth.
NOTE
Before tilting the lawnmower, empty the fuel tank fully using
a fuel extraction pump (not included in the scope of deliv-
ery).
Do not tilt the lawnmower beyond 90 degrees.
1. It is best to tilt the lawnmower backwards. Make sure that
the spark plug (12a) is pointing upwards. If the spark
plug (12a) points downwards, oil can leak out and cause
major damage to the engine and carburettor.
2. Alternatively, you can tilt the product on its side, but you
must make sure that the air filter cover (9) is on the upper
side.
3. Clean the underside of the lawnmower with a spatula
and hand brush. The spatula helps to remove coarse and
larger plant debris from the area of the blade (19).
Cleaning the underbody is easier and more thorough im-
mediately after use. Then dirt and plant residues are still
fresh and can be loosened more easily.
4. If necessary and if the dirt is difficult to remove, you can
also use a special cleaner. Do not use aggressive clean-
ing products such as cold cleaners or white spirit.
5. Check that the grass ejection is clear of grass residues
and remove these if necessary.
