Maintenance And Care Routine Maintenance ! IMPORTANT - Routine and accurate maintenance is essential for maintaining original machine safety and performance levels. Always stop the engine and unplug the spark plug before doing any repairs or maintenance. Only use original spare parts: The use of non-original and/or incorrectly fitted parts will jeopardize the safety of the machine, may cause accidents or personal injuries for which the Manufacturer is under no circumstance liable or responsible. 1.
Maintenance & Care Checking Oil Level 1. Remove the oil filler cap and wipe the dipstick clean. 2. Refit the dipstick without screwing it down. 3.Remove the dipstick and check the oil level. It should be up to the upper mark on the dipstick. DO NOT overfill. The oil level should not be above the upper mark on the dipstick. 4. If the oil level is too low, add SAE 30 engine oil part number ‘600MLSAE30OIL’ or 15W40 engine oil, to the upper mark on the dipstick (as shown below).
Maintenance And Care The Spark Plug STEP 1 STEP 6 You MUST allow the engine to cool down before carrying out any maintenance. The spark plug gap should be 0.70mm to 0.80mm. Check the gap by using a feeler gauge. Adjust as necessary by carefully bending the side electrode to achieve the correct gap. STEP 2 Always replace with the same model spark plug as fitted. 00.28” to 0.031” 0.70mm to 0.80mm STEP 3 STEP 7 To check spark plug, remove spark plug cap.
Maintenance & Care Air Filter ! CAUTION - A dirty air filter will restrict the air flow to the carburetor, which will reduce engine efficiency. When using the lawnmower in very dusty areas you must clean or replace the air filter more often. STEP 3 Clean the filter by blowing air through it using an air gun not exceeding 30psi. STEP 4 Never operate the machine without the air filter being fitted it can cause damage to the engine which is not covered by warranty. STEP 1 Also clean the foam pre-filter.
Maintenance & Care Blade Maintenance Check the blade, in order to obtain a good cut, the blade should always be sharp and well balanced. At regular intervals, check the tightness of all nuts, bolts and screws. If the blade hits an obstacle check for damage and if the machine vibrates badly stop the lawnmower and take it to a service dealer. It is best if all interventions on the blade are done at a specialised centre that has the special tools and equipment.
Maintenance & Care Cleaning ! CAUTION - DO NOT use a hose pipe or pressure washer to clean the engine. Water can damage the engine or contaminate the fuel system. • Wipe the deck with a dry cloth. • You can hose under deck by tilting the mower. Make sure you tilt the machine so that the air filter is facing up. NOTE Engine must be switched off and plug lead disconnected. • You must remove grass and mud from inside the deck to prevent it from drying.
Maintenance & Care 8. Remove the spark plug and pour 1 teaspoon of fresh engine oil down the cylinder bore. Cover the spark plug hole with a lint free clean cloth, ensuring no dirt or debris falls into the cylinder chamber and gently pull the recoil starter handle to coat the cylinder bore with the fresh oil. 9. Refit the spark plug. 10. Once all work above is carried out store the machine in a clean, cool and dry place away from sources of ignition and varying changes in temperature.

Tips For Mowing General Tips What Time Should I Mow? • Maintain a constant cutting height of 3-5cm. Do not shorten the grass to less than half its original height. Early Morning (6am-8am) Grass could be wet and your lawnmower could leave tracks. • Under certain conditions, such as very tall grass, it may be necessary to raise the height of cut to reduce pushing effort, prevent overloading of the motor and leaving clumps of grass clippings.
