General Cleaning and
Maintenance Work
Do not hose down the lawn-
mower with water.
•
Always keep the equipment clean. To
clean, use a brush or cloth but no de-
tergent or solvent.
•
After mowing, use a piece of wood
or plastic to remove adherent plant
remains from the wheels, ventilation
holes, ejection hole and blade area.
Do not use hard or pointed objects, as
these may damage the blade.
•
Oil the wheels from time to time.
•
Before each use, check the lawnmower
for obvious defects such as loose, worn
or damaged parts. Check that all nuts,
bolts and screws are sitting firmly.

Changing the Blade
If the blade is blunt, it can be sharpened
by a specialist workshop. If the blade is
damaged or showing signs of imbalance,
it must be replaced (see chapter on "Spare
Parts").
1. Switch off the equipment, disconnect
the plug and wait until the blade stops.
2. Turn the equipment over.
3. Use sturdy gloves and hold the blade
firmly (19). Turn the blade screw (18)
anticlockwise off of the motor spindle
(20) using a screwdriver (AF 13 mm).
4. Install the new blade in the reverse or-
der. Ensure that the blade is positioned
correctly and the screw tightened
firmly.
