read the instructions on seed boxes for mowing height for
the growing conditions in the work area.
Keep in mind that most grass is made up of a stem and one
or more leaves. If leaves are fully cut, the lawn is damaged
and growth is more difficult.
The following indications generally apply:
– cutting too low tears and uproots the grass, giving it a
"spotted" appearance;
– in the summer, cutting must be higher to prevent the
ground from drying;
– do not cut wet grass; this could reduce cutting means ef-
ficiency due to sticky grass and tear the lawn.
– for particularly high grass, initially mow at the maximum
height allowed by the machine then mow again after two
or three days.
When work is finished
3.4
When work has been completed, release the brake lever (1)
and disconnect the spark plug cap (2).
• Electric key ignition models
Remove the ignition key (3).
• Electric push-button ignition models
Press the tab (5) and remove the consent key (4).
WAIT UNTIL THE CUTTING MEANS STOPS before pro-
ceeding any further.
4. ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Store the lawnmower in a dry place.
IMPORTANT
Routine and accurate maintenance, at least
once a year, is essential in maintaining original machine safe-
ty and performance levels.
Adjustments or maintenance operations must only be per-
formed with the engine switched off and the spark plug ca-
ble disconnected.
1) Wear strong protective gloves before cleaning, main-
taining or adjusting the machine.
2) Accurately wash the machine with water after cutting;
remove grass debris and mud accumulated in the chas-
sis to prevent it from drying and causing problems the
next time the lawnmower is used.
3) Paint on internal chassis parts may start to flake over
time due to the abrasive action of cut grass; if this hap-
pens, promptly touch-up with rust-proof paint to prevent
rusting that could corrode the metal.
4) If accessing the lower part is necessary, only tilt the ma-
chine on the side indicated in the engine manual, follow-
ing the relevant instructions, making sure that the ma-
chine is perfectly stable before performing any interven-
tions. On side discharge models, remove the discharge
chute (if installed – see 3.1.d).
5) Do not drip petrol onto the plastic parts of the engine or
the machine to prevent damaging them and remove all
traces of spilled petrol immediately. The warranty does
not cover damage to plastic parts caused by petrol.

4.1 Cutting means maintenance
All interventions on the cutting means must be done at a
specialised Centre that has the most appropriate tools and
equipment.
Only cutting means bearing the code indicated in the table
on page ix must be used on this machine.
Given product evolution, the above mentioned cutting
means may be replaced in time with others having similar
interchangeable and operating safety features.
Adjusting the converter cable (if fitted)
4.2
This adjustment is necessary when the lever (1) tends not
to remain in the «
With the lever (1) in the « » position, turn the cable ad-
juster (2) in the direction indicated by the arrow as needed
to ensure the lever remains in position.
IMPORTANT
The adjustment must be made when the
engine is off.
4.3 Battery recharging (where applicable)
• Electric key ignition models
To recharge a flat battery, connect it to the battery
charger (1) following the instructions in the battery main-
tenance manual.
Do not connect the battery charger directly to the engine
terminal. It is not possible to ignite the engine using the
battery charger as a power source, as it may get dam-
aged.
If you do not use the lawnmower for a long period of
time, disconnect the battery from the engine wiring,
making sure the charge level is good.
• Electric push-button ignition models
Follow all the instructions provided in the engine
Instruction Manual.
Cleaning the interior
4.4
To clean the internal parts of the lawnmower:
– connect a water hose to its pipe fitting (1);
– lower the cutting height as far as possible;
– always stand behind the lawnmower handle;
– start the engine.
5. ATTACHMENTS
WARNING!
to fit any other attachment other than those included
in the following list, as they have been exclusively de-
signed for the model and type of machine you are using.
