7.4 Service

Residual dirt and grass can be
most easily removed immediately
after mowing. Place the petrol

Hattrick lawn mower on its side
opposite the tank and clean it
with a brush or rag.

7.5 Storage

(Fig. A)

Let the engine cool down be-
fore storing the petrol Hattrick
lawn mower in a closed room.

Never store the petrol Hattrick
lawn mower with fuel in the
tank where petrol vapour could
come into contact with an
open flame or could be ignited.

Always store your petrol Hattrick
lawn mower in a closed dry place.

To save space the handle can
be folded down. Loosen the lower
locking handles (2) and pull the
bars sideways out of the mount.
Loosen plastic wing nut (1) at the
joint. Fold guide handle down in
a Z-shape.

When folding down the
bars make sure that the

gas and brake bowden cables
are not jammed or damaged.

Wintering

If the engine is shut down for
more than 30 days, firstly empty
the tank. Afterwards, let the
engine run until it runs out of
petrol.

Unscrew the spark plug and
pour 1 tablespoon of motor oil
into the cylinder. Turn the motor
by slowly pulling on the starter
handle / cord so that the oil is
distributed. Screw in the spark
plug again.

After having thoroughly removed
dirt and remaining grass we re-
commend you to clean the petrol
Hattrick lawn mower with mainte-
nance spray.
