Mac allister 295442024/MCA, Original Instructions Manual

Maintenance and storage

 1)   Keep all nuts and screws tight to be sure the equipment is in safe working condition. 

Routine maintenance is essential for safety and for maintaining a high performance level.

 2)   Do not store the lawnmower with fuel in the tank in an area where fuel vapours could 

reach an open flame, a spark or a strong heat source.

 3)  Allow the engine to cool before storing the lawnmower in any enclosure.

 4)   To  reduce  fire  hazards,  keep  the  engine,  silencer,  battery  compartment  and  petrol 

storage area free of grass, leaves, or excessive grease. Never leave containers with cut 

grass inside a storage area.

 5)  Check the rear discharge guard and grass-catcher frequently for wear or deterioration.

 6)   If the fuel tank has to be emptied, this should be done outdoors once the engine has 

cooled down.

 7)  Wear work gloves for disassembling and reassembling blades.

 8)  Keep the blade balanced during sharpening. All work on the blade (disassembly, 

sharpening, balancing, reassembly and/or replacing) are demanding jobs that require 

special skill as well as special tools. For safety reasons, these jobs are best carried out at 

a specialized centre.

 9)   For safety reasons, never use the machine when it has worn or damaged parts. Parts 

must be replaced and not repaired. Use original spare parts. Parts that are not of the same 

quality can damage the equipment and impair your safety.

 10)  If the machine is not going to be used for 28 days or more please drain all fuel from the 

machine. Stale fuel can cause damage to the carburettor.

Transportation and handling

 1)  Whenever the machine is to be handled, lifted, transported or tilted you must:

    –  wear sturdy work gloves;

    –   grasp the machine at the points that offer a safe grip, taking account of the weight and 

its distribution;

   –  use an appropriate number of people for the weight of the machine and the 

characteristics of the vehicle or the place where it must be placed or collected.

 2)  During transport, fasten the machine securely with cables or chains.
