If the flap falls during mowing, the debris bag (16) is
full and should be emptied.
To ensure that the filling level indicator works prop
-
erly, the holes under the flap must be kept clean and
permeable.
As soon as grass clippings start to trail the lawn mow-
er, it is time to empty the grass basket.

WARNING
Before taking off the grass basket, switch off the
engine and wait until the blade has come to a stop.
To take off the grass basket (16), use one hand to
lift up the chute flap (15) and the other to grab onto
the basket handle (Fig. 16). Remove the basket. For
safety reasons, the chute flap (15) automatically falls
down after removing the grass basket and closes off
the rear chute opening.
If any grass remains in the opening, it will be easier to
restart the engine if you pull the mower back approx.
1 meter. Do not use your hands or feet to remove
clippings in or on the mower housing, but instead use
suitable tools such as a brush or a hand broom.
In order to ensure that the majority of grass clippings
are picked up, the inside of both the grass basket (16)
and especially the air grill must be cleaned after each
use. Reattach the grass basket (16) only when the
engine is switched off and the blade is stopped. Using
one hand, lift up the chute flap (15), while grabbing
onto the basket handle with the other. Hang in the
basket from the top. Fig. 9
After mowing
• Allow the engine to cool before you put the lawn
mower in an enclosed area.
Remove grass, foliage, grease and oil before
storing the mower. Do not place any objects on top
of the mower.
• Check all the screws and nuts once more before
you start to use the lawn mower again. Tighten any
loose screws.
• Also be sure to empty the grass basket (16).
• Pull the spark plug boot to prevent unauthorized use.
• Ensure that you do not park the mower next to any
source of danger. Petrol fumes can lead to explosions.
• Only original parts or parts approved by the
manufacturer may be used for repairs (see address
on the warranty certificate).
• If the lawn mower is not going to be used for an
extended period, empty the petrol tank using a
petrol suction pump.
• Oil and maintain the machine.
Deposits not only make it more difficult to start the
mower; they decrease the quality of the cut and make
it harder for the machine to bag the grass. Always
mow along inclines (not up and down). Slightly turning
the front wheels up the hill while mowing will prevent
the mower from sliding out of the straight line. Select
the cutting height according to the length of the
grass. If the lawn has grown quite a bit, mow over it
several times so that no more than 4 cm of grass are
cut at one time. Switch off the engine before doing
any checks on the blade. Keep in mind that the blade
continues to rotate for a few seconds after the engine
has been switched off. Never attempt to manually
stop the blade.
Regularly check to see if the blade is securely
attached, is in good condition and is sharp. If the
contrary is the case, sharpen the blade or replace it. In
the event that the blade strikes an object,immediately
switch off the lawn mower and wait for the blade to
come to a complete stop. Then inspect the condition
of the blade and the blade mount. Replace any parts
that are damaged.
Tips for proper mowing:
• Pay attention to ensure that you do not run into or
over anything that could damage the mower. The
lawn mower could be damaged and/or the machine
could inflict bodily injury.
• A hot engine, exhaust or drive unit can burn the
skin if touched. Thus, do not touch these parts
unless the mower has been switched off for a while
and you know that they have cooled down!
• Use extra caution when mowing on inclines and
steep grades.
•
Insufficient daylight or even a sufficient level of
artificial light is one reason not to mow.
• Check the mower, the blade and other parts if
they have struck a foreign object or if the machine
vibrates more than usual.
• Do not make any adjustments or repairs until the
engine has been switched off. Pull the plug boot.
• Pay special attention if you are mowing directly
next to a street or are close by one (traffic). Always
keep the grass chute pointed away from the street.
• Avoid mowing in places where the wheels have
trouble gripping or mowing is unsafe in any other
way. Before you back up, ensure that nobody is
standing behind you (especially little children, who
are more difficult to see).
• When mowing over thick, high grass, select the
highest cutting level and mow at a slower speed.
Before you remove any grass or blockages of any
kind, switch off the engine and pull the plug boot.
• Never remove any safety-related parts.
•
Never fill the engine with petrol when it is hot or is
running.
Emptying the grass basket
The debris bag (16) is equipped with a filling level in
-
dicator (Fig. 16). This will be opened by the air current
produced by the mower.
