Before removing the grass box: Turn off the engine and wait
for the blade to stop. Carefully refit the grass box after emp-
tying.
z
Never drive over gravel with the engine running - stones can
be thrown by contact with the blade!
z
Where possible, do not mow in wet grass. If the mower ap-
pears to have blocked, turn off the engine, remove the spark
plug lead and wait until the blade comes to a standstill if, for
example:
–
to free a blockage in the ejection channel
–
to examine or clean the mower
–
if a foreign body is encountered. Check whether mower
deck or blade have been damaged. Then correct or repair
the damage before recommencing mowing.
–
if the mower strongly vibrates from imbalance (then switch
off immediately and look for the cause).
z
NOTE: Danger when grass box equipment is inappropriately
handled.
z
If the mower is a self-propelled version then release the drive
clutch bail before you switch on the engine. Do not touch en-
gine or exhaust during or shortly after operation. Hot parts can
lead to burns or provoke frightened movements which may
lead to injuries.
z
Turn the engine off if you the leave the lawn mower unatten-
ded and before you refuel.
After working
z
The throttle should be closed before switching off the engine.
If the engine is equipped with a petrol shut-off valve then this
be closed after mowing has been completed.
z
Do not leave the mower in closed areas after switching off - al-
low it to cool off in the open air before storing away.
z
Never keep the machine with petrol in the tank within a buil-
ding in which gasoline vapours may possibly come into con-
tact with naked flames or sparks. Before leaving the mower
remove the spark plug lead and - if fitted - the starting key.
z
Lifting and carrying the mower for transport:
z
Never attempt to lift the mower with the engine running - nor
with a hot engine - always remove the spark plug lead before
lifting or carrying.
z
When folding the mower handlebars, detach starter rope and
make certain that the control cables are not snagged or stret-
ched when folding or unfolding.
z
Always carry out the engine oil change with the fuel tank em-
pty and filler cap fitted. The engine should be warmed up prior
to draining the oil to ensure all sludge deposits are drained
away with the oil.
Maintenance
z
Regularly examine all fixing bolts and nuts, particularly those
of the cutter bar, for tightness.
z
Maintenance and cleaning of the equipment as well as remo-
ving the protection device may only be performed with the en-
gine stopped and the spark plug lead and - if available - the
starting key, removed.
z
Note information on the chassis before cleaning and oil
change!
z
Make certain that all nuts, pins and screws are firmly tightened
and that the unit is in a safe operating condition.
z
In order to avoid the risk of fire keep the engine, exhaust, bat-
tery box and the area around the fuel tank free of grass, leaves
or oil.
z
If the equipment must be tilted for maintenance work then the
fuel must be completely drained from the tank beforehand.
z
Clean the equipment after each use with a hand-brush - not
with water and do not hose down with a high pressure hose in
particular. Make certain to keep the engine cooling fins and
engine cooling air intake clean and free from debris.
z
Do not place the equipment in damp areas, near naked flames
or where a spark might ignite petrol vapour.
z
If the fuel tank is to be emptied then this should be done out-
doors. Make sure that no fuel is spilled.
z
For safety reasons replace worn out or damaged parts.
z
NOTE! Always have blades replaced or sharpened by a
WOLF Service Centre, as a blade balance test must be per-
formed in accordance with safety regulations and the blade re-
taining bolt must be tightened to a specified torque.
z
Wear suitable work gloves when carrying out the above work,
especially when handling the blade.
