6. MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Before working on the cutting system of the machine, switch off the
engine and remove the spark plug’s cap.
a. Cleaning the mower
-Cut grass is damp. Regular cleaning after each use will ensure better
functioning of the mower and reduce the risk of corrosion or seizure.
-Having finished mowing, allow the engine to cool then remove
accumulated grass clippings from and around the engine with a brush.
-Clean the grass collection bag annually with a brush or gentle spray of
water.
-Disconnect the spark plug’s cap and tilt the mower on its side with the air
filter and carburettor uppermost.
-Remove any remaining cut grass from the cutting system with a scraper
and a brush.
-Reposition the mower onto its four wheels.
-Do not use a pressure washer or hot water to clean the mower. Be careful
to avoid soaking parts such as the engine, air cleaner, wheel bearings and
metal fastenings. Dry off the machine before storing by leaving it running
for a few minutes on a flat, clear surface to prevent corrosion or seizure.
b. Blade maintenance
WARNING: Wear gloves, turn off the engine and remove the spark
plug before proceeding.
The blade is made of hardened steel. To get a clean job, sharpen the
blade frequently, about every 25 hours of use. Make sure the blade is
always well balanced.
Insert a small iron pin (2 or 3 mm in diameter) into the hole in the middle
of the blade: it must remain horizontal. If the blade does not stay
horizontal, balance it by sharpening it further on the side where it is
leaning.
WARNING: Use only original spare parts. Poor quality replacement parts
can cause serious damage to your mower and affect your safety.

18
To remove the blade, loosen the screw, check the blade bracket, and
replace all parts if they are worn or damaged.
When reassembling the blade, make sure that the cutting edges are in the
same direction as the direction of rotation of the motor. The tightening
torque of the blade screw should be 3.7 kg * m / s 2 (37 Nm) and can be
checked with a torque wrench.
c. Storing the mower
Store your mower in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from flames, sparks
or heat sources. If the storage area is accessible to children, immobilise
the machine by disconnecting the spark plug’s cap. Storing the mower
beneath a tarpaulin or similar cover is not recommended as it may cause
a build‐up of condensation resulting in corrosion of the mower.
Extended shutdown and winter storage
Thoroughly clean the mower. Ideally, run the engine outdoors until the fuel
tank is empty. Alternatively, empty any remaining fuel using a fuel suction
pump.
Dispose of discarded fuel safely and responsibly, remembering that petrol
vapours can cause explosion or fire. Run the engine until any remaining
fuel is consumed. Allow the engine to cool. Check the condition and
cleanliness of the air cleaner. Remove the spark plug from the engine and
pour a tablespoon of engine oil into the cylinder. Gently pull the starter
rope several times to turn over the engine, distributing the oil to protect the
cylinder over winter. Replace and tighten the spark plug.
At the start of the new season
Remove the spark plug and gently clean off any carbon deposits from the
tip with a small copper wire brush, finishing off with petrol. Allow the spark
plug to dry. Pull the starter rope several times to expel excess oil from the
cylinder. Replace and tighten the spark plug. Fill the fuel tank with
unleaded petrol. Turn over the engine until it starts.

19
Before transporting the mower
Thoroughly clean the mower. Empty the fuel tank using a suction pump.
Dispose of discarded fuel safely and responsibly, remembering that petrol
vapours can cause explosion or fire. Run the engine until any remaining
fuel is consumed.
Allow the engine to cool. Remove the grass collection bag. Loosen the
quick release and fold down the top section of the handles taking care not
to bend the cables.
To avoid scratching the mower, insert corrugated cardboard or similar
padding between the upper and lower handlebars and the engine.
Due to the mower’s weight, use ramps or seek assistance when lifting or
loading the mower.
d. Mower maintenance
Cutting system
Before and after each mowing session, check that the blade, its
attachment bolts and drive shaft are not damaged or excessively worn.
Never try to straighten a bent blade. Replace a damaged, worn or bent
blade as soon as possible. Use only genuine parts. Excessive vibration
when mowing is a good indication of a problem with the cutting system.
WARNING: Vibration from a bent or damaged blade can cause costly
damage to the mower. Working with an excessively worn blade wastes
fuel and can lead to injury if the blade becomes detached from the
machine.
Warning: there is a danger about moving blade. Always handle the blade
when it is totally stopped. Wear protective gloves.
Sharpening the blade
For best mowing results, have the edges sharpened and the blade
balanced at least once a year by a specialist service dealer or agent.
Removing the blade
Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent possible injury when
handling the blade. Disconnect the spark plug cap and tilt the mower on
its side with air filter and carburettor side uppermost.
Holding the blade firmly in one hand, use a spanner or socket to loosen
the blade screw.
Mounting the blade
Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent possible injury when
handling the blade. Disconnect the spark plug cap and tilt the mower on
its side with air filter and carburettor side uppermost.
Check that all components (the blade, key, blade holder, screws and
washers).are present, clean and in good condition.

20
Position the blade on its support with the cooling fins facing the engine.
Check the correct alignment and matching of pads with the blade. The
blade must be positioned precisely on its stand.
Tighten the screws connecting all of the components. Make a final visual
check that all parts are present and aligned before tightening the fixing
bolt very firmly with a wrench while holding the blade firmly in one hand
(NB wear suitable gloves).
Spark plug
Check the spark plug initially after the first five hours of mower use.
Thereafter, maintenance of the spark plug should take place every 25
hours.
Remove the spark plug cap using a rotary motion and then remove the
spark plug with the wrench provided.
Clean off any carbon deposits using a copper brush and check the
electrode gap with a feeler gauge.
Replace and retighten the serviced spark plug and replace the cap.
If the spark plug is worn or damaged, replace with a new spark plug of the
same or suitable type for the engine.
Air Filter
An air filter in poor condition will reduce the performance and life of the
engine while making it harder to start. Regular checks are therefore
essential, especially when using the mower in dusty conditions. Check
and clean the air filter every 25 hours of use or more often if the engine is
used in a dusty environment.
Remove the air box lid and carefully remove the foam filter cartridge.
Clean the cartridge in a small bowl of warm water containing a few drops
of washing up liquid until it is perfectly clean and free from all traces of
grease and dust. Rinse the filter cartridge in clean water and then
squeeze gently to remove most of the water. Let it air dry until it is
completely dry.
WARNING: Never clean the foam cartridge in petrol, white spirit or other
solvents. These products will degrade the filter cartridge.
Clean the cover and inside of the air box with a clean lint ‐free cloth.
Apply a uniform layer of oil to the outside of the cartridge filter with a brush
(you can use clean engine oil for this). Insert the filter cartridge into its
housing and replace the air box lid, ensuring that each component is in
place and properly installed. If the filter cartridge is damaged or is very
dirty, replace it using a genuine part.
WARNING: Do not twist the cartridge to clean foam, as you could damage
it. This mower is equipped with a dual filtration system comprising a foam
pre‐filter and a cartridge filter paper.
The maintenance of a foam pre ‐filter is identical to that of a foam
cartridge filter, as described above. The cartridge filter paper should be
