7-5 CONNECTION FOR AUTO MOVE
For PLM4631N2
Grip the self-drive control handle, the lawn mower will
move forward automatically with about 3.6 km/h (Fig. 30),
release the self-drive handle, the lawn mower will stop
move.
For PLM4632N, PLM5130N
The mower is equipped with a speed adjusting system
which can adjust 3 speeds from 3.0 km/h to 4.5 km/h.
Position “ ”: the slowest position; Position “ ”: the
fastest position. (Fig. 31)
The step as below:
1. Release the self-drive control handle until the lawn
mower does not go forward.
2. Adjust the appropriate speed which you want.
(Fig. 31)
3. Grasp the self-drive control handle to go on mowing.
(Fig. 30)
CAUTION: Your mower is designed to cut normal
residential grass of a height no more than 250 mm.
Do not attempt to mow through unusually tall dry or wet
grass (e.g., pasture) or piles of dry leaves. Debris may
build up on the mower deck or contact the engine exhaust
presenting a potential fire hazard.
7-6 FOR THE BEST RESULTS WHEN
MOWING
Clear lawn of debris. Be sure that the lawn is clear of
stones, sticks, wire or other foreign objects which could be
accidentally thrown out by the mower in any direction and
cause serious personal injury to the operator and others
as well as damage to property and surrounding objects.
Do not cut wet grass. For effective mowing do not cut wet
grass because it tends to stick to the underside of the
deck preventing proper mowing of the grass clippings. Cut
no more than 1/3 the length of the grass. The

16
recommended cut for mowing is 1/3 the length of the
grass. Ground speed will need to be adjusted so the
clippings can be dispersed evenly into the lawn. For
especially heavy cutting in thick grass it may be
necessary to use one of the slowest speeds in order to get
a clean well mowed cut. When mowing long grass you
may have to cut the lawn in two passes, lowering the
blade another 1/3 of the length for the second cut and
perhaps cutting in a different pattern than was used the
first time. Overlapping the cut a little on each pass will
also help to clean up any stray clippings left on the lawn.
The mower should always be operated at full throttle to
get the best cut and allow it to do the most effective job of
mowing. Clean underside of deck. Be certain to clean the
underside of the cutting deck after each use to avoid a
build-up of grass, which would prevent proper mulching.
Mowing leaves. The mowing of leaves can also be
beneficial to your lawn. When mowing leaves make sure
they are dry and are not laying too thick on the lawn. Do
not wait for all the leaves to be off the trees before you
mow.
WARNING: If you strike a foreign object, stop the
engine. Remove wire from spark plug, thoroughly inspect
the mower for any damage and repair the damage before
restarting and operating the mower. Extensive vibration of
the mower during operation is an indication of damage.
The unit should be promptly inspected and repaired.
7-7 GRASS CATCHER
There is a level indicator on the top of the grass catcher
that shows whether the catcher is empty or full (Fig. 32,
Fig. 33):
- The level indicator inflates if the catcher is not full
during the moving. (Fig. 33)
- If the catcher is full, the indicator collapses; once this
happens, stop moving immediately and empty the
catcher, make sure it is clean and ensure its meshwork
is ventilated. (Fig. 32)
IMPORTANT
If the position of indicator opening is very dirty, the
indicator will not inflate-in this case, clean the position of
indicator opening immediately.
7-8 DECK
The underside of the mower deck should be cleaned after
each use to prevent a buildup of grass clippings, leaves,
dirt or other matter. If this debris is allowed to accumulate,
it will invite rust and corrosion, and may prevent proper
mulching. The deck may be cleaned by tilting the mower
and scraping clean with a suitable tool (make certain the
spark plug wire is disconnected).
7-9 HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: Do not at any time make any
adjustment to lawn mower without first stopping the
engine and disconnecting the spark plug wire.
CAUTION: Before changing mowing height, stop
mower and disconnect spark plug cable.
Your mower is equipped with a central height
adjustment lever offering 8 height positions.
The height (the blade to the ground) can be adjusted from
25 mm to 70 mm (8 height positions). (Fig. 34)
The lowest adjustment: 25 mm (position 1), the highest
adjustment: 70 mm (position 8).
1. Stop mower and disconnect spark plug cable before
changing mower cutting height.
2. The central height adjustment lever offers you 8
different height positions. (Fig. 34)
To change the height of cut, squeeze adjustment lever
toward the wheel, moving up or down to selected height.
8. MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
SPARK PLUG
Use only original replacement spark plug. For best results,
replace the spark plug every 100 hours of use.
BRAKE PADS
Check and/or replace the engine brake pads in service
agent regularly, only original parts can be used as
replacement.
9. LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: DISCONNECT SPARK PLUG
BEFORE SERVICING.
1. WHEELS-Lubricate the ball bearings in each wheel at
least once a season with a light oil.
2. ENGINE-Follow engine manual for lubrication
instructions.
10. CLEANING
CAUTION: Do not hose engine. Water can
damage engine or contaminate the fuel system.
1. Wipe deck with dry cloth.
2. Hose under deck by tilting the mower so that the spark
plug is up.
10-1 ENGINE AIR CLEANER
CAUTION: Do not allow dirt or dust to clog the air
filter foam element. The engine air cleaner element must
be serviced (cleaned) after 25 hours normal mowing. The
foam element must be serviced regularly if the mower is
used in dry dusty conditions.
TO CLEAN AIR FILTER
1. Remove the screw. (Fig. 35 for PLM4632N and
PLM5130N)
2. Lift the tab on the filter cover. (Fig. 36 for PLM4630N2
and PLM4631N2)
3. Remove the filter cover.
4. Wash filter element in soap water. DO NOT USE
GASOLINE!

17
5. Air dry filter element.
6. Place a few drops of SAE30 oil on the foam filter and
squeeze tightly to remove any excess oil.
7. Reinstall filter.
8. Close the filter cover.
NOTE: Replace filter if frayed, torn, damaged or
unable to be cleaned.
10-2 CUTTING BLADE
CAUTION: Be sure to disconnect and ground the
spark plug wire before working on the cutting blade to
prevent accidental engine starting. Protect hands by using
heavy gloves or a rag to grasp the cutting blades. Tip
mower as specified in separate engine manual. Remove
the hex bolt and washer which hold the blade and blade
adapter to the engine crankshaft. Remove the blade and
adapter from the crankshaft.
WARNING: Periodically inspect the blade
adapter for cracks, especially if you strike a foreign object.
Replace when necessary.
For best results your blade should be sharp. The blade
may be resharpened by removing it and either grinding or
filing the cutting edge keeping as close to the original
bevel as possible. It is extremely important that each
cutting edge receives an equal amount of grinding to
prevent an unbalanced blade. Improper blade balance will
result in excessive vibration causing eventual damage to
the engine and mower. Be sure to carefully balance blade
after sharpening. The blade can be tested for balance by
balancing it on a round shaft screwdriver. Remove metal
from the heavy side until it balances evenly. (Fig. 37)
Before reassembling the blade and the blade adapter to
the unit, lubricate the engine crankshaft and the inner
surface of the blade adapter with light oil. Install the blade
adapter on the crankshaft. Refer to Fig. 37. Place the
blade with the part number facing away from the adapter.
Align the washer over the blade and insert the hex bolt.
Tighten the hex bolt to the torque listed below.
10-3 BLADE MOUNTING TORQUE
Center bolt 40 Nm - 50 Nm, to insure safe operation of
your unit. All nuts and bolts must be checked periodically
for correct tightness.
After prolonged use, especially in sandy soil conditions,
the blade will become worn and lose some of the original
shape. Cutting efficiency will be reduced and the blade
should be replaced. Replace with an approved factory
replacement blade only. Possible damage resulting from
blade unbalance condition is not the responsibility of the
manufacturer.
When you change the blade, must use the original type
marked on the blade (MAKITA 263001451 for
PLM4630N2/PLM4631N2/PLM4632N, MAKITA
263002552 for PLM5130N) (for order the blade, pls.
contact your local dealer or call our company, see cover
page).
