Caring for your Lawnmower
Cleaning (T)
• USE GLOVES
• IMPORTANT It is very important that you keep your lawn-
mower clean. Grass clippings left in any of the air intakes or
under the lawnmower could become a potential fire hazard.
1. Remove grass from under the lawnmower with brush.
2. Using a soft brush - remove grass clippings from all air
intakes, the discharge chute and the grass box.
3. Remove the Blade, see Figure S, to gain access to the
Fan and clean with a soft brush.
4. Wipe over the surface of your lawnmower with a dry cloth.
• IMPORTANT Never use water for cleaning your lawn-
mower. Do not clean with chemicals, including petrol, or
solvents - some can destroy critical plastic parts.
At the End of the Mowing Season
1. Replace Blade, Bolts, Nuts or Screws, if necessary.
2. Clean your lawnmower thoroughly.
3. Make sure that the electric cable is coiled properly.
