To avoid risk, check the condition and firm attachment of the blade before every
mowing job. The blade attachment screw must always be ti ghtened by an authorised
workshop. If the blade screw is too tight or too loose, the blade coupling and cutt er bar
can become damaged or loose which can lead to serious injuries. A worn or damaged
blade must always be replaced. (Refer here to the chapter "Cutter blade care").
In addition, check the fan, blade coupling and fan housing eve ry 10 operating hours for
wear and a tight fit. Also check equipment screws and nuts for a f irm fit and tighten if
necessary.
Make sure the spark plug connector is fitted tightly. Contact is only dangerous if the
plug connector has not been installed correctly. Never pull the plug connector off with
the engine running. Danger: electric shock.
If the mower mechanism becomes blocked e.g. by colliding with an obstacle, have an
authorised workshop check whether any parts of the mower are damaged or deformed.
Always have any necessary repairs done by an authorised workshop t oo.
If the machine starts to vibrate unusually heavily or to make unusual noises, please
have it checked immediately by an authorised workshop.

Your lawn mower can also be equipped with a mulching kit. The respective conversion
kit to a mulching system is available as an accessory from professional dealerships
(see genuine spare parts and accessories for the conversion kit order no.).
The mulching kit also includes tips and information about mulching. You will also find
information about mulching on the manufacturer website.
WARNING
Always have an authorised workshop carry out the conversi on of the mower to a
mulching system. A wrongly assembled cutting blade coupli ng or a blade screw
that is tightened too tightly or too loosely can allow the cutting blade bars to
become loose and cause severe injur ies.
If the grass should happen to be too high for mulching, the mulching mower can be
converted for mowing with a grass collecting bag in no time.

– Stop the engine.
– Lift the ejection flap.
– Remove the mulching plug from the channel U2 .
– Hook the grass collecting bag in the bracket provided on the mower housing S1 .
The mulching blade system does not have to be converted! The capacity of the
collecting bag can be reduced under difficult mowing conditions (e.g. wet grass).
For the equipment to be used as a mulching machine again, the mulching plug must be
installed again. To do this, remove the grass collecting bag, insert the mulching plug
into the ejector channel and close the ejector flap.
Clean the ejector channel first.

IMPORTANT
During cleaning and maintenance work, do not place the mower on its side, tilt it
forwards (spark plug facing upwar ds) as otherwise start-up dif ficulties could
occur. When tilting the mower upwards make sure the ejection flap does not get
damaged. Sec ure the mower in its raise d position!
NOTE
When tilting the mower upwards, make sure no oil or petrol escapes. Fire hazard!
Remove dirt and residual grass directly after mowing. Use a brush or cloth for cleaning.
Do not rotate the cutter bar, as otherwise motor oil is pumped into the carburettor/air
filter and start-up difficulties can occur.
