If you do not intend to use your lawnmower
for long periods it is advisable to follow
this procedure after use:-
1. Release the Operator Presence Control (A1).
2. The engine will begin to stop, tilt the
lawnmower (See Fig K).
3. Once the engine has stopped, disconnect
the spark plug lead (A18) (See fig H).
4. Remove all fuel from the fuel tank.
Cleaning
Keep your lawnmower clean - grass
clippings left in any of the air intakes,
around the engine or under the deck
could become a potential fire hazard.
Do not clean with chemicals, including
petrol, or solvents - some can destroy
critical plastic parts.
1. Remove grass from under the deck with a
piece of wood or similar.
2. Using a soft brush - remove grass clippings
from around the engine and from all air intakes.
3. Remove the fan, See 'Removing and Fitting
the Blade and Fan', and clean with a soft brush.
4. Wipe over the surface of your lawnmower
with a dry cloth.
At the end of the Mowing Season.
Release the Operator Presence Control, wait
until the blade has stopped and disconnect
the spark plug lead BEFORE attempting any
maintenance or adjustment.
1. Allow the engine to cool. Drain the fuel tank
(Fuel left in the engine becomes stale and
causes difficult starting.)
2. Remove the spark plug lead and spark plug.
Pour one teaspoon (5ml) of oil through the spark
plug hole. Pull the starting handle 2 or 3 times.
This will distribute oil on the internal surfaces of
the engine. Inspect, clean and replace the spark
plug. If a new spark plug is required contact
