8.1 Cleaning
After each use, the mower should be thoroughly
cleaned (especially the underside and blade
receptacle).
Note: Before you tilt the lawnmower onto its side,
empty the fuel tank completely with a petrol pump.
The lawnmower must not be tilted more than 90
degrees. The simplest time to remove dirt and grass
is directly after mowing. Dried residual grass and dirt
could cause damage to the mowing operation. Make
sure the grass ejector canal is free from residual
pieces of grass and remove these if necessary.
Never clean the mower with a direct jet of water or a
high pressure cleaner. The motor must stay dry.
Aggressive cleaning agents such as cold cleaning
solvent or petroleum ether must not be used.
