Install the blade (34) on the mower and tighten securely,
u
see the instructions for removing and installing blades.
Blade balancing (fig. U)
Check the balance of the blade by putting the centre hole
u
in the blade on to a nail or a round shank screwdriver that
is clamped horizontally in a vice. If either end of the blade
rotates downward, file that end of the blade until the blade
is balanced.
Lubrication
No lubrication is necessary. Do not oil the wheels. They have
plastic bearing surfaces which require no lubrication.
Cleaning
Release the bail bar (3) to turn the lawnmower off and wait
u
for the blade to come to a complete stop.
Remove the safety key (1).
u
Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the mower.

Use a blunt tool to clean out any clippings which may have
u
accumulated on the underside of the mower.
After several uses, check all exposed fasteners for

tightness.
Preventing corrosion

greatly accelerate the corrosion of metals. If you mow in areas

should be cleaned immediately afterward as follows:
