Assembly - Wolf Garten XQ 4 HW Mode D'emploi

Before removing the grass box: Turn off the engine and wait
for the blade to stop. Carefully refit the grass box after emp-
tying.
Never drive over gravel with the engine running - stones can
be thrown by contact with the blade!
Where possible, do not mow in wet grass. If the mower ap-
pears to have blocked, turn off the engine, remove the spark
plug lead and wait until the blade comes to a standstill if, for
example:
–
to free a blockage in the ejection channel
–
to examine or clean the mower
–
if a foreign body is encountered. Check whether mower
deck or blade have been damaged. Then correct or repair
the damage before recommencing mowing.
–
if the mower strongly vibrates from imbalance (then switch
off immediately and look for the cause).
NOTE: Danger when grass box equipment is inappropriately
handled.
If the mower is a self-propelled version then release the drive
clutch bail before you switch on the engine. Do not touch en-
gine or exhaust during or shortly after operation. Hot parts can
lead to burns or provoke frightened movements which may
lead to injuries.
Turn the engine off if you the leave the lawn mower unatten-
ded and before you refuel.
After working
The throttle should be closed before switching off the engine.
If the engine is equipped with a petrol shut-off valve then this
be closed after mowing has been completed.
Do not leave the mower in closed areas after switching off - al-
low it to cool off in the open air before storing away.
Never keep the machine with petrol in the tank within a buil-
ding in which gasoline vapours may possibly come into con-
tact with naked flames or sparks. Before leaving the mower
remove the spark plug lead and - if fitted - the starting key.
Lifting and carrying the mower for transport:
Never attempt to lift the mower with the engine running - nor
with a hot engine - always remove the spark plug lead before
lifting or carrying.

When folding the mower handlebars, detach starter rope and
make certain that the control cables are not snagged or stret-
ched when folding or unfolding.
Always carry out the engine oil change with the fuel tank em-
pty and filler cap fitted. The engine should be warmed up prior
to draining the oil to ensure all sludge deposits are drained
away with the oil.
Maintenance
Regularly examine all fixing bolts and nuts, particularly those
of the cutter bar, for tightness.
Maintenance and cleaning of the equipment as well as remo-
ving the protection device may only be performed with the en-
gine stopped and the spark plug lead and - if available - the
starting key, removed.
Note information on the chassis before cleaning and oil
change!
Make certain that all nuts, pins and screws are firmly tightened
and that the unit is in a safe operating condition.
In order to avoid the risk of fire keep the engine, exhaust, bat-
tery box and the area around the fuel tank free of grass, leaves
or oil.
If the equipment must be tilted for maintenance work then the
fuel must be completely drained from the tank beforehand.
Clean the equipment after each use with a hand-brush - not
with water and do not hose down with a high pressure hose in
particular. Make certain to keep the engine cooling fins and
engine cooling air intake clean and free from debris.
Do not place the equipment in damp areas, near naked flames
or where a spark might ignite petrol vapour.
If the fuel tank is to be emptied then this should be done out-
doors. Make sure that no fuel is spilled.
For safety reasons replace worn out or damaged parts.
NOTE! Always have blades replaced or sharpened by a
WOLF Service Centre, as a blade balance test must be per-
formed in accordance with safety regulations and the blade re-
taining bolt must be tightened to a specified torque.
Wear suitable work gloves when carrying out the above work,
especially when handling the blade.
