16 CARE AND SERVICING OF YOUR LAWNMOWER

Regular care is the best way to guarantee a long service life and problem-free
operation. Insufficient equipment maintenance will lead to safety-related faults!
Only use original spare parts because only those guarantee safety and quality!

Cleaning (Illustration O )

Remove dirt and grass residue immediately after finishing mowing. Place the mower on
its side and use a brush or cloth to clean.
ATTENTION
Do not put your fingers into the openings of the fan housing and hold onto the
fan. If the blade bar is rotated during cleaning, there is a risk that your fingers
may become caught between the fan and the fan housing!
IMPORTANT
Never spray the mower with water. This may damage the electrical systems.

Storage

Always store the device with the safety key removed and without an inserted battery.
Always store the equipment in a clean state in a closed, dry room and inaccessible to
children.

Collapsing the handle (Illustration A1 )

IMPORTANT
Make sure that the cables are not pinched, squeezed, twisted or overstretched
when the handlebars are folded apart or collapsed! Always run the cables along
the outside of the bar connection. A damaged cable may result in a technical
defect of the equipment.

NOTE
Before the handlebar is folded over, the cutting height must be set to position 3 (40 mm)
or higher I . The handlebar cannot be folded completely in the two lower cutting
positions.
All models
– To save storage space or for transportation, loosen the four wing nuts so that the
guide tube can be folded together without resistance in a Z-shape above the
engine A1 .
The toothed plastic adaptations on the bottom bar end must snap out of the
cut-out on the housing.
– Do not kink nor squeeze the cable in the process.
CAUTION
When folding the bar for transport and storage purposes, when loosening the
wing nuts and snapping the toothed plastic adaptations from the cut-out on the
housing, it is possible that unintentional upsetting of the bar may occur. In
addition, this may result in crushed points between the top and bottom part of
the bar as well as the housing. This may result in a risk of injury!

Transporting and securing the equipment (Illustration N + N4 )

– If the equipment has to be carried, do not hold the ejection flap! Hold the carrying
handle at the front and at the back N .
Please take the weight of the machine into consideration before lifting it (see
Technical Data). Lifting large weights can result in health problems.
We recommend that this equipment should always be lifted or carried by at least
two people if other means of help are not available.
When this equipment is transported on a load area, a loading ramp should be used
for loading and unloading.
– Transport the unit upright on all 4 wheels to avoid damage to the equipment and
personal injury.
NOTE
Avoid injuries! Be especially careful when loading or unloading the equipment.
Safety instruction!
See table for explanation of symbols

When a trailer is used, we recommend ensuring that it is equipped with stable
sidewalls.
Only the marked points on the transport vehicle may be used to secure the
equipment.
– Park the means of transport on level ground so that the equipment cannot roll
away before it is secured.
– Remove the collecting bag and secure it separately during transport.
– Secure the equipment with approved load-securing devices (e.g. tie-down straps
with clamping elements) on or inside the vehicle. Tie-down straps are belt bands
made of synthetic fibres. Every tie-down strap is marked with a label. The label
contains important details for application. The information on this label must be
heeded when using the tie-down strap.
– For loaded goods that can roll, we recommend using direct strapping with four
lashing straps. For this purpose, the belts are fastened directly on the fastening
points on the equipment and in the tie-down strapping points on the loading
surface and slightly pre-tensioned N4 .
NOTE
Do not tighten the belts too firmly. Fixing the equipment too firmly can cause
damage.

Maintenance of the blade

A sharp blade guarantees optimum cutting performance. Before you start mowing,
always check the condition and firm attachment of the cutting blade. The blade
attachment screw must always be tightened by an authorised workshop. If the blade
screw is too tight or too loose, the blade fastening and cutter bar can become damaged
or loose which can lead to serious injuries. A worn or damaged blade must always be
replaced.

Sharpening and balancing the blade (Illustration Q )

WARNING
The sharpening and balancing of the blade should be carried out only by an
authorized specialist workshop. An improperly sharpened or unbalanced blade
can cause severe vibrations, and damage the lawnmower.
The cutting edges of the blade must only be ground down to the mark (1) (see
illustration Q ) on the blade (ring). Warning! Keep to a grinding angle of 30°.
Your professional workshop can check this value - (grinding limit) for you!
WARNING
A blade by which the wear limit (marking) has been exceeded can break off and
spin away; this can cause severe injuries.

Replacing the blade

WARNING
The cutting blade bar must always be replaced by an authorised workshop. A
wrongly assembled cutter fastening or a blade screw that is tightened too tightly
or too loosely can allow the cutting blade bar to become loose and cause severe
injuries.
– Only use genuine cutter bars for replacement. Non-equivalent spare parts can
damage the machine and are a safety hazard.
– Replacement cutting tool must be marked permanently with the name and/or
company logo of the manufacturer or supplier and the part number.

Servicing the wheels (Illustration S )

Lubricate the wheel bearings once a year or every 15-20 operating hours.
– Remove the wheel caps S .
– Use a socket wrench to loosen the hexagon nut, washer and wheels.
– After the bearings have been lubricated with roller bearing grease "KAJO-Longlife
grease LZR 2", push the wheels back in place, replace the washer, fix the hexagon
nut and tighten until the wheels can just about turn easily but without play. Replace
the wheel caps.
