SYMBOLS
The following symbols appear on the machine. They are there to remind you of the care and atten- tion required in use.
This is what the symbols mean:
Warning! Read the Instruction Book and Safety Manual before using the machine.
Warning! Keep onlookers away. Beware of objects being flung out.
Warning! Do not insert your hands or feet under the deck when the machine is in op- eration.
Warning! Before starting any repair work, remove the spark plug cable from the spark plug.
Warning! Always tilt the lawn- mower backwards when cleaning the underside. Petrol and oil can run out if the lawnmower is tilted in the other direction.
IMPORTANT
Certain models do not have throttle control. The engine’s speed is set for optimal function and min- imal exhaust emissions.
ASSEMBLY
3.Parking position.
4.Delivery and storage position. The handle takes up less space if the knobs are released and the handle folded up.
NOTE! Check that the wires are not caught or bro- ken when the handle is unfolded or folded.
CONTROLS
Install the wires and electric cable (Multiclip 46 SE) in the cable holders E (fig. 3). Secure the start- er handle in lug F on the right hand side of the han- dle.
BATTERY (Multiclip 46 SE)
The electrolyte in the battery is toxic and corrosive. It can cause serious cor- rosion damage etc. Avoid all contact with skin, eyes and clothing.
Before starting for the first time the battery should be charged for 24 hours, see further information under the heading MAINTENANCE, BATTERY.
USING THE MOWER
BEFORE STARTING
FILL THE CRANKCASE WITH OIL
The lawnmower is delivered without any oil in the engine crankcase. The crankcase must be filled with oil before the engine is started for the first time.
1.Remove the oil dipstick (fig. 5, 6, 7).
2.Fill the engine’s crankcase with 0.55 litres of good quality oil (service class SE, SF or SG). Use SAE 30 or SAE
3.Slowly fill to ‘FULL/MAX’. Do not overfill.
HANDLE
Fold up the lower part of the handle.
Then attach the upper part of the handle. This is at- tached with screws, washers and locking wheels (fig. 1).
The handle has four different positions. Release the catch with your foot and set the handle in de- sired position (fig. 2).
1.For normal mowing.
2.For mowing under trees, bushes, etc.
CHECK THE OIL LEVEL
Check before using the machine that the oil level is between ‘FULL/MAX’ and ‘ADD/MIN’ on the dipstick. The mower should stand level.
Briggs Stratton:
Remove and wipe off the dipstick (fig. 5, 6). Slide it down completely and tighten it. Unscrew and pull it up again. Read off the oil level. If the oil level is low, fill with oil up to the ‘FULL/MAX’ mark.
