3. When the clutch loop is pressed in approx. 2 cm (posi- tion 1) there should be some resistance when moving the mower backwards. With the clutch loop fully pressed in (position 2) it should not be possible to pull the mower backwards. Loosen the lock- ing nut U and screw out the nipple T until this position is achieved.

4. Finally tighten the locking nut U.

ADJUSTING THE VARIATOR CABLE (*)

If the speed difference between the settings on the variator control, which gives the highest speed (position 3 and ), are judged to be too little or do not exist at all it may be necessary to adjust the var- iator cable (fig. 16).

1.Run the mower in the position for a few minutes.

2.If there is any play on the variator cable by nip- ple Y the cable must be adjusted. Loosen the locking nut X and adjust the cable by screwing out the nipple Y until the play on the cable is taken up.

3.Tighten the locking nut X.

Note! Do not tension the cable more than neces- sary, it should just sit in the nipple Y without play. Too much cable tension will cause the drive belt to break or result in damage to other parts of the transmission. When adjusting after, e.g. fitting a new belt, always start with the nipple Y screwed in fully.

CHANGING BLADES

Use protective gloves to prevent cuts when changing blades/knifeblades.

Check the blade system regularly. Pay special attention to the curved area be- hind the blade edge for signs of wear and tear (fig. 31). If the blade shows signs of damage, it should be replaced. A worn down blade creates imbalance and can damage the mower.

Always check the blade(s) after an impact. First disconnect the ignition cable. If the blade system has been damaged the defective parts must be changed. Always use genuine spare parts.

To replace the blade, slacken the screw (fig. 30). Fit the new blade so that the stamped logotype is turned facing the blade attachment (and not facing the grass). Refit the washer and screw. Tighten the screw fully to a torque of 40 Nm.

When replacing the blade, the blade screw should also be replaced.The guarantee does not cover damage to the blade, blade holder or engine caused by running into obstacles.

When replacing the blade, the blade holder and blade screw, always use original spare parts. Non- authentic spare parts could lead to the risk of per- sonal injury or damage, even if they fit the ma- chine.

SHARPENING OF THE BLADES

Sharpening of the blades must be done by wet method grinding, using a whetstone or a grind- stone.

For the sake of safety, the blades should not be sharpened on an emery wheel. A very high temper- ature could cause the blade to become brittle.

Once the blade has been sharpened, it must then be balanced so as to avoid vi- bration damage.

STORAGE

WINTER STORAGE

Empty the fuel tank. Start the engine and let it run until it stops. The same petrol must not remain in the tank for more than one month.

Tip up the mower and screw out the sparking plug. Pour a teaspoon of engine oil in the sparking plug hole. Pull out the starting handle slowly so that the oil is distributed in the cylinder. Screw in the sparking plug.

Thoroughly clean the mower and store it indoors in a dry place.
