6. Operation

Important!

The engine does not come with oil in it.

Therefore, ensure that you add 0.6 liters of oil

before starting it up. Use normal, multigrade oil

(15W40). The oil level in the engine must be

checked each time before mowing. (see

Checking the oil level).

In order to avoid any unintentional start-ups of the

lawn mower, it comes equipped with an engine

brake (Fig. 10/Item A) which must be pulled back

before the engine can be started. When the engine

control lever is released it must return to its initial

position, at which point the engine automatically

switches off.

Before you start the lawn mower, open the petrol

cock (Fig. 11, arrow = petrol cock open). Move the

speed lever (Fig. 12) to position “

”. Press the

engine brake lever (Fig. 10/Pos. A) together and

give the starter cord a vigorous pull. You can

control the rotation speed of the blade using the

speed lever (Fig. 12).

Before you start mowing, you should run through

this operation several times in order to ensure that

the machine is working properly.

Whenever you need to perform any kind of adjust-

ment and/or repair work on your lawn mower, wait

until the blade has come to a complete stop.

Always switch off the engine before carrying out any

adjustments, maintenance or repairs.

Note:

1. Engine brake (Fig. 10/Item A): Use the lever to

stop the engine. When you release the lever the

engine and the blade stop automatically (Fig.

10/Pos. A). To mow, hold the lever in the working

position. Before you start to mow, check the

start/stop lever several times to be sure that it is

working properly. Ensure that the tension cable

can be smoothly operated (i.e. is not catching or

kinking in any way).

2. Speed lever (Fig. 12): Move this lever in order to

increase or decrease the engine speed. (Tortoise

= Slow / Hare = Fast)

3. Drive lever (clutch lever) (Fig. 1/Item 1): If you

press this (Fig. 13/Item B) the clutch for the drive

will be closed and the lawnmower will start to

move with the motor running.

Release the drive lever in good time to stop the

moving lawnmower. Practice starting and

stopping before you use the mower for the first

time until you are familiar with controlling the

mower.

4. Caution: The blade begins to rotate as soon as

the engine is started.

Important:

Before you start the engine, move the motor

brake several times to be sure that the stop

cable is properly working. Note: The engine is

factory set to a speed that is optimal for cutting

and blowing grass into the basket and is

designed to provide many years of use.

5. Check the oil level.

6. Fill the tank with approx. 1.1 liters of petrol

whenever empty, using a funnel and measuring

jug to do so. Ensure that the petrol is free of any

contaminants.

Note: Use only unleaded petrol as fuel.

Warning: Never use more than one safety petrol

can. Do not smoke when refueling. Switch off the

engine before refueling and allow the engine to cool

down for a few minutes.

7. Ensure that the ignition cable is connected to the

spark plug.

8. Move the speed lever to position “

”.

9. Stand behind the mower. Place one hand on the

engine start/stop lever. Place the other hand on

the starter handle.

10. Start the engine using the reversing starter (Fig.

1/Item 5). To do this pull the handle approx. 10 –

15 cm (until you feel a resistance) and then start

the engine with a sharp pull. If the engine does

not start, pull the handle again.

Important! Never allow the starter cord to snap

back.

Note: In cold weather, it may be necessary to

repeat the starting process several times.

11. When the engine is at working temperature it can

be started in the “Tortoise” (Fig. 12) setting.

Important: Attempting to start the engine when

set at position “

” may cause the spark plug to

become wet if the engine is at working

temperature. Wait a few minutes before

attempting to start the engine again.

6.1 Before mowing

Important information

1. Make sure that you are properly dressed when

mowing. Wear sturdy, non-slip footwear; do not

wear sandals or tennis shoes.

2. Inspect the blade. A blade that is bent or

damaged in any other way must be immediately

exchanged for a genuine Einhell replacement

blade.
