Safety instructions
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 -
allow it to cool off in the open air before storing away.
• Never keep the machine with petrol in the tank within a build-
ing in which gasoline vapours may possibly come into con-
tact with naked ames or sparks. Before leaving the mower
remove the spark plug lead and - if tted - 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
stretched when folding or unfolding.
• Always carry out the engine oil change with the fuel tank
empty and ller cap tted. 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 xing bolts and nuts, particularly those
of the cutter bar, for tightness.
Maintenance and cleaning of the equipment as well as remov-
ing the protection device may only be performed with the
engine 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 rmly tight-
ened and that the unit is in a safe operating condition.
• In order to avoid the risk of re keep the engine, exhaust,
battery 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 ns and
engine cooling air intake clean and free from debris.
• Do not place the equipment in damp areas, near naked
ames 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
retaining bolt must be tightened to a specied torque.
• Wear suitable work gloves when carrying out the above work,
especially when handling the blade.
