CAUTION: your mower is designed to cut normal
residential grass of a height no more than 250 mm.
Do not attempt to mow through unusually tall dry or
wet grass (e.g., pasture) or piles of dry leaves. Debris
may build up on the mower deck or contact the engine
exhaust presenting a potential re hazard.
6. 6 “3 IN 1”-ONLY FOR MP22650
These lawn mowers can be retrotted from its normal
function, based on the application purpose:
1) Mulching-mowing
2) Side discharging-mowing
3) Grass catching-mowing.
What is mulching?
When mulching, the grass is cut in one working step,
then nely chopped and returned to the grass strip as
natural fertilizer.
Hints for mulch-mowing:
- Regular cut-back by max.2cm from 6cm to 4cm grass
height.
- Use a sharp cutting blade - Do not mow wet grass
- Set max. Motor speed
- Only move at working pace
- Regularly clean mulching wedge, housing inner side
and mowing blade.
MOWING OPTIONS
ONE: MULCHING MOWING
1. Raise the rear door and remove the grass catcher.
2. Push the mulching plug into the deck. Lock the
mulching plug with the button into the opening on the
deck. (Fig. 13A/Fig. 13B)
3. Release the rear door.
WARNING: only with a stopped motor and stand-
still cutter.
Fig 13A Fig. 13B
TWO: SIDE DISCHARGING MOWING
1. Lift the rear door and remove the grass catcher.
2. Mount the mulching plug.
3. Lift the mulching cover. (Fig. 14A)

6.7 FOR THE BEST RESULTS WHEN MOWING
Clear lawn of debris. Be sure that the lawn is clear of
stones, sticks, wire or other foreign objects which could
be accidentally thrown out by the mower in any direc-
tion and cause serious personal injury to the operator
and others as well as damage to property and sur-
rounding objects. Do not cut wet grass. For eective
mowing do not cut wet grass because it tends to stick
to the underside of the deck preventing proper mowing
of the grass clippings. Cut no more than 1/3 the length
of the grass. The recommended cut for mowing is 1/3
the length of the grass. Ground speed will need to be
adjusted so the clippings can be dispersed evenly into
the lawn. For especially heavy cutting in thick grass it
may be necessary to use one of the slowest speeds
in order to get a clean well mowed cut. When mowing
long grass you may have to cut the lawn in two passes,
set cutting height with cutting 1/3 of the length for the
second cutting and perhaps cutting in a dierent pat-
tern than was used the rst time. Overlapping the cut a
little on each pass will also help to clean up any stray
clippings left on the lawn. The mower should always be
operated at full throttle to get the best cut and allow it to
do the most eective job of mowing. Clean underside
of deck. Be certain to clean the underside of the cutting
deck after each use to avoid a build-up of grass, which
would prevent proper mulching, when doing this, make
certain the engine is stopped and ignition wire
boot is disconnected. The mowing of leaves can also
be benecial to your lawn. When mowing leaves make
sure they are dry and are not laying too thick on the
lawn. Do not wait for all the leaves to be o the trees
before you mow.
WARNING: if mower strikes a foreign object,
stop the engine. Remove wire from spark plug,
thoroughly inspect the mower for any damage
and repair the damage before restarting and operat-
ing the mower. Extensive vibration of the mower during
operation is an indication of damage. The unit should
be promptly inspected and repaired.
6.8 GRASS CATCHER
If the grass catcher is full of grass, you will need to
empty and clean the grass catcher, make sure it is
clean and ensure its meshwork is ventilated. (Fig.15)
Fig. 15
6.9 DECK
The underside of the mower deck should be cleaned
after each use to prevent a buildup of grass clippings,
leaves, dirt or other matter. If this debris is allowed to
accumulate, it will invite rust and corrosion, and may
prevent proper mulching. The deck may be cleaned by
tilting the mower and scraping clean with a suitable tool
(make certain the engine is stopped and ignition
wire boot is disconnected).
6.10 HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: Do not make any adjustment to lawn
mower without rst stopping the engine and dis-
connecting the ignition wire boot at any time.
CAUTION: Before changing grass cutting height,
stop mower and disconnect spark plug cable.
Your mower is equipped with a central height adjust-
ment lever oering 10 height positions.
The height (the blade tip to the ground) can be adjusted
from 25 mm to 75 mm (For MP18450, MPD18450)
or 30 mm to 80 mm (For MP20500, MSP20650,
MSPD20650 and MP22650)
1. Stop engine and disconnect ignition wire boot before
changing mower cutting height.
2. The central height adjustment lever oers you 10 dif-
ferent height positions (Fig.16).

boot before working on the cutting blade to pre-
vent accidental engine starting. Protect hands by using
heavy gloves or a rag to grasp the cutting blades.
Tip mower as specied in separate engine manual.
Remove the hex bolt and washer which hold the blade
and blade adapter to the engine crankshaft. Remove
the blade and adapter from the crankshaft.
WARNING: Periodically inspect the blade adapter
for cracks, especially if you strike a foreign object.
Replace blade adapter and related parts if crack or
break happens.
For best results your blade should be sharp. The blade
may be sharpened by removing it and either grinding or
ling the cutting edge keeping as close to the original
bevel as possible. It is extremely important that each
cutting edge receives an equal amount of grinding to pre-
vent an unbalanced blade. Improper blade balance will
result in excessive vibration causing eventual damage to
the engine and mower. Be sure to carefully balance blade
after sharpening. The blade can be tested for balance by
balancing it on a round shaft screwdriver. Remove metal
from the heavy side until it balances evenly.
Before reassembling the blade and the blade adapter
to the unit, lubricate the engine crankshaft and the inner
surface of the blade adapter with light oil. Install the blade
adapter on the crankshaft. Refer Fig.19A and Fig. 19B
Place the blade with the part number facing away from the
adapter. Align the washer over the blade and insert the
hex bolt. Tighten the hex bolt to the torque listed below:
Fig.19A-Bar blade assembly is for MP18450, MP2050,
MSP20650 and MP22650.
Fig.19B-Thrown blade assembly is for MPD18450 and

9.3 BLADE MOUNTING TORQUE
For bar blade assembly, install center bolt with torque
between 40N.m and 50N.m. For thrown blade assem-
bly, the torque for four thrown blades is between 30 N.m
and 45 N.m, the torque of center bolt for disc is is be-
tween 40 N.m and 50 N.m. To insure safe operation of
your unit. all nuts and bolts must be checked periodical-
ly for correct tightness. After prolonged use, especially
in sandy soil conditions, the blade will become worn
and lose some of the original shape. Cutting eciently
will be reduced and the blade should be replaced.
Replace with an approved factory replacement blade
only. Possible damage resulting from blade unbalance
condition is not the responsibility of the manufacturer.
When you change the blade, Must use the original type
marked on the blade
WARNING: Do not touch rotating blade.
9.4 ENGINE
Refer to the separate engine manuals for engine main-
tenance instructions.
Maintain engine oil as instructed in the separate engine
manual packed with your unit.
Read and follow instructions carefully.
Service air cleaner as per separate engine manual
under normal conditions. Clean every few hours under
extremely dusty conditions. Poor engine performance
and ooding usually indicates that the air cleaner
should be serviced.
To service the air cleaner, refer to the separate engine
manuals packed with your unit.
The spark plug should be cleaned and the gap reset
once a season. Spark plug replacement is recommend-
ed at the start of each mowing season; check engine
manual for correct plug type and gap specications.
Clean the engine regularly with a cloth or brush. Keep
the cooling system (blower housing area) clean to
permit proper air circulation which is essential to engine
performance and life. Be certain to remove all grass,
dirt and combustible debris from muer area.
10. Storage Instructions (O
Season)
The following steps should be taken to prepare lawn
mower for storage.
1. Empty the tank after the last mowing of the season.
a) Empty the petrol tank with a suction pump.
CAUTION: Do not drain the petrol in closed
rooms, in close proximity of open re, etc. Do not
smoke! Petrol fumes can cause explosion or re.
b) Start the engine and let it run until it has used up all
remaining petrol and stalls.
!
!
c) Remove the spark plug. Use an oil can to ll
approx. 20 ml oil into the combustion chamber. Operate
the starter to evenly distribute the oil in the combustion
chamber. Replace the spark plug.
2. Clean and grease the lawn mower carefully as de-
scribed above under “Lubrication”.
3. Slightly grease the cutter to avoid corrosion.
4. Store the lawn mower in a dry, clean and frost-pro-
tected place, out of reach of unauthorized persons.
CAUTION: The engine must have completely
cooled down before storing the lawn mower.
NOTE: -When storing any type of power equip-
ment in an unventilated or material storage shed,
- Care should be taken to rust-proof the equipment. Us-
ing a light oil or silicone, coat the equipment, especially
cables and all moving parts.
- Be careful not to bend or kink cables.
- If the starter rope becomes disconnected from rope
guide on handle, disconnect and ground the ignition
wire boot, depress the blade control bar and pull the
starter rope out from engine slowly. Slip the starter rope
into the rope guide bolt on handle.
