Unable to start my Flymo lawn mower - RRL 420?

I have serviced my mower replacing air filter, spark plug and oil and I have been unable to start it.
It is difficult to find what are the settings for the machine.
I have tried several things and I am still unable to start the mower. Including cleaning the spades inside the pull cord cover area but are unsure what the settings would be incase they have slipped.
Could you give me any information for the settings for the mower or any other advice you could give me. This is the first time I have had the mower out this season.

The petrol within the carburetter may have left waxy deposits like Vaseline that have blocked the jets. Disassemble the carburetter and clean it thoroughly.

Wire brush the magnet area on the spinner so that the pulse sensor is able to detect a clear signal - it will thin give a good strong spark and fire up
