The equipment has 7 positions for
adjusting the cut height: 30 - 75 mm
The correct height is around 30 – 45 mm
for a decorative lawn and around
30 –65 mm for a used lawn.
A higher cut height should be
selected for the first cut of the sea-
son.
Switching On and Off
1. Connect the mains cable (17) with the
extension cable.
2. Turn the end of the extension cable
into a loop and hook it into the cable
strain relief (20).
3. Connect the equipment to the power
supply.
4. Before switching on, ensure that the
equipment is not in contact with any
objects.
5. To switch on, press the
release button (19) on the
handle at the same time
as pressing the start lever
(2). Release the release button (19).
6. To switch off, release the
start lever (2).
After switching off the equip-
ment, the blade continues to
turn for several seconds. Do not
touch the moving blade. There
is a risk of injury.

Working with the Lawnmower
Regular mowing encourages increased
foliation of the grass and kills off weeds at
the same time. Therefore, not only does
each mowing increase the density of the
lawn, it also produces an evenly resilient
lawn.
When mulch mowing the grass is cut in
one cycle, finely chopped and distributed
on the lawn. The cut grass acts as a natu-
ral fertilizer.
Mowing a lawn with a lateral grass ejec-
tion point is suitable for larger surfaces.
The clippings are ejected from the side
and can subsequently be collected manu-
ally in one cycle.
•
Start mowing near the socket and
work away from the socket.

•
Always keep the extension cable be-
hind you and when you turn, move it to
the side that has already been mowed.
•
Run the equipment at a walking pace,

in tracks that are as even as possi-

ble. For gap-free mowing, the tracks

should always overlap by a few centi-
metres.
•
Adjust the cut height so the equipment
is not overloaded. Otherwise, the mo-
tor may be damaged.
•
On slopes, always work across the
slope. Take particular care when going
backwards and pulling the equipment.
•
Clean the equipment after each use,
as described in the chapter on "Clean-
ing, Maintenance and Storage".
