!
off, the cutter continues running for
several seconds – therefore do not
touch the underside of the mower until
the cutter has come to a standstill!
Setting the cutting height
See assembly manual
The adjustment levers must always be set at
the same height.
Lawnmowing
To ensure a well-tended lawn, the grass should
be kept short at all times, ca. 2 cm.
Whenever possible cut your lawn weekly.
Only cut the lawn when the grass is relatively
dry.

Overload protection
The machine is provided with an integrated
protection switch which switches the motor off
in the event of an overload.
Let go of the safety lever and allow the motor to
cool down for about 2 minutes.
After the cooling phase, start the motor again as
usual.
If the overload protection has been
!
activated and the safety lever is
pressed, the motor starts again after
the expiry of the cooling phase –
risk of injuries!!!

Maintenance and care

Pull the plug out before any
!
maintenance and cleaning work.
Clean the appliance after each use.
Never splash with water.
Penetrating water can destroy the switch/plug
combination and the electric motor.
Clean the appliance with a spatula, cloth etc.
Risk of injury on the blade shaft.
!
Wear protective gloves.
We then recommend spraying the underside
of the guard and blade cylinder with
environmentally friendly, biodegradable oil
(for rust prevention).
Expert inspection is required:
a) if the lawn mower strikes an object
b) if the motor stops suddenly
c) if the rotating blade roller is bent
d) if a short-circuit occurs when the cable is
connected
e) if the V-belt is defective
Adjustment of the blades
The blades were adjusted correctly before the
lawnmower left the factory.
If, after a period of use, a clean cut cannot be
achieved, the lower blade should be adjusted.
