All LEDs blink:
The battery temperature is too low. Remove the
battery from the equipment, keep it at room tem-
perature for one day. If the fault reoccurs, this me-
ans that the rechargeable battery has undergone
exhaustive discharge and is defective. Remove
the battery from the equipment. Never use or
charge a defective battery.
Caution!
Do not park the lawn mower in the sun. Batteries
which have been inserted could heat up to inad-
missible levels.
6. Operation
Caution!
The lawn mower is equipped with a safety switch
to prevent unauthorized use. Directly before star-
ting up the lawn mover insert the safety plug (Fig.
17) and remove the safety plug again when inter-
rupting or terminating your work.
Important!
For safety reasons, it is not possible to start the
cordless lawn mower if the pitch angle is over
~70° ± 10°.
Caution!
To prevent the equipment switching on acciden-
tally, the lawn mower is equipped with a safety
switch (Fig. 17/Item 8) which must be pressed
before the switching bar (Fig. 16/Item 1) can be
activated. The lawn mower switches itself off
when the switching bar is released. The start
time can amount to several seconds (To make it
easier to start, tilt the lawn mower slightly at the
back (Fig. 25)). The speed will drop after a few
seconds when in idle mode and will rise again
after a few second when in working mode. Repeat
this process several times so that you are sure
that the machine functions properly. Before you
perform any repair or maintenance work on the
equipment, ensure that the blade is not rotating,
that the safety plug (12) is disconnected and that
the batteries (16) have been removed.
Warning! Never open the chute fl ap when the
grass bag has been detached (to be emptied)
and the engine is still running. A rotating blade
can cause serious injuries!
Always carefully fasten the chute fl ap and grass
basket. Before you remove them, switch off the
motor and pull out the safety plug (12) fi rst.

Drive unit
If you press the drive lever/clutch lever (Fig. 16/
Item 20) the clutch for the drive will be closed and
the lawnmower will start to move with the engine
running. Release the drive lever in good time to
stop the moving lawnmower. Practice starting
and stopping before you use the mower for the
fi rst time until you are familiar with controlling the
mower.
Setting the speed (Vario Speed)
The driving speed of the lawnmower can be
adjusted to various diff erent settings. To do so,
push the adjuster lever (Fig. 26/Item 21) forward
until the desired speed is reached. If the adjuster
lever is in the fully forward position in the driving
direction, the lawnmower will move at maximum
speed.
Important! The drive only operates if the motor
is switched on. You therefore have to start the
motor each time fi rst and wait at least until the
rated speed of the motor has been reached be-
fore pressing the drive lever/clutch lever (20). It is
recommended to adjust the driving speed to the
length of the grass you want to cut. The longer the
grass, the slower the speed you should select.
Always ensure that a safe distance (provided
by the length of the long handles) is maintained
between the user and the mower housing. Be
especially careful when mowing and changing
direction on slopes and inclines. Maintain a solid
footing and wear sturdy, non-slip footwear and
long trousers.
Always mow along the incline (not up and down).
For safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be
used to mow inclines whose gradient exceeds 15
degrees.
Use special caution when backing up and pulling
the lawn mower. Tripping hazard!
Tips for proper mowing
It is recommended that you overlap the mo-
wing swaths.
Only use a sharp blade that is in good condition.
This will prevent the grass blades from fraying
and the lawn from turning yellow.
Try to mow in straight lines for a nice, clean look.
The swaths should overlap each other by a few
centimeters in order to avoid stripes.
