• Before reversing, make sure there are no small
children behind you.
• Only cut with sharp, flawless mowing blades so that
the blades of grass do not fray and the lawn does
not turn yellow.
• To achieve a clean cut, guide the lawnmower in the
straightest possible paths. These strips should al-
ways overlap by a few centimetres so that no patch-
es remain.
• Keep the underside of the mower housing clean
and be sure to remove grass debris. Grass depos-
its make the starting process more difficult, impair
cutting quality and grass discharge.
11.6.1 Adjusting the cutting height (fig. 10)
m Attention! The cutting height may only be ad-
justed when the mower is shut off.
Set the cutting height depending on the actual length
of the lawn. Carry out several passes so that a maxi-
mum of 4 cm of lawn is removed at a time.
1. Engage the cutting height adjustment lever (3) to
the desired cutting height.
2. 5 different cutting heights can be set.
IMPORTANT: For transport, the cutting tool must al-
ways be placed in the highest position (level 5).
11.6.2 Mowing / starting with the mowing unit
switched on (fig. 10, 11 + 12)
m WARNING!
Risk of injury and damage!
Objects can be ejected and may hit and injure per-
sons. Solid objects can damage the product.
In addition, small stones or other objects can be
ejected at least 15 meters. This can damage cars,
houses, and windows.
- When mowing, keep a distance of 30 metres be-
tween bystanders or animals.
- Do not remove objects from footpaths etc. with the
product.
NOTE!
Risk of damage!
If the product is not cleaned on a regular basis,
grass/weed residues may become trapped below
the protection shield and may block the product. This
can impair the performance of the product and dam-
age it in the long run.
- Clean the product thoroughly after each use.
Attention! Only change gears when the vehicle is
at a standstill.
1. With the "tortoise" low engine speed, depress the
brake pedal (9) all the way. The locking brake (8)
must be activated in position P (fig. 10).
2. Slowly push the mowing unit shift lever (11) for-
ward until it engages to switch on the mowing unit.
3. With the "tortoise" low engine speed, depress the
brake pedal (9) all the way. This unlocks the lock-
ing brake (8).
4. Put in the desired gear (14).
5. Release the brake pedal (9) slowly to mobilise the
petrol ride-on lawnmower slowly.
6. Push the speed lever (12) in the direction of the
"Hare" to accelerate.
7. To stop the device, depress the brake pedal (9).
11.6.3 Working on slopes
m WARNING!
Danger due to errors when driving on slopes!
Take special care when driving on slopes! There is no
"safe" slope. Pay particular attention to the following
safety instructions!
- If the wheels should spin or if the vehicle gets stuck
when climbing a slope, disengage the mowing unit
and attachment devices. Then slowly descend and
leave the slope in a straight direction!
- A full catch basket increases the risk of the petrol
ride-on lawnmower tipping over due to its weight!
• On slopes, the cutting path should be made per-
pendicular to the slope. It is possible to prevent the
lawnmower from slipping by lifting it upwards at an
angle.
• Slopes are one of the main causes of accidents
where control of the petrol ride-on lawnmower is
lost and the device tips over. This can cause seri-
ous or even fatal injuries.
• For safety reasons, the device must not be used on
slopes steeper than 10° (17.6 %).
• 10° slope corresponds to a vertical rise of 17.6 cm
at 100 cm horizontal length.
• Avoid starting or stopping on a slope.
• Do not use the device in places such as slopes or
ditches where it may tip over or slip. The danger of
tipping over or slipping is greater if the surface is
loose or damp.
• Always drive on slopes in the longitudinal direction.
There is an increased risk of tipping over when driv-
ing sideways.
• When driving on slopes, do not make abrupt chang-
es in speed or direction. Working in such situations
requires careful, calm and steady operation of the
petrol ride-on lawnmower.
• Avoid changes of direction on slopes. Turn around
on slopes only if this is unavoidable; if possible,
drive slowly and in a wide arc in the downward di-
rection.
• Do not mow wet grass, especially on slopes, as
grip is reduced on wet grass. The petrol ride-on
lawnmower could slip and therefore no longer be
controlled by the user.
• When driving on slopes, the transmission must not
be unlocked by means of the gear freewheel.
