may suffer faults if the mains supply is not
in perfect condition. In this case suitable
action has to be taken (for example
connect the mower to a different circuit or
run the mower on a circuit with lower
impedance).

4. Proper usage

Power connection
The lawn mower can be connected to any
socket (with 230 V alternating current).
However, only use a socket with an earth
connection protected by a cable protection
switch for 16 A and a residual current device
(RCD) circuit-breaker with max. 30 mA.
Mower mains lead
Only use a mower mains lead that is in perfect
condition. The mains lead must not exceed a
certain length (max. 50m), since otherwise the
power of the electric motor will fall. The mains
lead must have a cross-section of 3 x 1.5mm
Mains leads on lawn mowers are particularly
susceptible to insulation damage.
The causes of this include the following:
- Cutting the cable by passing over it with the
mower
- Damage through crushing if the mains lead
is routed under doors or windows
- Cracks caused by ageing of the insulation
sheath
- Kinks caused by incorrect fastening or
routing of the mains lead.
Such damaged mains leads should not be
used under any circumstances as they may
cause fatal injuries due to their damaged
insulation sheath. Cables, plugs and
connection sockets must satisfy the conditions
listed below. Mains leads for connecting lawn
mowers must have rubber insulation sheaths.
The mains leads must be at least type H05RN-
F and have three wires. The type designation
must be printed on the mains lead. Only buy
mains leads that have their type data printed
on them. The plugs and connection sockets on
mains leads must be made of rubber and be
splashproof. Mains leads are subject to length
restrictions. Long mains leads require larger
cable cross-sections.
Mains leads and connection cables must be
checked at regular intervals for signs of
damage. Ensure that the leads are not
