Adjusting the Cut Height
Switch off the equipment, discon-
nect the plug and wait for the blade
to stop. There is a risk of injury.
Hold the cutting height adjuster
(11) and move it to the correct
cutting height, as appropriate.
There are 5 different cutting heights:
20-60 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 se-
lected for the first cut of the season.
Switching On and Off
1. Plug the mains lead (18) into
the appliance's power inlet (17).
2. Turn the end of the mains lead
into a loop and hook it into the
cable strain relief (14).
3. Connect the equipment to the
power supply.
4. Before switching on, ensure that
24
the equipment is not in contact
with any objects.
5. To switch on, press
the release button
(16) on the handle
at the same time
as pressing the start lever (2).
Release the release button (16).
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.
Level gauge
The level gauge is located on the side of
the grass catcher. The aerodynamic air
guidance provided by the flap also opti-
mises the filling.
Flap open:
grass catcher empty
Flap closed:
grass catcher full
Working with the Lawnmower
Regular mowing encourages increased fo-
liation 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.
The first cut is to be made in around April,
at a growth height of 70 – 80 mm. In the
main vegetation period, the lawn is to be
mowed at least once a week.
