5.1 Assembling the components
Some parts of the mower come disassembled.
For quick and easy assembly, read and follow the
instructions below.
Important. You will need the following additional
tools (not supplied) for assembly, and also for
maintenance work:
•
A flat oil drip tray (for changing the oil)
•
A 1 liter measuring jug (oil/petrol resistant)
•
A petrol can
•
A funnel (suitable for the tank's petrol filler
neck)
•
Household wipes (to wipe up oil/petrol resi-
due; dispose of these at a filling station)
•
A petrol suction pump (plastic, available from
DIY stores)
•
An oil can with hand pump (available from

Assembly
1. Fasten the push bar (Fig. 3a/Item 3) using
one screw (Fig. 3a/Item 12b) and one star nut
(Fig. 3a/Item 11) on each side. For fastening
choose one of the holes to suit the required
height of the push bar. Important. The identi-
cal height must be set on both sides. Ensure
that the cords which are fastened later are not
in the way.
2. Secure the top push bar to the bottom push
bar using the star nuts (Item 11) and screws
(Item 12a) as shown in Figure 3b.
3. Insert the grip of the starter cord (Fig. 3c/Item
9) into the hook provided for that purpose as
shown in Figure 3c.
4. Fasten the cords to the push bar with the sup-
plied cable clips (Fig. 3d/Item 10).
5. Lift the ejector fl ap (Item 5a) with one hand
and hook in the grass bag (Item 4a) as shown
in Figure 4a.
Important. Whenever you do any work on the
battery and when you dispose of the battery, you
must observe the safety regulations of the manu-
facturer.
Warning! The person entrusted with inserting the
battery should remove all metal armbands, wrist-
watches, rings and similar before starting to insert
the battery. There is a risk of burns if any of these
objects should come into contact with the battery
poles or current-conducting cables.

Warning! Check the insulation on the cables
and plugs each time before use. If there are any
defects in the insulation, the equipment must not
be used.
Warning! Have repairs carried out only by an au-
thorized workshop or by the manufacturer.
5.2 Inserting and removing the battery
(Fig. 13-16)
Important. Use the mower only with a mainte-
nance-free 12V battery.
Remove the battery cover (Item 18) by unscrew-
ing the 4 fastening screws (Fig.13) with a Philips
screwdriver (not included). Place the battery (Item
23) on the base (Fig. 14). First connect the red
cable (+) and then the black cable (-) (Fig. 15).
Connect the battery plug (Fig. 16/Item 17) to the
electrical system plug on the mower (Fig. 16/Item
16). Refi t the battery cover by screwing the 4 fas-
tening screws back in. Remove it in reverse order.
Important. Do not disconnect the battery from
the electrical system during operation as this may
destroy the charge electronics.
5.3 Changing the fuse (Fig. 17)
If the fuse (Item 19) is defective, replace it as
shown in Fig. 17.
5.4 Charging the battery from the electrical
system
The battery is charged by the generator via the
electrical system during operation.
5.5 Charging the battery with the charger
(Fig. 18-20)
If the battery has lost its charge, it can be charged
up with the charger (supplied) via the household
mains system. Disconnect the battery by pulling
the battery plug (Item 17) from the electrical sys-
tem plug (Item 16).
Important. Remove the battery cover (Item 18)
whenever you want to charge the battery. Char-
ging creates explosive gas which could collect
under the cover if closed and lead to explosive
ignition. When you charge the battery, refer to the
safety regulations supplied by the battery manu-
facturer. After the battery has been connected to
the charger by connecting the battery plug (Item
17) and the charging plug (Item 15) to the char-
ger, you can connect the charger to a socket sup-
plying 230V~50Hz. Do not connect it to a socket
that supplies any other mains voltage.
