The correct height is around 25 – 40 mm
for a decorative lawn and around 30 –
60 mm for a used lawn.
A higher cut height should be
selected for the first cut of the sea-
son.
Observe the noise protection and
local regulations.
Adjust front wheels
The lawn mower is extremely flexible and
manoeuvrable thanks to the special con-
struction of the front wheels.
These are to be adjusted according to the
specific situation as follows:
1. The alignment of the wheel is
fixed once the clamping bra-
ckets (25) snaps into place. If
the wheel is desired in another
running direction, lift clamping
bracket to release it. Bring
wheel into new position and
clamping brackets snaps into
place once again.
2. Should the front wheels remain
able to move freely, lift the
clamping brackets (25) and do
not place them in the opening,
but rather set them on the plate
beside it.
Working with the Lawnmower
Regular mowing encourages increased
foliation 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.
•
Start mowing near the socket and
work away from the socket.
•
Always keep the extension cable
behind you and when you turn, move
it to the side that has already been
mowed.
•
Run the equipment at a walking pace,
in tracks that are as even as possi-
ble. For gap-free mowing, the tracks
should always overlap by a few centi-
metres.
•
Adjust the cut height so the equipment
is not overloaded. Otherwise, the mo-
tor may be damaged.
•
On slopes, always work across the
slope. Take particular care when go-
ing backwards and pulling the equip-
ment.
•
Clean the equipment after each use,
as described in the chapter on "Clean-
ing, Maintenance and Storage".
Switch off the equipment after
work and in order to transport it,
disconnect the plug and wait until
the blade stops. There is a risk of
injury.
