Raise the handlebar (Illustration A1 + O4 + B1 )

IMPORTANT
Make sure that the cables are not pinched, squeezed, twisted or overstretched
when the handlebars are folded apart or collapsed! Always run the cables along
the outside of the bar connection. A damaged cable may result in a technical
defect of the equipment.
40-ACCU
NOTE
Before the handlebars are raised, the cutting height must be set to position 3 (40 mm)
or higher I . The handlebar cannot be pivoted backwards completely in the two lower
cutting positions.
All models
– Pull the handlebar which is collapsed in a Z-shape upwards into place A1 .
– When the top and bottom parts of the handlebar are on the same level, firmly
tighten the wing nuts by hand O4 .
– Pivot the bottom part of the handlebar backwards until the toothed plastic fitments
lock into place at the lower end in the toothed recess on the mower housing.
Three different handlebar heights can be set B1 .
– Tighten the wing nuts on both sides by hand B1 .
– Insert the cable in the cable guide and fix on the top and bottom part of the
handlebar using the cable ties from the tool bag O4 . Route the cable along the
outside of the handlebar to ensure the ejector flap can still remove freely during
raising and closing.
When folding the top part of the handlebar over, make sure that the cable can
move freely.
CAUTION
When you activate the bar height adjustment, when loosening the wing nuts
B1 used to secure the bar bottom to the housing (only loosen sufficiently to
ensure that the bar can be moved freely) and snapping the toothed plastic
adaptations from the cut-out on the housing, it is possible that unintentional
upsetting of the bar may occur. In addition, this may result in crushed points
between the bar bottom and the housing. This may result in a risk of injury!

Adjusting the cutting height (Illustration I )

The cutting height is adjusted behing the motor.
– Press the grey push button with your thumb and lift or lower the mower handle to
bring it into the required position.
– Release the push button: the lever now engages in the required cutting height.
– The marking on the left of the housing shows the adjusted cutting height.
IMPORTANT
Mowing at the lowest cutting height should only be carried out on level and plane
lawns!
Please observe that the lower cutting height settings may only be used for
optimal conditions. If you select cutting height that is too low, the turf can be
damaged and under certain circumstances it can even be destroyed.
Besides the cutting height, also the moving speed influences the cutting pattern
and collection result. Adapt the cutting height and moving speed to the grass
height to be cut.

the separate operating instructions for the charger.
