7 WORK INSTRUCTIONS
Heed the safety instructions (see chapter 3.7
"Safety instructions relating to operation",
page 25).
NOTE
Comply with the local regulations as to
when a lawnmower can be operated.
■
Watch out for objects in the grass and re-
move them from the working area.
■
Only mow when visibility is good.
■
Only mow with a sharp cutting blade.
■
Only control the appliance by the handlebar.
■
Only move the appliance at walking speed.
■
Always move the appliance across the slope.
Do not mow up or down the slope, or on
slopes with a gradient of more than 10°. Ex-
ercise particular care when changing direc-
tion.
Cutting performance or operating time of the
rechargeable battery
■
The cutting performance or the area that can
be mown depends on the properties of the
grass. Factors such as the length of the
grass, the grass density, the selected cutting
height and wet grass affect the cutting per-
formance.
■
Optimum operating time is achieved by fre-
quent mowing and keeping the grass short.
■
Frequently switching the lawnmower on and
off during the mowing process reduces the
cutting performance as does a non-fully
charged rechargeable battery.
■
Starting the wheel drive and the mulching re-
duces the cutting performance or the operat-
ing time of the rechargeable battery.
■
To optimise cutting performance, it is recom-
mended to mow the grass often, to set a high
cutting height and to move the appliance at
walking speed.
■
Cutting performance in m² with 100% re-
chargeable battery charge:
■
4237 Li SP: max. 600 m
■
4757 Li SP: max. 700 m
NOTE
To prolong the operating time, an addi-
tional rechargeable battery can be pur-
chased.

Tips for mowing
■
Maintain a constant cutting height of 3–5 cm;
do not mow the grass to less than half its ori-
ginal height.
■
Do not overload the lawnmower. If the motor
speed drops noticeably because of long,
thick grass, increase the cutting height and
mow in several passes.
■
Wind and sun can dry out the lawn after
mowing so it is better to mow in the late after-
noon.
