Assembly
1. Take the mower and attachment parts out of the
packaging and check that all parts are present
(Fig. 2).
2. Fasten the push bar using a square head screw
(Fig. 3a/Item 15) and a star screw (Fig. 3a/Item
18) on each side. For fastening choose one of
the three holes to suit the required height of the
handle. Important. The identical height must be
set on both sides. Ensure that the cords which
are fastened later are not in the way.
3. Fasten the top push bar to the bottom push bar
using a screw (Fig. 3b/Item 16) and a star screw
(Fig. 3b/Item 18) on each side. Make sure that
the lobes of the screws (16) are folded towards
the inside so that the high speed clamping
function remains operational.
4. Insert the grip of the starter cord (Fig. 3c/Item 4)
into the hook provided for that purpose (Fig.
3c/Item 24) as shown in Figure 3c.
5. Fasten the cords to the push bar with the
supplied cable ties (Fig. 3d/Item. 13).
6. Lift the ejector flap (Fig. 4 / Item 8) with one hand
and hook in the grass bag (Fig. 4/Item 7) as
shown in Figure 4
5.2 Setting the cutting height
Important! Adjust the cutting height only when
the engine is switched off and the plug boot has
been pulled.
Before you begin to mow, check to ensure that
the blade is not blunt and that none of the
fasteners are damaged. To prevent any
imbalance, replace blunt and/or damaged blades
as a set only (if applicable). To carry out this
check, first switch off the engine and pull the
spark plug boot.
The cutting height is centrally adjusted with the
cutting height adjustor lever
(Fig. 8/Item 9). Up to 5 different cutting heights
can be selected.
Pull the adjustor lever out and select the desired
cutting height. The lever snaps into the desired
position.

6. Operation
Important!
The engine does not come with oil in it.
Therefore, ensure that you add 0.6 liters of oil
before starting it up. Use normal, multigrade oil
(10W30). The oil level in the engine must be
checked each time before mowing. (see
Checking the oil level).
In order to avoid any unintentional start-ups of the
lawn mower, it comes equipped with an engine
brake (Fig. 5a/Item 1) which must be pulled back
before the engine can be started. When the engine
control lever is released it must return to its initial
position, at which point the engine automatically
switches off.
Move the speed lever (Fig. 7) to position
Press the engine brake lever (Fig. 5b) together
and give the starter cord a vigorous pull. You can
control the rotation speed of the blade using the
speed lever (Fig. 7).
Before you start mowing, you should run through
this operation several times in order to ensure that
the machine is working properly.
Whenever you need to perform any kind of adjust-
ment and/or repair work on your lawn mower, wait
until the blade has come to a complete stop.
Always switch off the engine before carrying out any
adjustments, maintenance or repairs.
Note:
1. Engine brake (Fig. 5a/Item 1): Use the lever to
stop the engine. When you release the lever the
engine and the blade stop automatically (Fig.
5b). To mow, hold the lever in the working
position. Before you start to mow, check the
start/stop lever several times to be sure that it is
working properly. Ensure that the tension cable
can be smoothly operated (i.e. is not catching or
kinking in any way).
2.
Speed lever (Fig. 7): Move this lever in order to
increase or decrease the engine speed. (Tortoise
= Slow / Hare = Fast)
3. Drive lever (clutch lever) (Fig. 5a/Item 19): If you
press this (Fig. 5c) the clutch for the drive will be
closed and the lawnmower will start to move with
the motor running.
Release the drive lever in good time to stop the
moving lawnmower. Practice starting and
stopping before you use the mower for the first
time until you are familiar with controlling the
mower.
