Always mow along the incline (not up and down). For safety reasons, the lawn
mower may not be used to mow inclines whose gradient exceeds 15 degrees.
Use special caution when backing up and pulling the lawn mower. Tripping
hazard!
Tips for proper mowing
It is recommended that you overlap mowing paths a little.
Only use a sharp blade that is in good condition. This will prevent the grass blades
from fraying and the lawn from turning yellow. Try to mow in straight lines for a
nice, clean look. The swaths should overlap each other by a few centimeters in
order to avoid stripes. How frequently you should mow your lawn is determined
primarily by the speed at which the grass grows. In the main growing season (May
- June) you will probably need to mow the lawn twice a week, otherwise just once
a week. The cutting height should be between 4 - 6 cm and the amount of growth
before mowing again should be 4 - 5 cm. If the grass is allowed to grow somewhat
longer on occasion, never make the mistake of cutting it back to the normal
height in one go. This will harm the lawn. Never cut it back by more than half the
height in one go. Keep the underside of the mower housing clean and remove
grass build-up. Deposits not only make it more difficult to start the mower; they
decrease the quality of the cut and make it harder for the equipment to bag the
grass. Always mow along inclines (not up and down). You can prevent the lawn
mower from slipping down by holding a position at an angle upwards. Select the
cutting height according to the length of the grass. If the lawn has grown quite a
bit, mow over it several times so that no more than 4 cm of grass are cut at one
time.
Switch off the motor before doing any checks on the blade. Keep in mind that the
blade continues to rotate for a few seconds after the motor has been switched off.
Never attempt to manually stop the blade.
Regularly check to see if the blade is securely attached, is in good condition and is
sharp. If the contrary is the case, sharpen the blade or replace it.
In the event that the blade strikes an object, immediately switch off the lawn
mower and wait for the blade to come to a complete stop. Then inspect the
condition of the blade and the blade mount.
Replace any parts that are damaged. As soon as grass clippings start to trail the
lawn mower or the level indicator (Figure12/Item A) closes, it is time to empty the
grass bag.
Important. Before taking off the grass bag, switch off the motor and wait until
the blade has come to a stop.
