5. Before starting the equipment
Assembling the components
Some parts of the mower come disassembled.
The work of assembly should be carried out by 2
people. For quick and easy assembly, read and
follow the instructions below.
Important. You will need the following additional
tools (not supplied) for assembly, and also for
maintenance work:
•
A flat oil drip tray (for changing the oil)
•
A 1 liter measuring jug (oil/petrol resistant)
•
A petrol can
•
A funnel (suitable for the tank's petrol filler
neck)
•
Household wipes (to wipe up oil/petrol resi-
due; dispose of these at a filling station)
•
A petrol suction pump (plastic, available from
DIY stores)
•
An oil can with hand pump (available from
DIY stores)
Fitting the steering wheel (Fig. 9 - 11)
Place the machine on a straight and level surface.
Align the wheels straight ahead and fi t the stee-
ring wheel (Item 5) as shown.
Inserting and removing the battery
(Fig. 14-15)
Important. Use the mower only with a mainte-
nance-free 12V battery.
Place the battery (Item 37) on the base. First con-
nect the red cable "+" and then the black cable "-".
Secure the battery with the tensioning spring (Fig.
15). Remove it in reverse order.
Important. Do not disconnect the battery from
the electrical system during operation as this may
destroy the charge electronics.
Charging the battery from the electrical sys-
tem
The battery is charged by the generator via the
electrical system during operation.
Charging the battery with the charger
If the battery has lost its charge, it can be charged
up with a charger (not included in delivery) via the
household mains system. Disconnect the battery

from the electrical system as described in the
section: "Inserting and removing the battery". We
recommend that you use an Einhell charger.
Important. Explosive gas is generated during the
charging process. This could collect under the co-
ver if closed and lead to explosive ignition. When
you charge the battery, refer to the safety regulati-
ons supplied by the battery manufacturer.
Important. Explosive gas can be generated du-
ring the charging process. You should therefore
avoid spark formation and naked fl ames during
the charging process.
Fitting the driver's seat (Fig. 16)
Fit the seat (Item 4) as shown. Adjust the position
of the seat by moving it in the slots. Adjust it to a
comfortable sitting position and make sure that
you can reach all of the control levers and pedals
easily.
