3. Pull the starter cord (24).
4. When the engine starts, allow the
starter handle to slowly slide back
into the starter cable guide (23).
For a warm start it is not neces-
sary to press the primer (
If the primer is pressed too often,
too much petrol will enter the car-
burettor and the motor is difficult to
start.
Stopping the engine:
•
Release the safety loop (2).
The motor switches off and the knife
is braked.
Regularly examine the knife
stopping device:

Working instructions
General working instructions
•
As far as possible, mow the lawn when
it is dry in order to protect the turf.
•
Set the cutting height such that the
equipment is not overloaded.
•
Run the equipment at walking speed
in lines that are as straight as pos-
sible. For uninterrupted mowing, the
lines should always overlap by a few
centimetres.
•
Do not move backwards.
10).
•
On slopes, always work across the
slope.
•
If the blade comes into contact with
a foreign body, switch off the engine
immediately. Wait until the blade is
stationary and check the equipment
for damage. Restart work only if the
equipment is undamaged.
•
Switch off the equipment during long-
er breaks and for transportation and
wait until the blade is stationary.
•
Clean the equipment after each use,
as described in the "cleaning and
maintenance" chapter.
Difference between moving
and mulching lawns
When using the mulch kit (26), the grass
clippings are not captured in a collection
box but are instead shredded and spread
across the lawn. The nutrients contained
in the clippings are thus left to be broken
down by soil organisms and form a nutri-
ent cycle. Mulched lawns therefore need
to be fertilised much less frequently.
As a basic rule, the lawn has to be mowed
relatively often so that only small amounts
of mulch remain on the lawn.
It is therefore best to mulch the lawn at
least once a week and to adjust the mower
so that only about 40% of the total height
of the lawn is left as mulch. If the mulch
remains visible on the lawn (for example
when cutting the lawn for the first time of
the year or during strong growth), the grass
collection box (22) should be used.
