NOTE - The meanings of the symbols on controls are
explained on page 4 and following.
2.1
Throttle trigger
The throttle is controlled by the lever (1). Lever positions are

LAWN CARE RECOMENDATIONS
Each type of grass has different features and may thus require
different ways to care for the lawn; always read the instructions
on seed boxes for mowing height for the growth conditions in
the work area.
Keep in mind that most grass is made up of a stem and one or
more leaves. If leaves are fully cut, the lawn is damaged and
growth is more difficult.
The following indications generally apply:
– too low a cut causes grass tears and uprooting, with a "spot-
– in the summer, cutting must be higher to avoid the ground
– do not cut wet grass; this could reduce blade efficiency due
– for particularly high grass, initially mow at maximum admit-
The appearance of the lawn will improve if you alternate the
cutting in both directions at the same height.
