Mowing at the lowest cutting height should only be carried out on level and plane lawns!

height that is too low, the turf can be damaged and under certain circumstances it can even be destroyed.
Besides the cutting height, also the moving speed influences the cutting pattern and collection result. Adapt the
cutting height and moving speed to the grass height to be cut.
8 BEFORE USING THE LAWNMOWER FOR THE FIRST TIME
Check that all connections and the spark plug connector are fitted firmly. Tighten the screws if necessary! In particular make
sure that the cutter bar is fitted correctly (see Chapter "Maintenance of the blade").
The blade attachment screw must always be tightened by an authorised workshop. If the blade attachment screw is too tight
or too loose, the blade clutch and blade can be damaged or become detached, which can cause severe injury.
Make sure that all safety devices are fitted properly and are not damaged.
