USE

NOTE:

• Check before use that the power cord is undamaged, and that there are no signs of fatigue.
• The lawn mower must be connected to the mains supply with a residual current device with a maximum tripping current of 30 mA.
• Do not use the lawn mower if the power cord or plug are damaged.

ADJUSTING THE MOWING HEIGHT

NOTE:

Switch off the motor by releasing the drive handle. Wait until all moving parts have completely stopped before adjusting the mowing height. The blade continues to rotate for a few seconds after the lawn mower has been switched off – risk of personal injury. Select a higher mowing height for long grass. The mowing height can be set to 20, 40 or 60 mm by adjusting the wheels.

FIG. 6

Pull each end of the front axle forward and move it to the required position.

FIG. 7

Pull each end of the rear wheel axle along the slot, lift the wheel and move it the required position.

NOTE:

• All the wheels should be adjusted to the same height.
• The top position gives the lowest mowing height, and the reverse.
• Only use the lowest mowing height for very smooth lawns and short grass. Medium or high mowing height is suitable in most cases.

STARTING/STOPPING

NOTE:

The blade continues to rotate for a few seconds after the lawn mower has been switched off. Do not start and stop the lawn mower too often, and wait until all moving parts have completely stopped before starting it again.

Starting

1. Set the required mowing height.
2. Keep the safety catch (1) pressed in.
3. Press the drive handle (2) towards the handle.

Stopping

Release the drive handle (2).

LAWN MOWING

Place the lawn mower by the edge of the lawn, near the power point. Work away from the power point.

Check to make sure that the power cord is always lying on the part that has already been cut.

WARNING!

Do not overload the motor, this can damage it. If the motor is overloaded (change in the sound of the motor), switch off the lawn mower and adjust to a higher mowing height.

NOTE:

Do not mow more than 1/3 of the height of the grass at once, this can damage the grass.

Unplug the plug if the lawn mower is overloaded, or the blade gets blocked. Remove the blockage and wait a few minutes before resuming the work.

High grass

1. For high grass the mowing should be done without the catcher.
2. If it is necessary to collect up the grass, first mow with the highest mowing height without the catcher.
3. Allow the grass cuttings to dry.
4. Fit the catcher and mow the lawn again with the highest mowing height.
5. Adjust to a lower mowing height and mow the lawn again. Repeat until the grass is the required height.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING!

Switch off the lawn mower, unplug the plug, and wait until all moving parts have completely stopped before inspection, maintenance and/or cleaning.

NOTE:

The inspection and repair of electrical appliances must only be carried out by an authorised electrician.

• Make sure that all the screw unions are properly tightened to keep the appliance in safe condition.
- Check the catcher for wear or damage at regular intervals.
- On appliances with multiple blades, all the blades can move when just one blade is turned – risk of personal injury.
- Be careful to make sure your fingers do not fasten between the blades and fixed parts of the appliance – risk of serious personal injury.
• Always allow the appliance to cool before cleaning.
- When working with blades, pay attention that the blades can move even when the appliance is switched off.
- Replace damaged or worn parts. Only use approved spare parts and accessories.

Blades

1. The blade is very sharp – wear safety gloves.
2. Avoid touching the edge – risk of cut injury.
3. Be careful when lifting or turning over the appliance.
4. We recommend replacing the blade every other year, or at intervals of 50 working hours (which ever comes first).
5. Replace the blade immediately if it is damaged.

Replacing the blade

WARNING!

The lawn mower will vibrate excessively if the blade is unbalanced, which can result in a risk of personal injury.

1. Switch off the appliance, unplug the power cord, and wait until all moving parts have completely stopped before removing/fitting the blade.
2. Put the appliance on its side.
3. Grip one end of the blade firmly. Wear safety gloves.
4. Undo the retaining screw with the supplied spanner.
5. Carefully remove the blade.
6. Make sure to fit the new blade with the edges towards the motor.
7. Place the new blade over the guide pins. The text on the blade should face outwards.
8. Screw in and tighten the retaining screw.
9. Put the appliance back on its wheels.

LONG-TERM STORAGE

Follow the instructions below if the appliance is not going to be used for a month or more.

1. Clean all the parts of the appliance. Empty and clean grass catcher.
2. Lubricate the wheels, pivot points and linkage.
3. Apply oil to all unpainted metal parts to provide protection from corrosion.
