- If petrol has overflowed, do not under any circumstances attempt to start the engine. Instead, remove the machine from the affected area. Avoid starting the engine until the petrol fumes have completely evaporated.

- For safety reasons, the petrol tank and other tank closures must be replaced if they are damaged.

1. Replace defective mufflers.

2. Before using the mower, visually inspect it to ensure that the blade, mounting bolts and the entire cutting apparatus are in good working order (i.e. not worn out or damaged). To prevent any imbalance, replace worn out or damaged blades and mounting bolts as a set only (if applicable).

3. Please note that where a mower has more than one blade, the rotation of one of the blades can cause the others to rotate as well.

Handling

1. Do not let the combustion engine run in enclosed areas, as dangerous carbon monoxide gas can build up.
2. Only mow in broad daylight or in well-lit conditions. Avoid using the machine on wet grass as far as possible.
3. Always maintain good footing on inclines.
4. Only operate the machine at a walking pace.
5. For machines with wheels: Always mow across hills i.e. never straight up or straight down.
6. Be particularly careful when you change direction on a slope.
7. Do not mow on overly steep inclines.
8. Always be extra careful when turning the mower around and when pulling it towards you.
9. Switch off the lawn mower and ensure that the blade has stopped rotating whenever the mower has to be tilted for transporting over areas other than lawns and whenever it has to be moved from or to the area you want to mow.
10. Never use the lawn mower if the blade or safety grilles are damaged, or without the attached guards, e.g. deflectors and/or grass catching devices.
11. Do not adjust or overclock the engine speed settings.
12. Release the engine brake before you start the engine.
13. Start the engine with care, in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Make sure that your feet are far enough away from the mower blade!
14. Do not tilt the lawn mower when you start the

engine unless the mower must raised off of the ground a little in order to start it. In the latter case, tilt the mower as little as absolutely necessary and only raise the side opposite to that of the user.

1. Never start the engine while standing in front of the chute.
2. Never move your hands or feet toward or under any rotating parts. Keep clear of the chute opening at all times.
3. Never lift or carry a lawn mower with the engine running.
4. Switch off the engine and pull the spark plug boot; Make sure that all moving parts have come to a complete standstill:

- before you dislodge any blockages or clogs in the chute.

• before carrying out any checks, cleaning, maintenance or other work on the lawn mower

• if the lawn mower strikes a foreign body, examine it for signs of damage and carry out any necessary repairs before restarting and continuing to work with the mower. If the lawn mower begins to experience exceptionally strong vibrations, immediately switch it off and check it.

• Switch off the engine; Make sure that all moving parts have come to a complete standstill:

• when you leave the lawn mower.

• before you refuel.

• Operation of the machine at higher than normal speed can lead to an increased risk of accidents.

• Take care when carrying out installation work on the machine, and avoid trapping fingers between the moving cutting tool and the fixed parts of the machine.

6.1 Assembling the components

Some parts of the mower come disassembled. 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 residue; 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)

Assembly

1. Fasten the push bar (Fig. 3a/Item 5) using one screw (Fig. 3a/Item 15) and one star nut (Fig. 3a/Item 12) on each side. For fastening choose one of the holes to suit the required height of the push bar. Important: The identical height must be set on both sides. Make sure that the cables which are fastened later are not in the way.
2. Fasten the top push bar to the bottom push bar using a screw (Fig. 3b/Item 16) and a star nut (Fig. 3b/Item 12) on each side.
3. Insert the grip of the starter cable (Fig. 3c/Item 4) into the hook provided for that purpose as shown in Fig. 3c.
4. Fasten the cables to the push bar with the supplied cable clips (Fig. 3d/Item 13).
5. Lift the ejector flap (Fig. 4/Item 8) with one hand and hook in the grass bag (Fig. 4/Item 7) as shown in Fig. 4.

6.2 Setting the cutting height (Fig. 15-16)

Important! Adjust the cutting height only when the engine is switched off and the plug boot has been pulled.

●Before you begin to mow, check to ensure that the blade is not blunt and that none of the fasteners are damaged. To prevent any imbalance, replace blunt and/or damaged blades as a set only (if applicable). To carry out this check, first switch off the engine and pull the spark plug boot.
●The cutting height is centrally adjusted with the cutting height adjustor lever (Fig. 7/Item 9). Up to 5 different cutting heights can be selected.
●Pull the adjuster lever out and select the desired cutting height. The lever will snap into the desired position.

7. Operation

Note:

For detailed information on starting the engine, refer to the enclosed manual from Briggs & Stratton.

Important.

The engine does not come with oil in it.

Therefore, be sure to add oil before starting the engine. You will also need to fill in petrol, as this is also not supplied upon delivery.

In order to avoid any unintentional start-ups of the lawn mower, it comes equipped with an engine brake (Fig. 5a/Item 1) which must be pulled back before the engine can be started. When the engine control lever is released it must return to its initial position, at which point the engine automatically switches off.

Whenever you need to perform any kind of adjustment and/or repair work on your lawn mower, wait until the blade has come to a complete stop. Always switch off the engine before carrying out any adjustments, maintenance or repairs.

Note:

1. Engine brake (Fig. 5a/Item 1):

Use the lever to stop the engine. When you release the lever the engine and the blade stop automatically (Fig. 5b). To mow, hold the lever in the working position. Before you start to mow, check the start/stop lever several times to be sure that it is working properly. Ensure that the tension cable can be smoothly operated (i.e. is not catching or kinking in any way).

1. Drive lever (clutch lever) (Fig. 11/Item 19): If you press this (Fig. 11) the clutch for the drive will be closed and the lawnmower will start to move with the motor running.

Release the drive lever in good time to stop the moving lawnmower. Practice starting and stopping before you use the mower for the first time until you are familiar with controlling the mower.

1. Caution: The blade begins to rotate as soon as the engine is started.

Important:

Before you start the engine, move the motor brake several times to be sure that the stop cable is properly working.

Note: The engine is factory set to a speed that is optimal for cutting and blowing grass into the basket and is designed to provide many years of use.

GB

1. Check the oil level.
2. Fill the tank with petrol when it is empty, using a funnel and measuring vessel. Make sure that the petrol is clean.

Warning: Never use more than one safety petrol can. Do not smoke when refueling. Switch off the engine before refueling and allow the engine to cool down for a few minutes.

7.1 Before mowing

Important information

1. Make sure that you are properly dressed when mowing. Wear sturdy, non-slip footwear; do not wear sandals or tennis shoes.
2. Inspect the blade. A blade that is bent or damaged in any other way must be immediately exchanged for a genuine Einhell replacement blade.
3. Do not fill the fuel tank indoors, but rather out in the open. Use a filling funnel and a measuring jug. Wipe off any spilled petrol.
4. Read and follow in the instructions in the operating manual as well as the information regarding the engine and accessory equipment. Store the manual in a place where it can be readily accessed by other users of the machine.
5. Exhaust gas is dangerous. Only start the engine out in the open.
6. Make sure that all the guards are fitted and that they are in good working order.
7. The machine should only be operated by persons who are well informed with the way it works, and who are in reasonably good physical condition.
8. It can be dangerous to mow the grass when it is wet. Try to ensure that you only mow the grass when it is dry.
9. Advise children and others to keep well away from the lawn mower.
10. Never mow the grass in poor visibility.
11. Remove all loose objects from the lawn before you start mowing the grass.

7.2 Tips for proper mowing

Important! Never open the chute flap when the catch bag has been detached (to be emptied) and the engine is still running. The rotating blade can cause serious injuries!

Always carefully fasten the chute flap and grass basket. Switch off the engine before emptying the grass basket.

Always ensure that a safe distance (provided by the length of the long handles) is maintained between the user and the mower housing. Be especially careful when mowing and changing direction on slopes and inclines. Maintain a solid footing and wear sturdy, non-slip footwear and long trousers. Always mow along the incline (not up and down).

For safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be used to mow inclines whose gradient exceeds 15 degrees.

Use special caution when backing up and pulling the lawn mower. Tripping hazard!

7.3 Mowing

Only use a sharp blade that is in good condition. This will prevent the grass blades from fraying and the lawn from turning yellow.

Try to mow in straight lines for a nice, clean look. Insodoing, the mowing swaths should always overlap each other by a few centimeters in order to avoid bare strips.

Keep the underside of the mower housing clean and remove grass build-up. Deposits not only make it more difficult to start the mower; they decrease the quality of the cut and make it harder for the machine to bag the grass. Always mow along inclines (not up and down). Slightly turning the front wheels up the hill while mowing will prevent the mower from sliding out of the straight line. Select the cutting height according to the length of the grass. If the lawn has grown quite a bit, mow over it several times so that no more than 4 cm of grass are cut at one time.

Switch off the engine before doing any checks on the blade. Keep in mind that the blade continues to rotate for a few seconds after the engine has been switched off. Never attempt to manually stop the blade.

Regularly check to see if the blade is securely attached, is in good condition and is sharp. If the contrary is the case, sharpen the blade or replace it. In the event that the blade strikes an object, immediately switch off the lawn mower and wait for the blade to come to a complete stop. Then inspect the condition of the blade and the blade mount. Replace any parts that are damaged.

Tips for proper mowing:

1. Pay attention to ensure that you do not run into or over anything that could damage the mower. The lawn mower could be damaged and/or the machine could inflict bodily injury.

2. A hot engine, exhaust or drive unit can burn the skin if touched. Thus, do not touch these parts unless the mower has been switched off for a while and you know that they have cooled down!

3. Use extra caution when mowing on inclines and steep grades.
4. Insufficient daylight or even a sufficient level of artificial light is one reason not to mow.
5. Check the mower, the blade and other parts if they have struck a foreign object or if the machine vibrates more than usual.
6. Do not make any adjustments or repairs until the engine has been switched off. Pull the plug boot.
7. Pay special attention if you are mowing directly next to a street or are close by one (traffic). Always keep the grass chute pointed away from the street.
8. Avoid mowing in places where the wheels have trouble gripping or mowing is unsafe in any other way. Before you back up, ensure that nobody is standing behind you (especially little children, who are more difficult to see).
9. When mowing over thick, high grass, select the highest cutting level and mow at a slower speed. Before you remove any grass or blockages of any kind, switch off the engine and pull the plug boot.
10. Never remove any safety-related parts.
11. Never fill the engine with petrol when it is hot or is running.

7.4 Emptying the grass basket

As soon as grass clippings start to trail the lawn mower, it is time to empty the grass basket.

Important! Before taking off the grass basket, switch off the engine and wait until the blade has come to a stop.

To take off the grass basket, use one hand to lift up the chute flap and the other to grab onto the basket handle (Fig. 4). Remove the basket.

For safety reasons, the chute flap automatically falls down after removing the grass basket and closes off the rear chute opening. If any grass remains in the opening, it will be easier to restart the engine if you pull the mower back approx. 1 meter.

Do not use your hands or feet to remove clippings in or on the mower housing, but instead use suitable tools such as a brush or a hand broom.

In order to ensure that the majority of grass clippings are picked up, the inside of both the catch bag and especially the air grill must be cleaned after each use.

Reattach the catch bag only when the engine is switched off and the blade is stopped. Using one hand, lift up the chute flap, while grabbing onto the basket handle with the other. Hang in the basket from the top.

7.5 After mowing

1. Allow the engine to cool before you put the lawn mower in an enclosed area.
2. Remove grass, foliage, grease and oil before storing the mower. Do not place any objects on top of the mower.
3. Check all the screws and nuts once more before you start to use the lawn mower again. Tighten any loose screws.
4. Also be sure to empty the grass basket.
5. Pull the spark plug boot to prevent unauthorized use.
6. Ensure that you do not park the mower next to any source of danger. Petrol fumes can lead to explosions.
7. Only original parts or parts approved by the manufacturer may be used for repairs (see address on the warranty certificate).
8. If the lawn mower is not going to be used for an extended period, empty the petrol tank using a petrol suction pump.
9. Tell your children not to use the mower. It is not a toy.
10. Never place petrol near an ignition source. Always use a can that is approved to store petrol. Keep petrol away from children.
11. Oil and maintain the machine.

8. Cleaning, maintenance, storage, transport and ordering of spare parts

Important: The enclosed engine manual from Briggs & Stratton provides maintenance information and maintenance interval information on the engine.

Important:

Never work on or touch any current-conducting parts of the ignition system while the engine is running. Pull off the spark plug connector (Fig. 1/Item 6) from the spark plug before doing any maintenance or assembly work. Never carry out any work on the equipment while the engine is running. Work that is not described in these operating instructions should only be carried out by authorized workshops.

8.1 Cleaning

The lawn mower should be cleaned thoroughly every time after it has been used. This particularly applies to its underside and the blade mount.

Note: Before placing the lawn mower, fully drain the fuel tank using a petrol extraction pump. Do not tilt the lawn mower by more than 90 degrees. It is easier to remove dirt and grass immediately after mowing.

Dried grass remnants and dirt may impair the mowing operation. Check if the grass ejector chute is free of grass remnants and remove any if necessary. Never clean the mower using a water jet or a high-pressure cleaner. The engine must remain dry. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as cold cleaners or petroleum ether.

8.2 Maintenance

Important: The enclosed engine manual from Briggs & Stratton provides maintenance information and maintenance interval information on the engine.

Dispose of soiled maintenance material and media at the appropriate collection point

8.2.1 Wheel axles and wheel hubs

These should be lightly greased once a season. To do so, remove the wheel caps with a screwdriver and slacken the fastening screws on the wheels.

8.2.2 Blade

For safety reasons you should only ever have your blade sharpened, balanced and mounted by an authorized service workshop. For optimum results it is recommended that the blade should be inspected once a year.

Changing the blade (Fig. 8)

Only ever use original spare parts when having the blade replaced. The marking on the blade must be matched with the number given in the list of spare parts. Never have any other model of blade fitted.

Damaged blades

Should the blade, in spite of all precautions, come into contact with an obstruction, shut down the engine immediately and pull the spark plug boot. Tip the lawn mower onto its side and check the blade for damage. Damaged or bent blades must be replaced. Never attempt to bend a bent blade back to straight again. Never mow the lawn with a bent or heavily worn blade as this will cause vibrations and can lead to further damage to the lawn mower.

Important: There is a risk of injury if you work with a damaged blade.

Resharpening the blade

The blades can be resharpened with a metal file. In order to avoid imbalance, the blade should be resharpened by an authorized service workshop.

8.2.3 Care and adjustment of the cables

Oil the cables at regular intervals and check that they move easily.

8.2.4 Inspecting the V-belt

To inspect the V-belt you must remove the V-belt cover (Fig. 6/Item D).

8.2.5 Repairs

After any repair or maintenance work, check that all safety-related parts are in place and in proper working order.

All parts which may cause injury must be kept where they are inaccessible to children or others.

Important: In accordance with product liability legislation we are not liable for any damages caused by improper repairs or the use of spare parts that are not original spare parts or parts approved by us. In addition, we are also not liable for any damages arising from improper repairs. Such work should be performed by a customer services workshop or authorized specialist. The same applies to accessory parts.

8.2.6 Times of use

Lawn mowers are only permitted to be used on workdays between the hours of 7.00 a.m. and 7.00 p.m. Please comply with statutory regulations, which may vary from location to location.

8.3 Preparing the mower for long-term storage

Caution: Do not empty the petrol tank in enclosed areas, near fire or when smoking. Petrol fumes can cause explosions and fire.

1. Empty the petrol tank with a petrol suction pump.
2. Start the engine and let it run until any remaining petrol has been used up.
3. Be sure to clean the entire machine to protect the paint.
4. Store the equipment in a well-ventilated storage space or location.

Consequently, the guarantee is invalidated if the equipment is used in commercial, trade or industrial applications or for other equivalent activities. The following are also excluded from our guarantee: compensation for transport damage, damage caused by failure to comply with the installation/assembly instructions or damage caused by unprofessional installation, failure to comply with the operating instructions (e.g. connection to the wrong mains voltage or current type), misuse or inappropriate use (such as overloading of the device or use of non-approved tools or accessories), failure to comply with the maintenance and safety regulations, ingress of foreign bodies into the device (e.g. sand, stones or dust), effects of force or external influences (e.g. damage caused by the device being dropped) and normal wear resulting from proper operation of the device. This applies in particular to rechargeable batteries for which we nevertheless issue a guarantee period of 12 months.

The guarantee is rendered null and void if any attempt is made to tamper with the device.

1. The guarantee is valid for a period of 2 years starting from the purchase date of the device. Guarantee claims should be submitted before the end of the guarantee period within two weeks of the defect being noticed. No guarantee claims will be accepted after the end of the guarantee period. The original guarantee period remains applicable to the device even if repairs are carried out or parts are replaced. In such cases, the work performed or parts fitted will not result in an extension of the guarantee period, and no new guarantee will become active for the work performed or parts fitted. This also applies when an on-site service is used.

2. In order to assert your guarantee claim, please send your defective device postage-free to the address shown below. Please enclose either the original or a copy of your sales receipt or another dated proof of purchase. Please keep your sales receipt in a safe place, as it is your proof of purchase. It would help us if you could describe the nature of the problem in as much detail as possible. If the defect is covered by our guarantee then your device will either be repaired immediately and returned to you, or we will send you a new device.

Of course, we are also happy offer a chargeable repair service for any defects which are not covered by the scope of this guarantee or for units which are no longer covered. To take advantage of this service, please send the device to our service address.
