- MOWING PROCEDURE The key to successful electric lawn mowing is a systematic approach to cutting.

Take a few moments to plan your first cut using the principles described here.

After one or two uses you will find the simplest way of cutting your own particular lawn.

1. Lay cord on ground near outlet in neat, loose coils with mower end of cord on top. It is important to arrange cord systematically to avoid annoying loops and knots.
2. Starting at point nearest electrical outlet, move back and forth across lawn.
3. Each lawn with its trees, shrubs, and other obstructions requires a different mowing procedure. A little experimenting will enable you to choose the easiest method of handling the cord on your lawn.

1. When the grass box is full. Switch off, disconnect the mower from mains supply and wait until blade has come to standstill.
2. Take the handgrip of collection box (13)
3. Lift the grass box backwards.
4. Empty the grass box
