Adjusting the Cut Height Switch off the equipment, discon-nect the plug and wait for the blade to stop. There is a risk of injury.The electric lawnmower can be adjusted to the following cutting heights with three po-sition changes of the front and rear axles:60 mm - Tall cutting height40 mm - Medium cutting height20 mm - Short cutting heightAdjust the axles one by one. The same cutting height must be set for the front and rear axles in order to achieve an accurate result.

1. Place the lawnmower on its side. 2. Grasp the wheel axle on both sides. 3. Pull evenly on the axle and let it snap into the desired position.The correct height is around 20 – 40 mm for a decorative lawn and around 40 – 60 mm for a used lawn. A higher cut height should be se-lected for the rst cut of the season. Observe the noise protection and local regulations.29 IEGB Switching On and Off

1. Connect the power plug of the exten-

sion cord to the power plug (

2. To relieve the strain, form a loop with

the end of the power cable and hang this into the strain relief (11). See the de- tailed image in Figure

3. Connect the equipment to the power

4. Before switching on, ensure that the

equipment is not in contact with any objects.

5. To switch on, press the release button

(10) on the handgrip. Hold down the release button and press the start lever (12). You can now let go of the release button (10).

6. To switch off, release the start lever (12).

After switching off the equipment, the blade continues to turn for sev- eral seconds. Do not touch the mov- ing blade. There is a risk of injury. Working with the Lawnmower Regular mowing encourages increased foli- ation of the grass and kills off weeds at the same time. Therefore, not only does each mowing increase the density of the lawn, it also produces an evenly resilient lawn. The rst cut is to be made in around April, at a growth height of 70 – 80 mm. In the main vegetation period, the lawn is to be mowed at least once a week.

• Start mowing near the socket and work away from the socket.

• Always keep the extension cable be- hind you and when you turn, move it to the side that has already been mowed.

• Run the equipment at a walking pace, in tracks that are as even as possible. For gap-free mowing, the tracks should always overlap by a few centimetres.

• Adjust the cut height so the equipment is not overloaded. Otherwise, the mo- tor may be damaged.

• On slopes, always work across the slope. Take particular care when going backwards and pulling the equipment.

• The carrying handle (

used to transport the electric lawnmow- er.

• Clean the equipment after each use, as described in the chapter on “Cleaning, Maintenance and Storage”. Switch off the equipment after work and in order to transport it, discon- nect the plug and wait until the blade stops. There is a risk of injury. Cleaning, Maintenance and Storage Have work that is not described in these instructions carried out by a customer service centre that we have authorised. Use only original parts. Wear gloves when handling the blade. Switch off the equipment before all maintenance and cleaning work, disconnect the plug and wait until the blade stops. There is a risk of injury.30 IEGB General Cleaning and Maintenance Work Do not hose down the lawnmower with water.

• Always keep the equipment clean. To clean, use a brush or cloth but no de- tergent or solvent.

• After mowing, use a piece of wood or plastic to remove adherent plant remains from the wheels, ventilation holes, ejection hole and blade area. Do not use hard or pointed objects, as these may damage the blade.

• Before each use, check the lawnmower for obvious defects such as loose, worn or damaged parts. Check that all nuts, bolts and screws are sitting rmly.

• Check the covers and protective de- vices for damage and check that they are sitting correctly. Replace them if necessary.

Changing the Blade If the blade is blunt, it can be sharpened by a specialist workshop. If the blade is dam- aged or showing signs of imbalance, it must be replaced (see chapter on “Spare Parts”).

1. Turn the equipment over.

2. Use sturdy gloves and hold the blade

(18) rmly. Turn the blade screw (17) anticlockwise off of the motor spindle (19) using a screw.

3. Install the new blade (18) in the reverse

order. Ensure that the blade (18) is positioned correctly and the screw (17) tightened rmly. The Groove of the blade (18) must be planned with the surveys of the motor spindle (19). Storage

• Keep the equipment dry and out of reach of children. Loosen the wing nuts (2) and fold down the handle bar (1) so the equipment takes up less space. Ensure that the cable is not caught.
