• Run the equipment only at walking speed.

• Take particular care when turning the equipment around or pulling it towards you.

• Stop the cutting tool if the equipment has to be tipped up for transportationGB

over a surface other than grass and when moving the equipment from and to the surface to be mown.

• Do not use the equipment with dam- aged safety equipment or guards or with no safety equipment attached, e.g. impact protection and/or grass catchers. This ensures that the equip- ment remains safe.

• Do not change the engine regulator setting and do not over-rev it. This may damage the equipment.

• Before starting, the engine, disengage all cutting tools and drives.

• Start or operate the start switch with care and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure su󰀩cient space between feet and the cutting tool. Risk of injury.

• When starting or activating the en- gine, do not tip the equipment unless the equipment has to be lifted for this procedure. In this case, tip the equipment only as far as is absolutely necessary and lift only the side that is away from the user.

• Do not start the engine when standing in front of the ejection channel.

• Switch on the engine in accordance with the instructions and only if your feet are a safe distance away from the cutting tools.

• Do not place hands or feet under ro- tating parts. Always keep away from the ejection opening. A moment of carelessness when using the equip- ment may result in serious injury.

• Do not leave or carry the equipment when the engine is running.

• Switch o󰀨 the engine, take out the spark plug connector and ensure that all moving parts are still: - Before releasing blockages or re- moving obstructions in the ejection channel; - Before checking, cleaning or work- ing on the equipment; - If a foreign body is struck. Look for damage to the equipment and carry out the necessary repairs before re- starting and working with the equip- ment; - If the equipment starts to vibrate unusually strongly, an immediate check is required.

• Switch o󰀨 the engine - When leaving the equipment; - Before refuelling;

• Close the throttle valve when stopping the engine.

• Do not leave the equipment unat- tended in the workplace.

• Do not work with equipment that is damaged or incomplete or has been converted without the approval of the manufacturer. Using machines for applications other than those intended may result in dan- gerous situations.

• Do not work with the device if there is a risk of lightning strike. Danger of electric shock. Maintenance and storage:

• Ensure that all nuts, bolts and screws are tightened rmly and the equip- ment is in safe working condition. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained equipment.

• Do not keep the equipment with petrol in the tank inside a building in which petrol fumes could potentially come into contact with open re or sparks.

• Allow the engine to cool before plac- ing the equipment in enclosed spaces. Risk of re.

• To avoid the risk of re, keep the en- gine, exhaust and area around theGB

fuel tank free of grass, leaves or leak- ing grease (oil).

• Check the grass catcher regularly for wear or loss of function.

• For reasons of safety, replace worn or damaged parts. Replace defective silencers.

• If the fuel tank is to be drained, do this outdoors.

• Handle your equipment with care. Keep the tools sharp and clean to ena- ble you to work better and more safely. Follow the maintenance directions.

The correct cutting height is around 25 – 45 mm for an ornamental lawn and around 40 – 65 mm for a utility lawn. Select a greater cutting height for the rst cut of the season. Operation Some level of noise emission with this equipment is unavoidable. Postpone noisy work until desig- nated periods when it is permitted. Take rest periods when needed and limit working time to the minimum necessary. For your personal pro- tection and the protection of people working nearby a suitable form of hearing protection must be worn. Warning! Petrol is ammable. Start the engine at least 3 m away from the lling location. Start the equipment on a sturdy, level base, if possible not in long grass. Ensure that the cutting tool is touching neither objects nor the ground. For your safety: Stand behind the device when starting it. Regularly check petrol and oil level (see „Initial Operation“) and rell in due time. Starting and stopping the engine Cold start:

1. Press the fuel pump (10) (Primer)

2. Pull the safety catch (2) towards

the handle bar (1) and hold it.GB

4. When the engine starts, allow the

starter handle to slowly slide back into the starter cable guide (23). For a warm start it is not neces- sary to press the primer ( 10). If the primer is pressed too often, too much petrol will enter the car- burettor and the motor is di󰀩cult to start. Stopping the engine:

• Release the safety loop (2). The motor switches o󰀨 and the knife is braked. Regularly examine the knife stopping device: Release the safety loop (2). The motor switches o󰀨 and the knife is braked. The knife must stop within 7 seconds. Mowing

On: Pull the drive catch (25) towards the handle bar (1). The mower moves forwards. O󰀨: Release the drive catch (25). The equipment stops. Working instructions General working instructions

• As far as possible, mow the lawn when it is dry in order to protect the turf.

• Set the cutting height such that the equipment is not overloaded.

• Run the equipment at walking speed in lines that are as straight as pos- sible. For uninterrupted mowing, the lines should always overlap by a few centimetres.

• Do not move backwards.

• On slopes, always work across the slope.

• If the blade comes into contact with a foreign body, switch o󰀨 the engine immediately. Wait until the blade is stationary and check the equipment for damage. Restart work only if the equipment is undamaged.

• Switch o󰀨 the equipment during long- er breaks and for transportation and wait until the blade is stationary.

• Clean the equipment after each use, as described in the “cleaning and maintenance“ chapter. Difference between moving and mulching lawns When using the mulch kit (26), the grass clippings are not captured in a collection box but are instead shredded and spread across the lawn. The nutrients contained in the clippings are thus left to be broken down by soil organisms and form a nutri- ent cycle. Mulched lawns therefore need to be fertilised much less frequently. As a basic rule, the lawn has to be mowed relatively often so that only small amounts of mulch remain on the lawn. It is therefore best to mulch the lawn at least once a week and to adjust the mower so that only about 40% of the total height of the lawn is left as mulch. If the mulch remains visible on the lawn (for example when cutting the lawn for the rst time of the year or during strong growth), the grass collection box (22) should be used.GB

Cleaning and maintenance Have any repair and mainte- nance work not described in these instructions carried out by a specialist workshop. Use only original replacement parts. Risk of accidents! Carry out maintenance and cleaning work strictly with the engine switched o󰀨 and spark plug connectors removed. Risk of injury! Allow the equipment to cool before any maintenance and cleaning work. Elements of the engine are hot. Risk of burning! Wear gloves when handling the blade. Cleaning and maintenance work on the underside of the appliance: Place an underlay under the petrol lawnmower. Do not tilt the equipment sideways or forwards. Operating uids could leak out and the engine could be damaged. Make sure that a second person holds the device because there is a danger of tipping backwards.

3. Unhook the starter handle and

4. Release the quick-release

levers ( 3) and fold up the handlebar (1). When folding up, make sure that the Bowden cables ( 5) do not get caught and jammed.

5. Tilt the device back.

• Always keep the equipment clean. To clean, use a toothbrush or cloth but no corrosive cleaning agents or solvents. Do not use water to clean the engine as it could contaminate the fuel system.

• To clean the blade housing, it is possi- ble to connection a hose to the upper side of the housing (see 33).

• After mowing, remove plant remains that are stuck to the equipment by us- ing a piece of wood or plastic. Clean the vent holes, ejection hole and blade area especially. Do not use hard or pointed objects, which could dam- age the equipment.

• Oil the wheels from time to time.

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

• Check covers and guards ( 2, 9, 15, 16, 21, 27) for damage and that they are sitting correctly. Re- place if necessary.
