Area of Cut (Battery Duration)
The area of cut (battery duration) depends on lawn condi-
tions, grass density, mositure content, grass length and
height of cut.
Switching the machine on and off frequently during cutting
will also reduce the area of cut (battery duration).
To improve the area of cut (battery duration) it is recommend-
ed to cut more frequently, raise the cutting height and walk at
a normal pace.
The example below shows impact of conditions against run
time, when using the machine with two batteries.
To increase the run time an additional battery or higher capac-
ity battery (Ah) can be purchased from an authorised custom-
er service agent for Bosch garden products.
