5. Before starting the equipment
The lawn mower is delivered partly assembled.
The push bar and the grass basket must be as-
sembled before using the lawn mower. Follow the
instructions step by step and refer to the pictures
when assembling.
Mounting the push bar (Fig. 3 to 5)
Start by fastening the lower push bars for the left-
hand side (Fig. 3/Item 10) and the right-hand side
(Fig. 3/Item 11) to the mower housing using the
fastening screws (Fig. 3/Item 12). The upper push
bar then has to be slid onto the lower push bars
and fastened with screws (Fig. 4/Item 13). There
are 2 di
Ů
erent holes on each of the lower push
bars for this, to enable the height of the push bar
to be adjusted to the height of the user. Then fas-
ten the power cable to the push bar with the cable
clips (Fig. 5/Item 14).
Mounting the catch basket (see Fig. 6)
Before you
Þ
t the catch basket you must ensure
that the motor is switched o
Ů
and the blade is not
rotating. Lift the ejector ß ap (Fig. 6/Item 6) with
one hand. With the other hand, hold the catch
basket by the handle and hook it in from above
(Fig. 6).
Filling level indicator of the grass collector
The grass box is equipped with a Þ lling level in-
dicator (Fig. 1/Item 15). which is opened by the
air
ß ow that the lawn mower generates during ope-
ration. If the ß ap closes during mowing, the grass
collecting device is full and must be emptied. To
ensure the proper functioning of the
Þ lling level
indicator, the holes under the
ß
ap must always be
kept clean and passable.
Adjusting the cutting height
Caution!
Adjust the cutting height only when the machine
has been switched o
Ů
and the safety plug has
been pulled out.
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. To carry out this
check,
Þ
rst switch o
Ů
the motor and pull out the
safety plug.
The cutting height is adjusted as follows (see Fig.
7):
1. Push the lever (5) downwards.
2. Set the lever (5) to the desired cutting height.
3. Release the lever (5) and check that it is se-
curely seated in the lock.
Reading o
Ů
the cutting height
The cutting height can be set between 25-65 mm
in 5 intervals, and can be read o
Ů
on the scale.
Charging the battery (Fig. 8)
1. Take the battery pack out of the equipment.
Do this by pressing the side pushlock buttons.
2. Check that your mains voltage is the same as
that marked on the rating plate of the battery
charger. Insert the power plug of the charger
(9) into the socket outlet. The green LED will
then begin to
ß ash.
3. Insert the battery pack (8) into the battery
charger (9).
4. In the section entitled „Charger indicator“ you
will Þ nd a table with an explanation of the LED
indicator on the charger.
The battery pack can become a little warm during
the charging. This is normal.
If the battery pack fails to charge, check:
•
whether there is voltage at the socket outlet
•
whether there is good contact at the charging
contacts
If the battery pack still fails to charge, send
•
the charging unit
•
and the battery pack
to our customer service center.
To ensure that the battery pack provides long ser-
vice, you should take care to recharge it promptly.
You must recharge the battery pack when you
notice that the performance of the device drops.
Never allow the battery pack to become fully di-
scharged. This will cause it to develop a defect.
Installing the battery (Fig. 9-10)
Open the battery cover. This is done by pulling
the snap fastener (Item A) as shown in Fig. 9 and
swinging up the cover. Then insert the two batte-
ries in the mounts as shown in Fig. 10.
