Never allow the battery pack to become fully
discharged. This will cause it to develop a defect.
6.3 Filling level indictor of the grass catcher
(Figure 9 & 10)
The grass catcher is equipped with a filling level
indicator (Fig. 9/Item 4) which is opened by the
airflow that the lawn mower generates during
operation. If the flap closes during mowing (Fig. 10),
the grass catcher is full and must be emptied.
To ensure the proper functioning of the filling level
indicator, the holes under the flap must always be
kept clean and permeable.

7.1 Starting the Lawn Mower
Important.
The lawn mower is equipped with a safety
circuit to prevent unauthorised use. Directly
before starting up the lawn mower insert the
safety plug (Figure 8/Item 15) and remove the
safety plug again whenever you interrupt or
terminate your work.
To prevent the equipment switching on accidentally,
the lawn mower is equipped with a safety lock-off
(Figure 1/Item 2) which must be pressed before the
ON/OFF handle (Figure 1/Item 1) can be activated.
The lawn mower switches itself off when the ON/OFF
handle is released (Fig.1/Item 1). Repeat this process
several times so that you are sure that the equipment
functions properly.
Before you perform any repair or maintenance work
on the equipment, ensure that the blade is not
rotating and that the safety plug is disconnected.
Important. Never open the ejector flap when the
grass cacher has been detached (to be emptied)
and the motor is still running. A rotating blade
can cause serious injuries
!
Always carefully fasten the ejector flap and grass
catcher. Switch off the motor before emptying the
grass catcher. Always ensure that a safe distance
(provided by the length of the long handles) is
maintained between the user and the mower
housing. Be especially careful when mowing and
changing direction on slopes and inclines.
Maintain a solid footing and wear sturdy, non-slip
footwear and long trousers.
Always mow along the incline (not up and down). For
safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be used to
mow inclines whose gradient exceeds 15 degrees.
Use special caution when backing up and pulling the
lawn mower. Tripping hazard!
Cleaning, Maintenance and

Pull the safety plug before carrying out any
cleaning work (Figure 8/Item 15).
8.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
•
Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow
it down with compressed air at low pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the equipment
immediately after you use it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a damp
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning
agents or solvents; these may be aggressive
to the plastic parts in the equipment. Ensure
that no water can get into the interior of the
equipment.
•
Do not clean the lawn mower with running
water, particularly with high-pressure water.
•
At the end of the season, perform a general
inspection of the lawn mower and remove any
grass and dirt which may have accumulated.
•
At the start of each season, ensure that you
check the condition of the blade. If repairs are
necessary, please contact our customer service
centre on 1300 922 271.
8.2 Servicing
•
Ensure that all mounting components (i.e.
screws, bolts, nuts etc.) are always tightened so
that the equipment can be safely operated at
all times.
•
Frequently check the grass catch assembly for
signs of wear.
•
Replace excessively worn or damaged parts
immediately.
•
In order to ensure that you enjoy your
equipment for many years to come, all screwed
parts, as well as the wheels and axles, should be
cleaned and lubricated.
•
There are no parts inside the equipment which
require additional maintenance.
8.3 Replacing the blade
•
The cutting components - i.e. the knife cage and
lower knife blade - are subjected to more wear
and tear than any other component of the unit.
Therefore, routinely check the condition of the
blade and make sure that it is tightly fastened.
If the blade is completely worn out, it must be
immediately replaced or ground sharp again.
An excessively vibrating mower means that the
blade is not properly balanced or has become
deformed from striking an object. In this case,
the blade must be repaired or replaced.
•
For safety reasons, we recommend having the
blade replaced by an authorised professional.
