You can counteract the tendency of the mower to slide down
the slope by setting it at an angle upwards. Select the cutting
height to suit the actual length of the grass. Make several
passes to ensure that you do not remove more than 4 cm of
grass length in any one pass.
Switch off the motor before you carry out any inspections of
the blade. Remember than the blade will continue to turn for
a few seconds after the motor has been switched off. Never
attempt to stop the blade.
Check regularly that the blade is correctly secured, in good
condition and well ground. If not, grind or replace the blade.
If the moving blade strikes an object, stop the mower and
wait until the blade has come to a complete standstill. Then
check the condition of the blade and the blade holder. If they
are damaged, they must be replaced.
Place the mains lead in loops on the ground in front of the
socket. Mow away from the socket and cable and ensure that
the mains lead is always on the section of lawn that you have
already mowed so that you do not run over the mains lead
with the mower.
Mowing
As soon as you see mown grass on the lawn whilst you are
mowing, the grass bag will need emptying.
Important!
Before you remove the grass bag switch off the
motor and wait until the cutting tool reaches a standstill.
To remove the grass bag, raise the discharge flap with one
hand and remove the grass bag using its handle with your
other hand.
To maintain safety, the discharge flap will close when you
remove the grass back to seal the rear discharge opening.
If any grass residues are caught in the opening, it is a good
idea to pull the mower backwards around 1 m to make it
easier to start the motor.
