47 Disconnect the plug from the power supply:
•
whenever you leave the mower.
•
if the mower starts to suffer unusual vibrations (check
immediately).
Proper use
Power connection
The lawn mower can be connected to any socket (with 230 V
alternating current). However, only use a socket with an earth
connection protected by a cable protection switch for 16 A
and an RCCB with max. 30 mA.
Additionally, a residual current device (RCD) circuitbreaker
with max. 30 mA must be used!
Mower mains lead
Only use a mower mains lead that is in perfect condition.
The mains lead must not exceed a certain length (max. 50m),
since otherwise the power of the electric motor will fall. The
mains lead must have a cross-section of 3 x 1.5mm2. Mains
leads on lawn mowers are particularly susceptible to
insulation damage.
The causes of this include the following:
•
Cutting the cable by passing over it with the mower
•
Damage through crushing if the mains lead is routed
under doors or windows
•
Cracks caused by ageing of the insulation sheath
•
Kinks caused by incorrect fastening or routing of the
mains lead.
Such damaged mains leads should not be used under any
circumstances as they may cause fatal injuries due to their
damaged insulation sheath. Cables, plugs and connection
sockets must satisfy the conditions listed below. Mains
leads for connecting lawn mowers must have rubber
insulation sheaths.
