OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS AND TIPS
OPERATION
Before you connect the mower to the mains supply make sure that the data on the rating plate is identical
to the mains data. Connect the plug to an extension cable if necessary. It is imperative to secure the
extension cable to the handle with the cable grip as shown in Figure 5a.
IMPORTANT!
To prevent the machine switching on accidentally, the lawn mower is equipped
with a safety lock—off A which must be pressed before switch lever B can be activated. The lawn mower
switches itself off when the switch is released.
Repeat this process a couple times so that you are sure that the machine functions properly. Before you
perform any repair or maintenance work on the machine, ensure that the blade is not rotating and that
the power supply is disconnected.
IMPORTANT!
Never lift the grass deflector if the motor is still running. The rotating blade can
cause serious injuries.
Always ensure box and grass de
fl
ector flap are undamaged and correctly fitted. Always switch off the
motor before removing the grass box.
A safe distance between the blade deck and the user is provided by the length of the handle. This distance
must be maintained at all times. Take special care when mowing and changing direction on embankments
and slopes. Ensure that you have a secure surface to stand on, wear shoes with antieslip soles that offer
good grip, and long trousers. Always mow across the slope (not in up or down direction).
Do not use the mower on gradients exceeding 15° for safety reasons.
Take special care when moving backwards and pulling the lawn mower. Never pull the mower backwards
when the motor is running
