3. Attach the upper push bar on the lower push bar

5. Fix the cables to the push bar with the cable clips
(18) provided (Fig. 7).
6. Grass box (16) - open it up and click the plastic

7. Mowing with grass box:
Lift the discharge flap (15) with one hand and
hang the grass box (16) as shown in Fig. 9.
8. Mulching:
If the grass box (16) is attached, remove it and
replace it with the mulch insert (19) as shown in
Fig. 10-12.
Setting the cutting height
m
CAUTION!
Adjust the cutting height only when the engine is
switched off and the plug boot has been pulled.
• 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 as a set only (if applicable). To
carry out this check, first switch off the engine and
pull the spark plug boot.
• The cutting height is centrally adjusted with the cut -
ting height adjustor lever (Fig.13/ Item 14). 5 differ -
ent cutting heights can be selected.
• Pull the adjustor lever out and select the desired
cutting height. The lever snaps into the desired po
-
sition. (Fig. 13)
Preparing the area to be mowed
Before mowing, carefully examine the area. Remove
stones, sticks, bones, wires, toys and other objects
that may be ejected.
8. Operation
m
CAUTION!
The engine does not come with oil in it. There-
fore, ensure that you add 0,45 liters of oil before
starting it up. Use normal, multigrade oil (SAE30).
The oil level in the engine must be checked each
time before mowing.
You will also need to fill in petrol, as this is also
not supplied upon delivery.
Reduce noise generation and vibration to a minimum!
• Use only equipment that is in perfect condition.
• Maintain and clean the equipment regularly.
• Adopt your way of working to the equipment.
• Do not overload the equipment.
• Have the equipment checked if necessary.
• Switch off the equipment when not in use.
• Wear gloves.
When using the petrol lawn mower for extended peri -
ods, vibration-induced circulatory problems may oc -
cur (white finger disease).
We cannot give exact details about the duration of
use in this case because it is different for each indi-
vidual.
The following factors can influence the condition:
• Circulatory problems in the user’s hands
• Low outside temperatures
• Extended periods of use
We therefore recommend you wear warm work gloves
and take regular breaks.
7. Before first use
Assembling the components
Some parts of the mower come disassembled. For
quick and easy assembly, read and follow the instruc
-
tions below.
Important! You will need the following additional tools
(not supplied) for assembly, and also for maintenance
work:
• A 1 liter measuring jug (oil/petrol resistant)
• A petrol can (5 liters is sufficient for approx. 6 op -
erating hours)
• A funnel (suitable for the tankʼs petrol filler neck)
• Household wipes (to wipe up oil/petrol residue; dis -
pose of these at a filling station)
• A petrol suction pump (plastic, available from DIY
stores)
• An oil can with hand pump (available from DIY
stores)
• 0,35 liter of engine oil (SAE 30)
Assembly
1. Take the mower and attachment parts out of the
packaging and check that all parts are present.
2. Attach the lower push bar to both sides of the
mower with one screw (a), 1 washer small (c), 1
