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). 7 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)
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.
•
In order to avoid any unintentional start-ups of the
lawn mower, it comes equipped with an engine
brake (Fig. 1/ Item 3) which must be pulled back
before the engine can be started. When the engine
control lever is released it must return to its initial
position, at which point the engine automatically
switches off.
•
Press the engine brake lever (3) together and give
the starter cord (17) a vigorous pull. (Fig. 14)

ting blade rotates even when dissolved motor brake
lever.
Make sure that there are no body parts in danger
zone of cutting blade.
•
When the engine is running, press the drive lever
(2) to the handle (1) in order to engage drive on the
mower.

Before you start mowing, you should run through
this operation several times in order to ensure that
the machine is working properly.
