Operate the mower
Mowing Direction
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 anti-
slip soles that offer good grip, and suitable long trousers.
Always mow across the slope (not in an up or down direction).
For safety reasons, do not use the mower on gradients
exceeding 15°.
Take special care when moving backwards and pulling the
lawn mower. Never pull the mower backwards when the
motor is running.
• Place the mains lead in loops on the ground near the wall
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 (Fig. 12). The blades can cause
damage to the power cord if contact is made and
risk electrocution.

collection box is full and needs to be emptied (no airflow
through the grass collection box) (Fig. 14).
