7.2 Level indicator
The upper part of the grass catcher
box features a level indicator (1).
The flow of air that is created by the rotary
movement of the mowing blade and is
responsible for filling the grass catcher box
raises the level indicator (2):
The grass catcher box is filled with
clippings.
When the grass catcher box is full, this
flow of air is reduced and the level
indicator drops (3):
● Empty filled grass catcher box (
Ö
10.5).
7.3 Handlebar
1 Folding down the upper handlebar:
Transport position – for space-saving
transport and storage:
● Unscrew rotary handles (1) until they
can be moved freely and fold down
upper handlebar (2) forwards. Make
sure that the electric cable is not
damaged.
Working position – for pushing the
machine:
● Fold up upper handlebar (2) rearwards
and hold with one hand.
● Tighten rotary handles (1).
2 Height adjustment:
The upper handlebar can be installed at
2 heights:
● Remove rotary handles (1) and remove
screws (3).
● Adjust upper handlebar (2) to the
desired height:

● Insert screws (3) through bores in lower
and upper handlebars, tighten rotary
handles (1).
7.4 Central cutting height

8. 1 General
To ensure a perfect, thick lawn, mow
regularly and keep the grass short.
Do not cut the lawn too short in hot, dry
conditions as it will dry out or burn in the
sun and become unsightly.
The cutting pattern will be better with a
sharp blade than with a blunt one; the
blade should therefore be sharpened
regularly (VIKING specialist dealer).
8.2 Correct motor load
Do not switch on the lawn mower in tall
grass or at the lowest cutting height.
The lawn mower load must never cause
the motor speed to drop significantly.
If the speed drops, select a higher cutting
height setting and/or reduce the rate of
feed.
Danger of pinching!
The upper handlebar can fold down
when the rotary handles are
released. For this reason, always
hold the upper handlebar (2) with
one hand at its highest point when
you loosen the rotary handles.

8. Notes on working with the
machine
Risk of injury!
Untangle any knots in the cable
immediately.
Guide the electric cable behind you
when mowing. Electric cables can
be inadvertently cut when mowing
and present a tripping hazard. They
therefore involve a high accident
risk. For this reason, mow so that
the electric cable is always visible
in the area of grass that has already
been cut.
