Mowing Advice
Before you connect the equipment to the main supply, make sure that the data on the rating plate
corresponds to your main supply.
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
anti-slip 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 hover mower. Never pull the hover mower
backwards when the motor is running.
Cut your grass twice a week during the growing season. Your lawn will be damaged if more than a
third of its length is cut at one time.
Keep the under side of the mower casing clean and remove all grass deposits from it. Deposits
make it more difficult to start the mower and also adversely affect the mowing quality and the
grass collection. Switch off the motor before you carry out any inspections of the cutting head.
Remember that the cutting head will continue to turn for a few seconds after the motor has been
switched off. Never attempt to stop the cutting head.
The cutting system must be kept in good condition and inspected before and after use. Switch off
the motor before you carry out any inspections of the cutting system. Remember that the cutting
head will continue to turn for a few seconds after the motor has been switched off. Never attempt
to stop the cutting head.
Check plastic cutters for wear and replace when necessary. Plastic cutters should be straight.
Replace if bent or twisted.
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.
IMPORTANT!
Always ensure the on/off switch is working correctly. Do not use if you
suspect a fault. Before you perform any repair or maintenance work on the
machine, ensure that the plastic cutter is not rotating and that the power
supply is disconnected.
