5. Before starting the equipment
Before you connect the equipment to the mains
supply make sure that the data on the rating plate
are identical to the mains data.
Warning!
Always pull the power plug before making
adjustments to the equipment.
The lawn mower is delivered unassembled. The
complete push bar and the grass basket must be
assembled before using the lawn mower. Follow
the operating instructions step-by-step and use
the pictures provided as a visual guide to easily
assemble the equipment.
Fitting the wheels (Fig. 3a and b)
Take a rear wheel (Fig. 2/Item 11) and push it
onto the axle as shown in Fig. 3a. Then slide a
washer (Fig. 2/Item 15) onto the axle and fasten
all parts with the supplied split pin (Fig. 2/Item 14)
as shown in Fig. 3a. Finally, press the wheel cap
(Fig. 2/Item 12) onto the wheel as shown in Fig.
3b. Proceed in exactly the same way on the other
side.
Mounting the push bar (Fig. 4 to 7).
Mount a bottom push bar (Fig. 2/Item 2) onto the
screw provided for it and secure everything with
a wing nut (Fig. 2/Item 13) as shown in Fig. 4.
Proceed in the same way on the other side. When
you
fi
t the top push bar you can decide the height
of the push bar by selecting the appropriate fas-
tening hole (Fig. 5). Finally, secure the top push
bar to the bottom push bar as shown in Fig. 6.
Now you can attach the motor cable to the push
bar (Fig. 7/Item A) using the cable clips (Fig. 2/
Item 16).
Mounting the grass basket
(see Figs. 8a and b)
Press the grass box handle (Fig. 8a/Item 21)
into the grass basket as shown in Fig. 8a. Before
you
fi
t the grass basket you must ensure that the
motor is switched o
ff
and the blade is not rotating.
Lift the ejector
fl
ap (Fig. 8b/Item 3) with one hand.
With the other hand, hold the grass basket by the
handle and hook it in from above (Fig. 8b).
Filling level indicator of the grass collector
The grass collector is equipped with a
fi
lling level
indicator (Fig. 1/Item 7) which is opened by the
air
fl
ow that the lawn mower generates during
operation. If the
fl
ap closes during mowing,
the grass collecting device is full and must be
emptied. To ensure the proper functioning of the
fi
lling level indicator, the holes under the
fl
ap must
always be kept clean and passable.
Adjusting the cutting height
Important!
Adjust the cutting height only when the motor is
switched o
ff
and the power cable has been dis-
connected.
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. To carry out this
check,
fi
rst switch o
ff
the motor and pull out the
power plug.
The cutting height is adjusted as follows
(see Fig. 9):
1. Push the lever inwards.
2. Set the lever to the desired cutting height.
3. Release the lever and check that it is securely
seated in the lock.
Reading o
ff
the cutting height
The cutting height can be set between 20-65 mm
in 6 intervals, and can be read o
ff
on the scale.
Power supply
The lawn mower can be connected to any light
socket-outlet with a 230-240 Volt alternating
current. However, the socket outlet must have an
earthing contact protected by a 16 A circuit brea-
ker. Additionally, a residual current device (RCD)
circuit-breaker with max. 30 mA must be used!
Power cable for the device
Please only use power cables that are not dama-
ged. The total length of the power cable should
not exceed 50 meters; going beyond this distance
will reduce the power output of the electric motor.
The power cable must have a cross-section of
3 x 1,5 mm
2
. The insulating sheath of lawn aerator
power cables is frequently damaged.
Some of the causes for this are:
•
Cuts caused by driving over the cable.
•
Pinching when the power cable is dragged
under doors and pulled through windows.
•
Cracking due to old age of the insulation.
•
Kinking by improperly fastening or guiding the
power cable.
