check the start/stop lever several times to be
sure that it is working properly. Ensure that the
tension cable can be smoothly operated (i.e. is
not catching or kinking in any way).
2. Drive lever (clutch lever) (Fig. 5a/Item 3):
If you press this (Fig. 5c) the clutch for the drive
will be closed and the lawnmower will start to
move with the motor running.
Release the drive lever in good time to stop the
moving lawnmower. Practice starting and
stopping before you use the mower for the first
time until you are familiar with controlling the
mower.
3. Caution: The blade begins to rotate as soon as
the engine is started.
Important:
Before you start the engine, move the motor
brake several times to be sure that the stop
cable is properly working.
Note: The engine is factory set to a speed that is
optimal for cutting and blowing grass into the
basket and is designed to provide many years of
use.
4. Check the oil level.
5. Fill the tank with petrol when it is empty, using a
funnel and measuring vessel. Make sure that the
petrol is clean.
Warning: Never use more than one safety petrol
can. Do not smoke when refueling. Switch off the
engine before refueling and allow the engine to cool
down for a few minutes.
Grass box filling level indicator
The grass box is equipped with a filling level indicator
(Fig. 10) which is pushed upwards by the airflow that
the lawn mower generates during operation. If the flag
drops during mowing, the grass box is full and should
be emptied.
7.1 Before mowing
Important information
1. Make sure that you are properly dressed when
mowing. Wear sturdy, non-slip footwear; do not
wear sandals or tennis shoes.
2. Inspect the blade. A blade that is bent or
damaged in any other way must be immediately
exchanged for a genuine Einhell replacement
blade.
3. Do not fill the fuel tank indoors, but rather out in
the open. Use a filling funnel and a measuring
jug. Wipe off any spilled petrol.
4. Read and follow in the instructions in the
operating manual as well as the information
regarding the engine and accessory equipment.
Store the manual in a place where it can be
readily accessed by other users of the machine.
5. Exhaust gas is dangerous. Only start the engine
out in the open.
6. Make sure that all the guards are fitted and that
they are in good working order.
7. The machine should only be operated by
persons who are well informed with the way it
works, and who are in reasonably good physical
condition.
8. It can be dangerous to mow the grass when it is
wet. Try to ensure that you only mow the grass
when it is dry.
9. Advise children and others to keep well away
from the lawn mower.
10. Never mow the grass in poor visibility.
11. Remove all loose objects from the lawn before
you start mowing the grass.
7.2 Tips for proper mowing
Important! Never open the chute flap when the
catch bag has been detached (to be emptied) and
the engine is still running. The rotating blade can
cause serious injuries!
Always carefully fasten the chute flap and grass
basket. Switch off the engine before emptying the
grass basket.
Always ensure that a safe distance (provided by the
length of the long handles) is maintained between
the user and the mower housing. Be especially
careful when mowing and changing direction on
slopes and inclines. Maintain a solid footing and
wear sturdy, non-slip footwear and long trousers.
Always mow along the incline (not up and down).
For safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be used
to mow inclines whose gradient exceeds 15 degrees.
Use special caution when backing up and pulling the
lawn mower. Tripping hazard!
7.3 Mowing
Only use a sharp blade that is in good condition. This
will prevent the grass blades from fraying and the
lawn from turning yellow.
Try to mow in straight lines for a nice, clean look.
Insodoing, the mowing swaths should always overlap
each other by a few centimeters in order to avoid
bare strips.
Keep the underside of the mower housing clean and
remove grass build-up. Deposits not only make it
more difficult to start the mower; they decrease the
