Mowing
WARNING!
Always observe the strictest safety procedures when using the
lawnmower. Carefully read the safety instructions of this manual before using the
lawnmower.
WARNING!
Never open the safety flap when the grass bag has been detached (to be
emptied). And the engine is still running. The rotating blade can cause serious injuries!
1. Select your required setting.
2. Start the engine and allow it run.
3. Keep a firm grip on the upper handle with engine stop/start lever and drive lever (clutch
lever) closed and walk along with it self-propelling to start mowing.
Good practice advice
1. Walk, never run with the mower, be very careful when mowing uneven or rough ground.
2. Mow across slopes, never up and down.
3. Be careful when changing the direction of the mower on a slope.
4. Do not mow excessively steep slopes.
5. The best result will be achieved if the grass is dry. Wet grass will tend to clog the blade
and the grass collection system.
6. Grass grows at different rates at different time of the year. Never use the lowest cutting
height for the first cut of the season or in drought conditions.
7. Only about one thirds of the grass height should be cut.
8. When mowing with mulching, to ensure that the cut grass can be scattered efficiently, do
not cut high or wet grass. When you have been cutting for several minutes, please stop
the mower, and clean the blade and the deck.
9. Do not remove grass debris in the mower casing or on the blade by hand or with your
feet. Instead use suitable tools such as a brush or broom.
