3. OPERATION

DANGER! Risk of injury!
Cut injury when the product starts accidentally.
v Wait for the blade to stop, disconnect the product from
the mains and use gloves before you adjust or transport
the product.
To adjust the cutting height:
For the first cut of the season, always cut on the highest cutting height
possible, and gradually lower the cutting height over successive cuts to
your desired height for the lawn.
300 (in 3 positions) [ Fig. O1 / O2 / O3 / O4 / O5 ]:
The cutting height can be adjusted from 20 – 60 mm.
Position 'Low' (20 mm): Cutting height setting should only be used on
well maintained 'manicured lawns' without excessive moss or thatch.
Position 'Mid' (40 mm): Cutting height setting is the suitable for most
lawns.
Position 'High' (60 mm): Cutting height setting is used when you lawn
has excessive growth such as following holidays or first cut of the season.
v Move both axles to the desired position in the E-Gate. Make sure
that both sides of the axle are in the same position. Make sure that
both axles are in the same position.
To start the mower [ Fig. O6 ]:
DANGER! Risk of injury!
Risk of injury if the product does not stop when you
release the start lever.
v Do not bypass the safety devices or switches. For example
do not attach the start lever to the handle.
To start:
The mower is fitted with a two-handed safety device (start lever
with starting lockout) to prevent the mower from being turned on
by accident.
1. Connect the mains cable to the mains.
2. Push the starting lockout with one hand and pull the start lever with
the other hand.
The mower starts.
3. Release the starting lockout.
To stop:
v Release the start lever.
The mower stops.
Tips to use the mower:
If grass residue is left in the discharge opening, pull the mower backwards
about 1 m so that the grass residue can drop out downwards.
To produce a well-maintained lawn and optimise the cutting performance,
we recommend to cut the lawn regularly once a week if possible. The lawn
becomes denser if you cut it frequently.
After relatively long cutting intervals (holiday lawn), first of all cut in one
direction with the highest cutting height and then cut in the crosswise
direction with the required cutting height.
If possible, only cut the grass when it is dry, if the grass is damp, the
cutting pattern will be uneven.
