Adjusting the Cutting Height

Stop, release switch lever and wait until

chine is switched off, a rotating blade can
cause injury.

For the first cutting of the season, a high cutting ad-
justment should be selected.
The lawnmower can be set to 7 cutting heights
F
between 35 mm and 70 mm. For this purpose, press
the height of cut lever 12 inwards then lift or push
down the mower until required height is selected.

If the mower is not going to be used immediately fit
isolator key 24 as shown in the storage position.
The mower is fitted with a blade brake. This safety
feature stops the blade from rotating in a few sec-

Mowing
When mowing do not allow the motor to la-
bour particularly in heavy conditions. When
the motor labours the speed of the motor
drops and you will hear a change in the motor sound,
when this occurs stop mowing, release the switch le-
ver and raise the height of cut. Failure to do so will
reduce area of cut and could damage the product or
battery.
Protect the battery from heat, for example, also the
continuous exposure to sun radiation and fire.
Product will not function if temperature
is below 0 °C or above 45 °C!
The grass combs 11 allow a very close cut to the
H
wall or edge. Beware of running combs into objects
while cutting close to walls/edges.
Do not leave the battery in the mower in direct sun-
light.

checked when the battery is removed. After ap-
prox. 5 seconds, the charge-control indicator
goes out automatically.
