6. Before starting the equipment

The lawn mower is delivered unassembled. The
complete push bar, the rear wheels 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 (Figures 3a, b and 4)
Take the rear wheels (Figure 2/Item11) and mount
them on the axle as shown in Figure 3a. Then slide
the washer (Figure 2/Item 23) onto the axle and
fasten all parts with the supplied split pin (Figure
2/Item 22) as shown in Figure 3b. Finally, press the
wheel caps (Figure 2/Item 10) onto the wheels
(Figure 4).
Mounting the push bar (Fig. 5 to 10)
First take the spring (Figure 2/Item 16) and the
handlebar mount (Figure 2/Item 12) and mount them
on the relevant axle (Figure 5). Now insert the push
bar holder (Figure 2/Item 3) into the handlebar mount
(Figure 2/Item 12) and secure with the quick clamping
function (Figure 2/Item 17) (Figure 6).
The top push bar (Figure 1/Item 2) must be pushed
onto the push bar holders (Figure 2/Item 3) and
secured as shown above in Figure 9. Then attach the
power cable to the push bar (Fig. 10/Item A) using the
cable clips (Fig. 2/Item 18). Now you can select the
push bar height in three steps from 93.5 to 115.5 cm
(Figure 7/Item A).
Important.
The handle height may only be adjusted within the
marked range.
Press in the long handle and secure in the
n
desired position using the quick clamping
function (Figure 7/Item B)
Important.
Always set the identical handle height on both sides.
Use the cable clips to align the cable in
n
accordance with the long handle
(Figure 10/Item A)
Mounting the grass basket (see Figs. 11 to 13)
First, plug the left (Fig. 2/Item 21) and right (Fig.
2/Item 20) part of the housing together as shown in
Figure 11. Then plug the top part of the housing (Fig.
2/Item 19) onto the already mounted parts (Figure
12). Before you fit the grass basket you must ensure
that the motor is switched off and the blade is not
rotating. Lift the ejector flap (Fig. 13 / Item A) with one
hand. With the other hand, hold the grass basket by
the handle and hook it in from above (Fig. 13).
Filling level indicator of the grass collector
The grass collector is equipped with a filling level
indicator (Fig. 2/Item 24) which is opened by the air
current that the lawn mower generates during
operation. If the flap closes during mowing, the grass
collecting device is full and must be emptied. To
ensure the proper functioning of the filling level
indicator, the holes under the flap must be kept clean
and open.
Adjusting the cutting height
Important.
Adjust the cutting height only when the engine is
switched off and the power cable has been
disconnected.
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, first
switch off the motor and pull out the power plug.
The cutting height is adjusted as follows (see Fig. 14):
1. Push the lever (A) outwards.
2. Set the lever (B) to the desired cutting height.
3. Release the lever (A) and check that it is securely
seated in the lock.
Reading off the cutting height
The cutting height can be set between 25-75 mm in 6
intervals, and can be read off on the scale (Fig. 14/C).
Using the mulching adapter (Fig. 15, not included
with 34.130.60):
In mulching mode the cuttings are shredded in the
enclosed mower housing and then spread back onto
the lawn. It is not necessary to gather and dispose of
the grass.
Important: Mulching is only possible if the lawn is
relatively short.
Important!
Insert the mulching blade only when the engine is
switched off and the safety plug has been pulled out.
To use the mulching function, disconnect the debris
bag, slide the mulching adaptor (Fig. 15/Item 25) into
the ejector opening and close the ejector flap.
Charging the battery pack (Fig. 16a)
1. Take the battery pack out of the equipment. Do
this by pressing the side pushlock buttons.
2. Check that your mains voltage is the same as that
