6. Operation

Caution!
The lawn mover is equipped with a safety circuit
to prevent unauthorized use. Directly before star-
ting up the lawn mover insert the safety plug (Fig.
9) and remove the safety plug again whenever
you interrupt or terminate your work.
Caution!
To prevent the equipment switching on acciden-
tally, the lawn mower is equipped with a safety
switch (Fig. 10/Item 8) which must be pressed
before the switching bar (Fig. 10/Item 1) can be
activated. The lawn mower switches itself off
when the switching bar is released. The start time
can amount to several seconds. The speed will
drop after a few seconds when in idle mode and
will rise again after a few second when in working
mode. The lawn mower switches itself off when
the switching bar is released. Repeat this process
several times so that you are sure that the ma-
chine functions properly. Before you perform any
repair or maintenance work on the equipment,
ensure that the blade is not rotating and that the
power supply is disconnected (Fig. 9).
Caution! Never open the chute fl ap when the
grass bag has been detached (to be emptied)
and the motor is still running. A rotating bla-
de can cause serious injuries!
Always carefully fasten the chute fl ap 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!
