Warning!
This equipment generates an electromagnetic
fi eld during operation. Under certain circumstan-
ces this fi eld may actively or passively impede
medical implants. To reduce the risk of serious
or fatal injuries, we recommend persons with
medical implants to consult their doctor and the
manufacturer of the medical implant prior to using
the equipment.
6. Before starting the equipment
The lawn mower is delivered unassembled. The
complete push bar 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.
Mounting the push bar (Fig. 3 to 7)
Take a push bar bracket (Fig. 2 Item 2) and fasten
it as shown in Fig. 3. Important. Before you fasten
the top push bar, do not forget to fi t the holder for
the cable strain-relief clip (Fig. 2/Item 12) and the
strain-relief clip (Fig. 2/Item 8) on the top push bar
fi rst (see Fig. 5).
The top push bar (Fig. 1/Item 1) must be pushed
onto the push bar brackets (Fig. 2/Item 2) and
secured as shown above in Fig. 6. Then attach
the power cable to the push bar (Fig. 7/Item 14)
using the cable clips (Fig. 2/Item 14). Now you
can select the push bar height in three 3 from 80
to 103.5 cm (Fig. 4/Item A).
Important.
The handle height may be adjusted only within
the marked range.
•
Press in the long handle and secure in the
desired position using the quick clamping
function (Fig. 4/Item B)
Important.
Always set the identical handle height on both
sides.
•
Arrange the cable with the cable clips on the
long handle (Fig. 7/Item 14)
Mounting the grass basket
(see Figs. 8a to 8c)
First plug the lower part of the housing (Fig. 2/
Item 15) and the right part of the housing (Fig. 2/
Item 16) together as shown in Fig. 8a. Then plug
the top part of the housing (Fig. 2/Item 17) onto

the previously assembled parts (Fig. 8b). Before
you fi t the grass basket you must ensure that the
motor is switched off and the blade is not rotating.
Lift the ejector fl ap (Fig. 8c/Item 4) with one hand.
With the other hand, hold the grass basket by the
handle and hook it in from above (Fig. 8c).
Filling level indicator of the grass collector
The grass collector is equipped with a fi lling level
indicator (Fig. 2/Item 18) which is opened by the
air current that the lawn mower generates during
operation. If the fl ap closes during mowing, the
grass collecting device is full and must be emp-
tied. To ensure the proper functioning of the fi lling
level indicator, the holes under the fl ap 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 dis-
connected.
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, fi rst switch off the motor and pull out the
power plug.
The cutting height is adjusted as follows
(see Fig. 9):
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 se-
curely 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. 9/C).
Power supply
The lawn mower can be connected to any light
socket-outlet with a 230 Volt alternating current.
However, the socket outlet must have an earthing
contact protected by a 16 A circuit breaker. Addi-
tionally, a residual current device (RCD) circuit-
breaker with max. 30 mA must be used!
