Information on mowing

Prior to mowing, check your device for completeness, proper
functioning, and cleanliness. A dirty ventilation grid causes
overheating of the engine, this can damage the engine. A
dirty protective grid at the silencer poses a fire hazard.
Frequent engagement and disengagement of the clutch in-
creases wear of the blade drive belt and the blade brake. Es-
pecially in case of high grass, clutch engagement leads to
overload.
To keep the area well maintained, mow frequently and keep
the grass short.
Only mow with a sharp and undamaged blade. Have the
blade sharpened and balanced regularly (by authorised ser-
vice centre).
Do not mow when the grass is wet or when it is raining. The
turf may be damaged and there is a danger of slipping!
Turn the device around only in already mown sections. Do
not leave the device unattended while the engine is running.
Set the cutting height so that the blade does not touch the
ground even in case of terrain unevenness.
Always set the blade to transport position when you do not
mow.
For mowing, always turn the accelerator lever to full throttle
to achieve the best mowing performance.
To avoid blockage during the ejection of grass, we recom-
mend, for flat terrain, to proceed according to the mowing
patterns. Mulch is shredded into much smaller pieces when
you mow the terrain once again in the opposite direction.
