Cleaning, Maintenance And Ordering Of Spare Parts - EINHELL RG-EM 1536 HW Original Operating Instructions

Select the cutting height according to the length
of the grass. If the lawn has grown quite a bit,
mow over it several times so that no more than 4
cm of grass are cut at one time.
Switch off the motor before doing any checks on
the blade. Keep in mind that the blade continues
to rotate for a few seconds after the engine has
been switched off . Never attempt to manually
stop the blade. Regularly check to see if the
blade is securely attached, is in good condition
and is sharp. If the contrary is the case, sharpen
the blade or replace it. In the event that the blade
strikes an object, immediately switch off the lawn
mower and wait for the blade to come to a com-
plete stop. Then inspect the condition of the blade
and the blade mount. Replace any parts that are
damaged.
Lay the power cable on the ground in loops in
front of the power outlet. Mow away from the po-
wer outlet and cable, making sure that the power
cable always trails in the mowed grass so that the
lawn mower does not travel over the cable.
As soon as grass clippings start to trail the lawn
mower, it is time to empty the grass basket. Im-
portant. Before taking off the grass basket, switch
off the engine and wait until the blade has come
to a stop.
To take off the grass basket, use one hand to lift
up the chute fl ap and the other to grab onto the
basket handle. Remove the basket. For safety
reasons, the chute fl ap automatically falls down
after removing the grass basket and closes off the
rear chute opening. If any grass remains in the
opening, it will be easier to restart the engine if
you pull the mower back approximately 1m.
Do not use your hands or feet to remove clippings
in or on the mower housing, but instead use suita-
ble tools such as a brush or a hand broom.
In order to ensure that the majority of grass clip-
pings are picked up, the inside of both the grass
basket and especially the net must be cleaned
after each use.
Reattach the grass basket only when the engine
is switched off and the blade is stopped.

Using one hand, lift up the chute fl ap, while grab-
bing onto the basket handle with the other. Hang
in the basket from the top.

Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it with compressed air at low
pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could at-
tack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensu-
re that no water can seep into the device. The
ingress of water into an electric tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.

brushes checked only by a qualifi ed electrician
and/or an authorized service agent.
Danger! The carbon brushes should not be rep
laced by anyone but a qualifi ed electrician or the
authorized service technician.
