Before Starting The Equipment - EINHELL GP-CM 36/41 Li Original Operating Instructions

5. Before starting the equipment

The lawn mower is delivered partly assembled.
The push bar and the grass basket must be as-
sembled before using the lawn mower. Follow the
instructions step by step and refer to the pictures
when assembling.
Important! Required assembly parts (screws,
cable guides, etc.) or functional parts (e.g. plugs,
wrenches, etc.) can be found in the molded parts
of the packaging or on the equipment.
There are three contacts on the right-hand teeth
of the handlebar adjustment facility (Fig. 3/Item
D), as well as on the right-hand push bar (Fig. 3/
Item E). The contacts are for connecting the elec-
trical connections of the motor and switching bar.
To avoid a loose connection while mowing, which
would cause the motor to stop, the contacts on
the handlebar adjustment facility and the push
bar must be pressed firmly together. If necessary,
turn the quick-release lever on the right-hand side
in a clockwise direction a little after flipping it back
into the closed position.
Fitting the push bar
Use the quick-tightening screws (Fig. 2/Item 16)
to fasten the push bar (Fig. 2/Item 13) to the teeth
of the handlebar adjustment facility. If necessary,
turn the quick-tightening screw back sufficiently
on the thread so that the quick-release lever (Fig.
4/Item 16a) can then still be flipped down towards
the back.
You can adjust the angle of the long handle as a
whole by flipping up the two quick-release levers
(Fig. 5/Item 16a), with three settings available
for the angle (Fig. 5). Only these three positions
are available. As you do this, make sure that both
sides are set to the same position. To secure the
push bar again, flip the two quick-release levers
back into the closed position.
You can adjust the angle of the upper push bar
(Fig. 6a) by flipping up the two upper quick-re-
lease levers (Fig. 6/Item 16a), with three settings
available for the angle. As you do this, make sure
that both sides are set to the same position. To
secure the push bar again, flip the two quick-
release levers back into the closed position.
Fitting the catch basket
Finally, press the carry-handle (Fig. 7/Item 5b)
onto the top part of the housing of the catch bas-

ket. During assembly, make sure that there is an
audible click when you fit the individual parts of
the housing together. Before you fit the catch bas-
ket you must ensure that the motor is switched
off and the blade is not rotating. Lift the ejector
flap (Fig. 8/Item 7) with one hand. Using the other
hand, grab onto the basket by the handle and
hang it in from the top.
Filling level indicator of the grass collector
The grass collector is equipped with a filling level
indicator (Fig. 9/Item 12). which is opened by the
airflow that the lawn mower generates during ope-
ration. 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 always be
kept clean and passable.
Adjusting the cutting height
Caution!
Adjust the cutting height only when the machine
has been switched off and the safety plug has
been pulled out.
The cutting height is adjusted as follows
(see Fig. 11):
1. Push the lever (7) outwards.
2. Set the lever (7) to the desired cutting height.
3. Release the lever (7) 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.
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
safety plug.
