To produce a well-maintained lawn we recommend cutting the
lawn one a week if possible. The lawn becomes thicker if cut
frequently.
Relatively long cut grass (> 1 cm) must be removed so that the
lawn does not become yellow and matted.
After relatively long intervals between mowing (holiday lawn), up
to max. 12 cm, first of all cut in one direction with the cutting height
as high as possible, then cut in the crosswise direction at the
cutting height required.
If possible, only cut the grass when it is dry, if the grass is damp,
the cutting pattern will be uneven.
The area of lawn you can mow with one charged accu depends
on the height and thickness of the lawn, i.e. the taller and thicker
the lawn, the smaller the area of lawn you can mow with one fully
charged Accu.

If the red LED (Accu flat) goes on, the Accu must be charged.
The Accu cover must always be kept closed during mowing.
The Accu becomes warm when using the cylinder mower. This
is normal and does not impair its performance.
Blockage protection : If the cylinder mower is blocked by a
foreign body or the motor is overloaded (red Error-LED lights
up), the motor is automatically switched off by the blockage
protection (loud rattling). Remove key from socket, remove
foreign body or rectify the cause of the overloading and restart
the mower after a few seconds.
