OPERATING THE MOWER
Electrical Connection
Position the mower on the grass area to be cut. Carefully uncoil the
supply cable clear of the mower and take the plug end connection to
the mains socket outlet. Ensure that the mains socket is switched
'OFF' before locating the RCCB unit - Refer to "Safety Precautions"
- Preparation. Switch 'ON' and check the operation of the RCCB unit.
Switch 'OFF' before installing the mower supply cable plug and final-
ly switch on.

Starting

Locate the switch control lever mounted on the handlebar and ensure
that your feet are clear of the mower deck. Depress the safety button
with the left hand and pull the lever towards the handlebar with the
right hand. The motor will now start. The safety button will remain
depressed until the lever is released.
Failure to depress the safety button before operating the lever
can cause permanent damage to the switch control unit.

Forward Travel

Hold and push against the handlebar with both hands to move the
mower forwards.

Turning

To make a wide turn steer the mower with the handlebar whilst trav-
elling forward.
To make a tight turn apply downward pressure on the handlebar to
raise the front wheels of the mower just above ground level and steer
the mower using the handlebar in the required direction.
To prevent accidents do not raise the front of the mower exces-
sively when making a turn. Never raise the rear of the mower
when the motor is running.
