Setting the cutting height
m Attention! Adjust the cutting height only when
the engine is switched off and the plug boot has
been pulled.
• 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 as a set only (if applicable). To
carry out this check, first switch off the engine and
pull the spark plug connector.
• The cutting height is centrally adjusted with the
wheel height adjustor lever (fig. 13/ item 14). 7 dif-
ferent cutting heights can be selected.
m Attention! The wheel height adjustment
must be the same on both sides!
• Pull the adjustor lever out and select the desired
cutting height. The lever snaps into the desired po-
sition (fig. 13).
Preparing the area to be mowed
Before mowing, carefully examine the area. Remove
stones, sticks, bones, wires, toys and other objects
that may be ejected by the device.

9. Start up
m ATTENTION!
Always make sure the device is fully assembled
before commissioning!
Battery charge level (20) (Fig. 1)
The lawn mower is equipped with an electric starter.
A lithium ion battery (20) is used as the starter bat-
tery. Using the battery (20) and the battery charger
(21) is described in the user manual supplied.
1. To check the charge level, press the charge lev-
el indicator button on the battery (20). The battery
charge level indicator signals the charge level of
the battery.
2. The battery (20) may only be charged using the
battery charger (21) supplied. The battery (20) is
not recharged when operating the lawnmower.
m Attention!
The engine does not come with oil in it. There-
fore, ensure that you add oil before starting it
up. Use normal multigrade oil (SAE30 / 10W-30
/ 10W-40). The oil level in the engine must be
checked each time before mowing.
You will also need to fill in petrol, as this is also
not supplied upon delivery.
• To prevent the lawn mower from starting uninten-
tionally, it is equipped with an engine brake lever
(Fig.1, Pos.3), which must be actuated before the
lawn mower is started. When the engine control le-
ver is released it must return to its initial position, at
which point the engine automatically switches off.
• Press the engine brake lever (3) together and give
the pull cable starter (5) a vigorous pull. (Fig. 14)
• ATTENTION: When you pull the pull cable starter,
the cutting blade rotates even with a dissolved en-
gine brake lever. Make sure that there are no body
parts in the danger zone of the cutting blade.
• When the engine is running, press the drive lever
(2) to the handle (1) in order to engage the drive on
the mower.
• Before you start mowing, you should run through
this process several times in order to ensure that
the machine is working properly.
m WARNING
Whenever you need to perform any kind of ad-
justment and/or repair work on your lawnmower,
wait until the blade has come to a complete stop.
Always switch off the engine and take out the
spark plug before carrying out any adjustments,
maintenance or repairs.
Warning of the danger of moving knife assem-
blies!
