Operating The Lawn Mower - Stihl Rma 7.0 Rv Gebrauchsanleitung

English
NOTICE
► To avoid tipping over, adjust the cutting
height first on the rear wheels and then on
the front wheels.
► Switch the lawn mower off.
The blade must not be turning.
► Place the lawn mower on a level surface.
► Pull lever (1) from the notch and move to the
desired position.
Perform this process on all 4 wheels.
13.3 Mulching
During mulching, the cut grass is chopped up
several times through a special air flow guidance
system in the mower blade area and then blown
back into the turf. The clippings remain on the
lawn surface where they partially decompose
and serve as a natural fertiliser. To ensure a per‐
fect, thick lawn, mulch regularly, removing 1/3 of
the grass height.
Requirements for good mulching results:
– Frequency: at least twice a week in the spring
(main period of growth) and once a week in
the summer and autumn.
– Cutting height: cut around a third of the grass
height.
– Mow the lawn when dry if possible.
– Use well-sharpened cutting blades.
– Select a low rate of feed.
– Vary the mowing direction and ensure that the
mowing strips overlap.
– Always mow very tall grass in stages.
