Adjusting the Cut Height

The cut height is infinitely adjustable from
14 – 43 mm:
1. Loosen the locknuts (12) on both
sides of the machine.
2. Place one foot on the castors (9)
and set the desired cut height with
both hands on the adjusting han-
dles (14).
Ensure that the machine is set to
the same height on both sides.
3. Retighten the locking screws (12).
Set the cut height no lower than to
where the blade cylinder does not
touch the ground even where it is
uneven.

Working Instructions

Before each use, check the machine
for obvious defects, such as loose,
worn or damaged parts. Check that
all nuts, bolts and screws are sitting
firmly.
Regular mowing stimulates the stronger
formation of leaves in the grass as well as
allowing weeds to die off at the same time.
Thus, the lawn becomes thicker each time it
is mowed and a lawn with even resilience
is produced.
• Run the machine at walking pace, in
strips that are a straight as possible.
For seamless mowing, the strips should
always overlap by a few centimetres.
• On slopes, always work across the
slope.
• For the first cut of the season, choose
a high the cut height and reduce the
height to around 20 mm for the subse-
quent cuts.
Cleaning and
Maintenance
Have work that is not de-
scribed in these instructions
carried out by one of our
authorised customer service
centres. Use only original
components. In this way you
avoid damage to the appli-
ance and possible injury to
people.
Wear gloves when dealing with the
blades. Risk of cuts.
• Check covers and safety devices for
damage and check that these are sitting
correctly. Replace if necessary.

Cleaning

Neither hose down nor use running
water to clean the mower. Risk of
electric shock.
• Always keep the machine clean. For
cleaning, use a brush or cloth, but no
cleaning agents or solvents.
• After mowing, remove any plant
remains stuck to the wheels and the
blade area.
• Rub the blades with an oil rag or spray
them with a metal maintenance spray.
• Due to the special cutting geometry,
the blade cylinder blades cannot be
re-sharpened. If necessary, the blade
cylinder and sub-blade must therefore
be replaced as a set. Have a specialist
workshop carry out the installation of
the blade cylinder.
