Before starting the equipment
Assembling the components
Some parts of the mower come disassembled. For
quick and easy assembly, read and follow the inst-
ructions below.
Important! You will need the following additional tools
(not supplied) for assembly, and also for mainte-
nance work:
• A 1 liter measuring jug (oil/petrol resistant)
• A petrol can (5 liters is sufficient for approx. 6
operating hours)
• A funnel (suitable for the tankʼs petrol filler neck)
• Household wipes (to wipe up oil/petrol residue;
dispose of these at a filling station)
• A petrol suction pump (plastic, available from DIY
stores)
• An oil can with hand pump (available from DIY
stores)
• Spark plug wrench
• 0,6 liter of engine oil (SAE 30)
Assembly
1. Take the mower and attachment parts out of the
packaging and check that all parts are present.
2. Attach the lower push bar to both sides of the
mower with two screws (a, e), 2 washer (b), one
plastic grip nut (c) and one star grip nut (d) each.
Make sure that the cables, which will be attached
later, are not in the way (Fig. 2-3).
3. Attach the upper push bar on the lower push bar
with one quick-release lever (5), one washer (b)
and one plastic nut (f) each on both sides (Fig.
4-5). Note the correct alignment of the quick-re-
lease lever fixation slice ensuring the quick-release
function remains intact.
4. Insert the pull start handle (17) in the designated
hook as shown in Fig. 6.
5. Fix the cables to the push bar with the cable clips
(18) provided (Fig. 7).
6. Grass box (16) - open it up and click the plastic
clips into position on the frame (Fig. 8).

8. Mulching:
If the grass box (16) is attached, remove it and
replace it with the mulch insert (19) as shown in
Fig. 10-12.
Setting the cutting height
m CAUTION!
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 boot.
• The cutting height is centrally adjusted with the
cutting height adjustor lever (Fig.13/ Item 14). 8
different cutting heights can be selected.
• Pull the adjustor lever out and select the desired
cutting height. The lever snaps into the desired
position. (Fig. 13)

8. Operation

m CAUTION!
The engine does not come with oil in it. Therefore,
ensure that you add 0,45 liters of oil before starting it
up. Use normal, multigrade oil (SAE30 / 10W40). 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.
• In order to avoid any unintentional start-ups of the
lawn mower, it comes equipped with an engine
brake (Fig. 1/ Item 3) which must be pulled back
before the engine can be started. When the engine
control lever 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 starter cord (17) a vigorous pull. (Fig. 14)
Attention:
When you pull the starting rope the cutting blade
rotates even when dissolved motor brake lever.
Make sure that there are no body parts in danger
zone of cutting blade.
• When the engine is running, press the drive lever
(2) to the handle (1) in order to engage drive on the
mower.
• Before you start mowing, you should run through
this operation 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 lawn mower,
wait until the blade has come to a complete stop.
Always switch off the engine before carrying out
any adjustments, maintenance or repairs.
