Residual risks
Even if you use this electric power tool in
accordance with the instructions, certain
residual risks cannot be eliminated. The fol-
lowing hazards may arise in connection with
the equipment's construction and layout:
1. Lung damage if no suitable protective dust
mask is used.
2. Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protec-
tion is applied.
Warning!
This equipment generates an electromag-
netic fi eld during operation. Under certain
circumstances this fi eld may actively or pas-
sively impede medical implants. To reduce
the risk of serious or fatal injuries, we recom-
mend persons with medical implants to con-
sult their doctor and the manufacturer of the
medical implant prior to using the equipment.

5. Before starting the equipment

The lawn mower is delivered partly assembled.
The push bar and the grass basket must be as-
sembled before using the lawn mower. Follow the
instructions step by step and refer to the pictures
when assembling.
Mounting the push bar (Fig. 3 to 6).
Take a bottom push bar (Fig. 2 / Item 3) and fas-
ten it with the washer and nut function as shown
in Fig. 3. Proceed in the same way on the other
side.
The top push bar (Figure 1/Item 2) must be pu-
shed onto the push bar holders (Figure 2/Item 3)
and secured as shown above in Figure 5. Then at-
tach the power cable to the push bar (Fig. 2/Item
12) using the cable clips (Fig. 6).
Mounting the grass basket (see Figs. 7 to 9b)
Mount the top part of the grass box (Fig. 2 /Item
10) on the bottom part of the housing (Fig. 7) and
plug together. Next push the grass box handle
(Fig. 2/Item 18) into the openings on the grass
box (Fig. 8). Check that the handle is secure and
correctly positioned. Then press the grass box in-
sert (Fig. 2/Item 20) into the grassi box as shown
in Fig. 9a. Before you fi t the grass basket you
must ensure that the motor is switched off and the
blade is not rotating. Lift the ejector fl ap (Fig. 9b/
Item 7) with one hand. Using the other hand, grab
onto the basket by the handle and hang it in from

the top.
Filling level indicator of the grass collector
The grass box is equipped with a fi lling level
indicator (Fig. 2/Item 9). which is opened by the
airfl ow that the lawn mower generates during ope-
ration. If the fl ap closes during mowing, the grass
collecting device is full and must be emptied. To
ensure the proper functioning of the fi lling level
indicator, the holes under the fl ap must always be
kept clean and passable.
Adjusting the cutting height
Caution!
Adjust the cutting height only when the machine
has been switched off and the safety plug has
been pulled out.
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. To carry out this
check, fi rst switch off the motor and pull out the
safety plug.
The cutting height is adjusted as follows (see Fig.
10):
1. Push the lever (A) outwards.
2. Set the lever (A) to the desired cutting height.
3. Release the lever (A) and check that it is se-
curely seated in the lock.
Reading off the cutting height
The cutting height can be set between 20-60 mm
in 5 intervals, and can be read off on the scale
(Fig. 10/B).
Charging the battery (Fig. 11)
The supplied battery pack is allowed to be char-
ged only in the supplied charging unit. The battery
pack must be charged before the equipment is
used for the fi rst time.
1. Check to see if the voltage specifi ed on the
rating plate of the charging unit matches the
mains voltage. Insert the power plug of the
charging unit (19) into the mains socket out-
let. The red LED (B) will light up.
2. Push the battery pack (11) onto the charging
unit (19) until it latches in place.
3. Once the battery pack is full charged, the
green LED (C) will shine continuously.
4. In the section entitled „Charger indicator" you
will fi nd a table with an explanation of the LED
indicator on the charger.
