5. Before starting the equipment

Warning! Wear safety gloves whenever you carry
out any assembly or maintenance work.
Assembly
Fig. 3: Screw the top push bar section (12) to
the two push bar extensions (13) using the two
screws (K), the washers (L) and the two quick-
release levers (18). You can use the holes (A) to
extend the length of the push bar by approx. 6 cm.
Fig. 4: Screw the lower push bar section (14) to
the push bar extensions (13) using four M6x30
screws (15) and four M6 self-locking nuts (16).
Fig. 5: First attach one side of the lower push bar
section (14) to the mower, then press the lower
push bar section (14) together slightly and attach
the other side.
Fig. 5 / 6: To secure the lower push bar section to
the mower, insert a split pin (17) into the hole (B)
on both sides.

6. Operation

6.1 Cutting height adjustment (Fig. 7)
Four diff erent cutting heights can be set between
13 and 38 mm. To adjust the height, pull the
spring-loaded bolts (C) out on both sides and
then allow them to engage in the desired holes
(D). The cutting depth setting can be read off the
scale (E).
Note: The roller (F) must be aligned so that it
is parallel to the hand mower (same height at
spring-loaded bolt (C)).

6.2 Operation
The hand mower can cut grass up to approx. 10
cm in length. If you want your lawn to have a neat,
trimmed look to it, however, you must consistently
keep it cut down to a more manageable height.
When starting the mowing session (and when
mowing over freshly laid sod), it is advisable to
set the cutting height relatively high, then gra-
dually work your way down. For a well-groomed
look, the cutting height should be set to approx.
2.5 cm.
For optimum results, mow your lawn on a weekly
basis. Grass blades grow thicker, faster, and are
more resiliant when their stems are consistently
kept short (unless you live in very dry conditions
and do not frequently water). Always mow the
lawn when it is reasonable dry. In order to ensure
that your lawn has a clean, even look to it when
you're fi nished, mow in fairly straight paths at
walking pace. The cutting swaths should always
overlap each other by a few centimeters in order
to avoid unsightly strips of grass.
7. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
7.1 Cleaning
•
Clean the machine with a brush or rag after
each use.
•
Store the mower in a location that is dry and
not accessible to children. To save storage
space, you can move the push bar to the
upright position (Fig. 9) and fold down the top
push bar section (Fig. 10). To do that, open
the quick-release levers (Fig. 3/Item18), loo-
sen them slightly by rotating them and then
fold down the top push bar section.
•
Keeping your lawn mower in good condition
not only ensures a long lifespan and high per-
formance, but also enables the equipment to
thoroughly cut your grass with minimal effort.
7.2 Maintenance
•
Ensure that all mounting components (i.e.
screws, bolts, nuts etc.) are always tightened
so that the mower can be safely operated at
all times.
•
Replace excessively worn or damaged parts
immediately.
•
In order to ensure that you enjoy the equip-
ment for many years to come, all screwed
parts, as well as the wheels and axles, should
be cleaned and lubricated.
