Emptying The Grass Catcher; Maintenance - Honda HRG416XB Bedienungsanleitung

NOTE:
• Mowing frequency: once a week
for a lawn intended for leisure
purposes, twice a week for an
ornamental lawn.
• If possible, mow the lawn in the
afternoon or evening before
sprinkling, as the grass must be
dry. If dust levels are too high,
mow the lawn when the grass is
dry, but the ground is still damp.
• Choose a cutting height adapted
to the terrain (see page 7).
• For a regular cut, you should
overlap the part that has already
been cut by a few centimetres [1],
and increase this overlap zone if
the cutting height is high.
• To achieve maximum efficiency, follow the suggested path.
• If your terrain does not have a regular shape or involves several
obstacles, divide it into internal parcels which you can mow in the
recommended direction.
[2] Catching: turn in a clockwise
direction to achieve the
maximum efficiency.
[3] Mulching (HRG466XB only):
turn in an anti-clockwise
direction.

EMPTYING THE GRASS CATCHER

When the grass catcher becomes full, grass collection is no longer
efficient (the sound of the machine changes and the grass catcher
is no longer puffed up by the air from the cutting-means).
HRG466XB:
1. Release the cutting-means control
lever and drive clutch lever.
HRG416XB:
1. Release the cutting-means control
lever.
All models:
2. Remove the grass catcher
(see page 5).
3. Empty the grass catcher:
• Hold the grass catcher by the
metal handle [4].
• Grasp grass catcher [5] and shake
the grass catcher to remove the
grass.
CAUTION:
• To reduce the fire risk, never leave grass cuttings or leaves in the
grass catcher, or in or near buildings. Decomposing grass
cuttings causes a high temperature rise.
Before use, check that the grass catcher closing device is
correctly positioned (discharge cover).

MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance helps to extend the life of your machine.
To carry out this series of
service, place the machine
on stable and level ground
with the isolator key [6]
and the battery pack
removed from the
machine.
NOTE: To assure a longer lifetime and more efficient operation, the
underside of the machine must be kept clean and free of grass
debris by cleaning with a brush and scraper. After use the machine
must be cleaned thoroughly before being stored.
