General information on handling the
The run time of the battery depends on several factors:
● The condition, length and density of the grass
● The cutting height setting
The maximum surface performance, depending on the
state of the grass, with a 5 Ah battery pack:
2
approx. 250 m .
The results of the mowing process can be optimised as
follows:
● Cut at a maximum of one third of the grass height.
● Reduce the speed at which push the device when
mowing tall grass.
Note
Do not mow wet grass. Wet grass sticks to the under-
side of the lawnmower and prevents correct collection of
the grass in the grass catcher or ejection of the grass.
WARNING
Lifting or tipping the lawnmower during operation
Incision injuries
The blade of the lawnmower rotates approximately par-
allel to the ground over which it moves. Take care to en-
sure that all four wheels touch the ground when
mowing.
1. Install the grass catcher or mulch plug (see Chapter
Initial startup).
2. Set the cutting height using the cutting height adjust-
ment lever.

Choose the cutting height according to the condi-
tion, length and density of the grass (see Chapter
General information on handling the lawnmower).

catcher, otherwise the ejection chute can become
clogged with cut grass (see Chapter Emptying the
grass catcher).
Lawn edges, e.g. along a wall, can also be mown using
the device.
1. Push the lawnmower along the wall, close to the
wall.
