– Number, size and shape of the contacts on the extension cable
plug must correspond to the charger plug.
– The connection cable must be in a good condition and be
connected properly.
– The wire thickness must be at least 16 AWG (1.3 mm
rated input of the charger.
The charger must not be used if the plug or cable are damaged. The
connection cable cannot be replaced. If the cable is damaged, the
charger must be replaced immediately (see original spare parts and
accessories for order no. of the charger).
Do not use the charger if it has been subject to heavy impact, been
dropped or damaged in any other way. The charger must be replaced
if it is damaged. It cannot be repaired.
Do not dismantle the charger and do not try to repair it.
To avoid electric shocks make sure no water gets into the connector.
Remove the charger plug from the socket before cleaning.
Do not short-circuit the equipment. Never insert anything into the
battery contacts.
Disconnect the charger and store it in a cool, dry place if it is not
needed. Corrosion can occur on the terminals and electrical contents
if the charger is stored in humid areas.
The charger must not be used by persons (including children) with
impaired physical or metal abilities or reduced perception, unless
they have been instructed on how to use the equipment by a person
who is responsible for their safety.
Children must be supervised so that that cannot play with the
charger.
– Plug the battery charger into a 230V socket.
– Push the battery (1) into the charger (2) W1 .
If the red charge control lamp (3) T4 does not light up, take the battery out and
insert it again. Make sure the battery is firmly in the battery charger.
• The red control lamp (3) shows that the battery is being charged normally.
• The green control lamp (4) shows that the battery is fully charged T4 .
• The flashing red control lamp shows that the battery is either too hot or too
cold and cannot be charged.
Leave the battery connected. Once normal operating temperature has been
reached, the charging process begins automatically.
See the section "Data sheet for product safety: handling and storage" for the
normal operating temperature.
• Flashing red/green control lamps show that the battery cannot be charged
and must be replaced.
– The battery wakes up from "sleep mode" after about 10 seconds when it is in the
connected battery charger.
– A completely discharged battery takes approx. 1 hour to be charged completely.
Fast charge
The fast charge function of the InStart battery makes the following possible:
• 10 seconds charge: wakes the battery up from "sleep mode"
• 10 minutes charge: more than 10 start-up processes
• 60 minutes charge: more than 50 start-up processes with a fully charged
battery
– The battery remains fully charged if it remains on the charger.
– When the green control lamp (4) shows that the battery is fully charged, it can be
removed from the charger.
– Press the battery status display button to check the available charge (see the
section "Battery status display").
– Remove the battery charger plug from the socket if it is not required.
– In order to prevent unauthorised use of the mower, particularly by children, remove
the ignition key:
– when you leave the mower,
– when you put the lawn mower away until you need it for mowing again,
– before storing the mower for the winter.
– Store the battery in a dry, cool and frost-protected room.
Battery status display (Illustration U4 )
In order to check the available battery charge, press the battery status display button
(6).
The display lamps indicate the approximate battery charge remaining:
• four lamps – 78% to 100%
• three lamps – 55% to 77%
• two lamps – 33% to 54%
• one lamp – 10% to 32%
• flashing lamp – less than 10%
Filling with oil (Illustration Y1 )

IMPORTANT
Avoid damage! Engine is delivered without oil. You must add oil before running
the engine.
Before starting the engine for the first time, use a funnel to fill motor oil (quantity and
quality see technical data) having unscrewed the dipstick in this opening first.
– Set the mower on level ground.
– Slowly fill oil through the filler neck. Do not overfill. After filling the oil, wait for about
one minute and then check the oil level.
Insert the dipstick and screw it tight.
– Check oil level
Remove the dipstick. Use a clean cloth to wipe off the dipstick, then insert it again
and screw tightly. Then pull the dipstick out again and read off the oil level. The oil
must be at the full mark at the top (arrow). Replenish oil if necessary. The oil level
must not be higher than the full mark, however.
Insert the dipstick again and tighten.
– After initial filling, remove the "NO OIL" sign from the top of the engine.
Filling with fuel
– Only fill the tank with fresh and clean unleaded standard petrol.
Fuel with up to 10% ethanol is acceptable.
– Unscrew tank cap.
– Fill tank with fuel using a funnel up to max. lower edge of filling nozzle.
– Replace tank cap and screw tight.
10 STARTING THE ENGINE (ILLUSTRATION D + P4 )
Only start the engine when you are standing behind the mower.
Always place the mower on a level area which is not covered with high grass (if the
grass is too high it will block the cutter bar start-up and make starting the mower more
difficult). When the engine is started, the machine must not be tilted on end, if
necessary it must be tilted by pressing the guide bar down so that the cutting tool is
pointing in the direction away from the user, but only as far as absolutely necessary. As
long as the mower has not been lowered to the ground again, both your hands must be
on the top part of the bar.
IMPORTANT
The motor only operates when the safety control bracket is pressed against the
upper part of the handlebar. As soon as the safety control bracket is released,
this returns to its original position under spring force, the motor brake is
actuated, and the motor and blade come to stop within three seconds.
– Push and hold the safety control bar (1) on the top tube (2) D .
– Turn the ignition key (3) clockwise up to the limit stop, for so long until the engine
starts running P4 .
NOTE
To ensure a long service life of the battery and starter, the starting process should
never be longer than 5 seconds.
Always wait for one minute between actuations. In order to guarantee the full electrical
energy for a restart, a waiting time of 60 seconds is recommended.
NOTE
If the engine does not start and the battery control lamps are flashing, the battery is
overheated or the current consumption is too high.
All four battery control lamps flash for 10 seconds as a warning. The battery does not
have a fuse, but it is reset automatically after 10 seconds.
If the battery is too hot (over 60°C), it must be removed and cooled down to ambient
temperature.
To avoid excessive current consumption during the start-up process, care must be
taken that the mower housing is clean and free of grass accumulation and any other
objects.
NOTE
This engine has a ReadyStart
