3.6 To start / To stop the mower [ Fig. O1 / O8 ]:
DANGER!
Risk of physical injury!
Risk of injury if the product does not stop when the start lever is
released.
v Do not bypass the safety devices or switches.
v For example do not attach the start lever to the handle.
3.6.1 To start the mower:
The product is provided with a two-handed safety device (start lever and
safety interlock) to prevent the product from being turned on by accident.
We recommend using only the 4 Ah batteries P4A PBA 18V/72
(Art. 14905) or larger.
We recommend not to use 2 batteries of different capacity.
The battery with the lower state of charge / lower capacity determines the
runtime of the mower.
1. Open the cover (18) of the battery holder
(B)
2. Put the batteries into the battery holder
(20) into the mower and turn it to position 1.
3. Put the safety key
(18)
4. Close the cover of the battery holder
5. Push the safety interlock
with the other hand to the handle.
The mower starts and the battery charge status indication
displayed for 5 seconds.

3.7 Hints to mow:
3.7.1 Hints to use the mower:
If grass residue is left in the discharge opening, pull the mower backwards
about 1 m so that the grass residue can drop out downwards.
To produce a well-maintained lawn, we recommend to cut the lawn
regularly once a week if possible. The lawn becomes denser if you cut
it frequently.
After relatively long cutting intervals (holiday lawn), first of all cut in one
direction with the highest cutting height and then cut in the crosswise
direction with the required cutting height. This prevents a possible block-
age of the blade by too much grass residue.
If possible, only cut the grass when it is dry. If the grass is damp, the
cutting pattern will be uneven.
3.7.2 Cutting performance and battery charge:
The lawn area which can be cut on each battery charge depends on
several factors such as moisture, grass density and cutting height. In order
to ensure an optimal use of space, do not turn the mower on and off too
frequently as this severely reduces the battery running time. The cutting
performance for each battery charge can be ideally utilised by increasing
the cutting height and frequent mowing.
The Eco mode reduces the motor speed to 3100 rpm for a maximum bat-
tery lifetime.
