10.2 Filling up with petrol (Fig. 10)
m DANGER!
Risk of fire and explosion!
When filling, fuel may ignite and even explode. This can lead
to severe burns or death.
- Switch off the engine and let it cool down.
- Keep heat, flames and sparks away.
- Only fill up with fuel outdoors.
- Wear protective gloves.
- Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
- Move at least three meters away from the refuelling area
before starting the engine.
- Watch out for leaks. If petrol is leaking, do not start the
engine.
m Attention!
The lawnmower is delivered without petrol. It is
therefore essential to fill with petrol before com-
missioning. Use only E10 unleaded petrol.
1. Clean the area surrounding the filling area. Impurities in the
fuel tank (8) lead to operational faults.
2. Carefully open the tank cover (7) so that any possible
overpressure can be relieved.
3. Fill the fuel tank (8) with petrol using a funnel (not in-
cluded in the scope of delivery). Note the max. filling
capacity of 0.85 litres. Carefully fill the petrol up to the
lower edge of the filling nozzle.
4. Close the tank cover (7) again. Ensure that the fuel cap
is tightly sealed.
5. Clean the tank cover (7) and the surroundings.
6. Check the fuel tank (8) and fuel lines for leaks.
7. Move at least three meters away from the refuelling
area before starting the engine.

11. Start up

NOTE: Some noise pollution from this device is
unavoidable. Postpone noisy work to approved
and designated times. If necessary, adhere to
rest periods and limit the duration of work to the
bare minimum. For your personal protection and
the protection of nearby persons, wear suitable
hearing protection.
11.1 Blade stop device
Before each use, you must check the blade stop device. Start
the engine as described in 12.2.
1. Release the engine brake lever (2). The engine switches
off and the blade (19) is braked.
2. The blade (19) must stop within 7 seconds.
11.2 Setting the cutting height (Fig. 7+8)
m Attention! Adjust the cutting height only when
the engine is switched off and the spark plug con-
nector (12) has been pulled out.
• The cutting height is adjusted via the wheels (11). Three dif-
ferent cutting heights can be set (see section 9.3).
• In dense, tall grass, set the highest cutting level and mow more
slowly. A high cutting height should be selected for the first cut
of the season. Adjust the cutting height so that the device is not
overloaded. (See section 9.3)
• Set the cutting height depending on the actual length of
the lawn.
• Carry out several passes so that a maximum of 4 cm of
lawn is removed at a time.
• The correct cutting height for
- ornamental grass is about 30 - 45 mm
- utility turf about 40 - 65 mm.
11.3 Preparing the area to be mowed
1. Before mowing, carefully examine the area.
2. Remove stones, sticks, bones, wires, toys and other objects
that may be ejected by the device.
3. Ensure that no other people are present on the surface to
be mowed.

12. Operation

Working instructions
• Only cut with sharp, flawless mowing blades (19) so that
the blades of grass do not fray and the lawn does not turn
yellow.
• To achieve a clean cut, guide the lawnmower in the straight-
est possible paths. These strips should always overlap by a
few centimetres so that no patches remain.
• Keep the underside of the lawnmower housing clean and
be sure to remove grass debris. Deposits make the start-
ing process more difficult, impair cutting quality and grass
discharge.
• On slopes, the cutting path should be made perpendicular
to the slope. It is possible to prevent the lawnmower from
slipping by lifting it upwards at an angle.
12.1 Mowing with the grass collection basket (16)
m Attention! Do not operate the device without the grass
collection basket (16) fully attached.
m Attention! Danger of injury!

the engine is switched off and the blade (19) is stationary.
12.1.1 Inserting the grass collection basket (16)
(Fig. 11)
1. Lift the rear discharge flap (15).
2. Hold the grass collection basket (16) by the carrying
handle.
3. Hang the grass collection basket (16) in the grass collec-
tion basket suspension provided at the rear of the device.
4. Put down the rear discharge flap (15), it holds the grass
collection basket (16) in position.
12.1.2 Emptying the grass collection basket (16)
(Fig.11)
