9 OPERATION
9.1
Connect to power supply.
Before you connect the equipment to the
mains supply make sure that the data on the
rating plate are identical to the mains data.
Connect the plug to an extension cable. It is
imperative to secure the extension cable with
the cable grip as shown in Figure 5a.
9.2
Starting
Press and hold safety button (then squeeze the switch lever towards the handle). Release the
safety button.
9.3
Stopping
Release the switch lever
ATTENTION : After switching off, the cutting blade will go on turning for a
few seconds, make sure the blade has come to a complete standstill.
CAUTION: Do not rapidly switch off and on.
9.4
Safety button
Important! To prevent the machine switching on accidentally, the lawn mower is equipped with
a safety lock-off which must be pressed before the switching bar can be activated. The lawn
mower switches itself off when the switch is released.
Repeat this process several times so that you are sure that the machine functions properly.
Before you perform any repair or maintenance work on the machine, ensure that the blade is
not rotating and that the power supply is disconnected.
Important! Never open the discharge flap if the grass bag is being emptied
and the motor is still running. The rotating blade can cause serious injuries.
Always secure the discharge flap and grass bag carefully. Always switch off the motor before
you remove these items. The safety distance between the blade casing and the user provided
by the guide struts must be maintained at all times.
9.5
Information on correct mowing
We recommend that you mow in overlapping lines. Only mow with sharp, perfect blades so
that the blades of grass do not fray, making the lawn turn yellow.
The cutting height should be between 4 and 6 cm and the growth before the next cut should
be between 4 and 5 cm. If the lawn grows longer than this on occasion, do not make the
mistake of cutting to normal length straight away since this will damage the lawn. Never cut
the grass by more than half its height.
