Mowing with the grass box :
The cutting height can be adjusted from 2.0 to 6.5 cm in 1.5 cm-
stages (4 positions).
v Unscrew wheels
4 by hand and screw back in firmly at the
cut-ting height required.
All 4 wheels 4 must always be screwed in at the same cutting
height (see scale z
S on the back of the wheel mounting).
To prevent the machine sliding down a slope,
A
it is necessary to lock the front wheels before
pushing the machine on to the slope.
Do not use the mower on a slope steeper than 20 ° maximum.
1. Turn both red running wheel locks K either way by 90 ° (groove
indicates direction of travel).
2. Bring front wheels 4 into straight ahead position until the
lock K engages.
The wheels are locked in the straight ahead position.
After mowing the slope, the front wheels can be unlocked again
by turning the wheel lock
K either way by 90°.
When mowing slopes, cut in lines across the slope.
The grass box must be emptied as soon as grass is left lying
on the lawn.
DANGER ! Foreign bodies thrown out of the mower
A
can cause injuries !
V Only lift protective flap with the motor switched
off and the cutting blade stationary.
1. Lift protective flap M and take out grass box F by the handle.
2. Empty the grass box F and hang it on the back again using
the mounting hook L on the casing.
Do not put your hand in the discharge opening.
When the protective flap M is released, this closes automatically
and covers the discharge opening.
The protective flap M is arranged in such a way that it is still
possible to mow with the protective flap closed but without a
grass box. The cut grass is then dropped on the lawn.
If grass residue is left in the discharge opening, pull mower
backwards about 1 m so that the grass residue can drop out
downwards.
