This will prevent the lawnmower switching off automatically and may cause serious injury. Keep your hands and feet away from the internal housing and grass ejection chute when the motor is running. Always wear sturdy shoes and long trousers when mowing. Never mow your lawn when barefoot or when wearing only lightweight sandals. Adjusting the cutting height The cutting height can be adjusted in seven stages using the stopping lever (fig. G pos. 6). To adjust the cutting height, disengage the stopping lever by pulling it, move the stopping lever to the required position and allow it to engage. Cutting height Stage 1 = 1,6 cm this position is only for ornamental lawns and especially level surfaces. Stage 2 = 2,5 cm Stage 3 = 3 cm Stage 4 = 4 cm Stage 5 = 5 cm Stage 6 = 6 cm Stage 7 = 7 cm Note: in order to move the stopping lever to an higher stage more easily, slightly lift the appliance up using the housing handle (fig. G pos. 4). A A Warning! Switch off the motor before adjusting the cutting height. When setting the lawnmower to a lower cutting height, ensure that the blades of the cutting tool do not touch the ground if the ground is uneven. Attaching the extension cable Push the socket of the extension cable onto the plug (fig. C /D /E pos. 12) of the starter switch and then loop the extension cable through the cable lock (fig. F pos. 7) so that the extension cable is a slightly slack near the plug. The cable lock prevents the plug-in connection from becoming accidentally unplugged. Always unroll the spare cable completely and coil the cable loosely on the ground. Push the extension cable plug into the appropriate socket. The mains socket must be fused at a minimum of 16 A. For your safety, use a residual-current operated circuit breaker with a nominal fault current . 30 mA. When mowing, always guide the extension cable on the side of the lawnmower closest to the grass you have already mowed. A A Warning! Do not feed the extension cable around or underneath doors or through open windows! Always hold the plug and / or the coupling housing when unplugging the extension cable from the socket. Do not pull on the cable. Starting the lawnmower Carefully start the motor or press the starter switch according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer. Keep your feet away from the cutting tool. Stand the lawnmower on an even surface. Check the terrain where you will be using your lawnmower and remove all obstacles and objects, which could get caught and then ejected. If the cutting tool is blocked by a foreign body or the motor is overloaded, release both of the safety hoops (fig. C pos. 11) the safety hoop (fig. D/E pos. 11); the motor is automatically switched off. If necessary, remove the foreign body. A A Warning! Do not tilt the lawnmower when starting the motor. If you do need to tilt the lawnmower for some reason while starting the motor, in this case, press down gently on the guide handle and tilt the mower. Only tilt the mower as far as is absolutely necessary and only lift the front edge of the mower (the edge that is furthest away from you). To start, press the start button (fig. C/D/E pos. 10 ) and press one of the safety hoops (fig. C pos. 11) the safety hoop (fig. D/E pos. 11) with the other hand. After the motor has started up, release the start button (fig. C/D/E pos. 10). A A Warning! A frequent overloading of the motor (the rotational speed is audibly reduced during working) results in damage being caused to the motor coil. Stopping the Motor To turn the motor off, release the safety hoops (fig. C pos. 11) the safety hoop (fig. D/E pos. 11). The integrated brake ensures that the cutting tool comes to a halt within a period of 3 seconds. A A Warning! The cutting tool continues to move for a short time after you switch off the motor! 17 GB GB 8. Information concerning correct mowing General Information about Lawn Care We recommend mowing your lawn every week if possible to keep your lawn looking its best. Mowing your lawn regularly strengthens the individual blades of grass and makes your lawn more resistant. Short grass cuttings (up to around 1 cm in length) can be left on the lawn after mowing. Longer cuttings should be removed so that the lawn does not turn yellow and become matted. Cut your lawn for the first time in the spring as soon as the grass begins to grow and you can walk on the lawn. If the grass has already grown too tall, first mow in one direction with a high cutting height then mow at right angles to the first cut with the required shorter cutting height. Mowing Only mow with sharp, unworn blades so that the blades of grass are not frayed and the lawn does not turn yellow. The cutting height should always be at least 3 – 4 cm since the lower part of the grass blade is white. If you cut the grass too short, the lawn will no longer appear lush and green. The blades of grass will also dry out too quickly above all in the summer. If you mow your lawn using stage 1 (this position ...
