Before First Use: The device requires assembly of the handle and attachment of the collecting bag.

  1. Mounting the handle: The handle is assembled by connecting the pull relief, quick-release levers, and connecting pieces to the bottom part of the handle and then to the handle mount on the motor unit. The handle position can be adjusted for comfortable working height.
  2. Preparing the collecting bag: The collecting bag is partially assembled on delivery. It needs to be inserted into the recesses on the top of the collecting bag, and the plastic rims must be placed properly on all sides.

Operation:

  • Rules of operation: Always observe safety rules. Do not adjust or rectify the device when it stands still. Only lift the device on the grip and handle. Never reach underneath the device to lift it. Let the blade run to a stop before touching the device or the collecting bag again. Never reach beneath the discharge flap or into the discharge chute. Stop the motor immediately if you notice unusual mowing sounds or vibrations. Check and rectify the cause of the fault before resuming mowing. Never put a damaged device into operation. Any damage to the blade and the device must be repaired by the manufacturer's customer service or qualified personnel. Mow diagonally to inclinations.
  • Mowing and mulching: The device can be operated with or without the collecting bag. When trimming the lawn just a little shorter (max. 2 cm), it can be operated without the collecting bag for mulching.
  • Adjusting the handle position: The handle can be adjusted to a comfortable working height using the quick-release levers.
  • Adjusting the cutting height: The cutting height can be set between approximately 20 and 70 mm in 7 positions using the cutting height lever.
  • Turning the motor on and off: The motor is activated by means of a safety switch. To start, place the device on the grass, press and hold the button of the safety switch, and pull the safety bar towards the handle. The motor starts. To stop, let go of the safety switch button and keep the safety bar pressed to the handle as long as you operate the motor.
  • Emptying the collecting bag: The collecting bag has a fill level indicator. When the indicator rises, the collecting bag is full and needs to be emptied. To empty, stop the motor, lift the discharge flap, remove the collecting bag, and dispose of the clippings.

Maintenance Features

  • Cleaning:

    • Risk of electric shock: Moisture in the device may cause a short circuit or electric shock. Before cleaning, disconnect the power cable from the socket. Make sure that no water or other liquid gets inside the housing. Never clean the device with running water (e.g., a garden hose).
    • Improper cleaning can damage the device: Do not use any harsh cleaning products, brushes with metal or nylon bristles, or sharp or metallic cleaning materials such as knives, hard scrapers, or similar. They may damage the surfaces.
    • Remove wet cuttings immediately. Residues of wet cuttings on and in the device may harden and cause mould.
    • Cleaning and inspection after each use: Regular cleaning and inspection are necessary to keep the device in perfect state.
    • Stop the motor and wait until the blade stands still.
    • Disconnect the device by unplugging the power cable and remove the power cable from the pull relief.
    • Thoroughly empty the collecting bag.
    • Remove cuttings from the device and the collecting bag with a hand brush.
    • Tip the device on its side and remove cuttings from the discharge chute and blade compartment with a hand brush or a brush.
    • Check the blade for damaged spots and wear.
    • Do not operate the device with a damaged or worn blade! If necessary, have the blade sharpened or exchanged in a specialist workshop.
    • Set the device upright again.
    • Check all connections (handle, collecting bag) for tight fit.
    • The device is ready for storage.
  • Maintenance:

    • Apart from the measures described in the section "Cleaning and inspection after each use", the device is principally maintenance-free.

      • Function and free movement of the discharge flap.
      • Damage to the device, such as broken housing parts or worn collecting bag.

  • Storage:

    • Improper storage of the device can result in damage: Let the device dry before storing it. Residual moisture and cuttings remaining in the device can lead to mould formation.

Release the quick-release levers in the centre of the handle. Carefully fold the handle. Watch out for the connection cable. It must not be pinched between the handle parts. The device is ready for storage.
