6. Fill the tank with approx. 2 liters of petrol
whenever empty, using a funnel and measuring
jug to do so. Ensure that the petrol is free of any
contaminants.
Warning: Never use more than one safety petrol
can. Do not smoke when refueling. Switch off the
engine before refueling and allow the engine to cool
down for a few minutes.
7. Ensure that the ignition cable is connected to the
spark plug.
8.
Move the speed lever to position “
N
”.
9. Stand behind the mower. Place one hand on the
engine start/stop lever. Place the other hand on
the starter handle.
10.
Start the engine using the reversing starter (Fig.
1/Item 4). To do this pull the handle approx. 10 –
15 cm (until you feel a resistance) and then start
the engine with a sharp pull. If the engine does
not start, pull the handle again.
Important! Never allow the starter cord to snap
back.
Note: In cold weather, it may be necessary to
repeat the starting process several times.
11. When the engine is at working temperature it can
be started in the “Tortoise” (Fig. 7) setting.
Important: Attempting to start the engine when
set at position “
N
” may cause the spark plug to
become wet if the engine is at working
temperature. Wait a few minutes before
attempting to start the engine again.
Mulching
In the mulching mode the cuttings are shredded in
the enclosed mower housing and then spread back
onto the lawn. It is not necessary to gather and
dispose of the grass.
Important: Mulching is only possible if the lawn is
relatively short. Optimum results can be achieved
only with a mulching blade (available as an
accessory).
To use the mulching function, disconnect the debris
bag, slide the mulching adaptor into the ejector
opening (Fig. 6a/Item 22) and close the ejector
opening.
Side ejector
You should fit the mulching adaptor (Item 22) in
order to use the side ejector. Connect the side
ejector adaptor (Fig. 6b/Item 21) as shown in Figure
6b.
6.1 Before mowing
Important information
1. Make sure that you are properly dressed when
mowing. Wear sturdy, non-slip footwear; do not
wear sandals or tennis shoes.
2. Inspect the blade. A blade that is bent or
damaged in any other way must be immediately
exchanged for a genuine Einhell replacement
blade.
3. Do not fill the fuel tank indoors, but rather out in
the open. Use a filling funnel and a measuring
jug. Wipe off any spilled petrol.
4. Read and follow in the instructions in the
operating manual as well as the information
regarding the engine and accessory equipment.
Store the manual in a place where it can be
readily accessed by other users of the machine.
5. Exhaust gas is dangerous. Only start the engine
out in the open.
6. Make sure that all the guards are fitted and that
they are in good working order.
7. The machine should only be operated by
persons who are well informed with the way it
works, and who are in reasonably good physical
condition.
8. It can be dangerous to mow the grass when it is
wet. Try to ensure that you only mow the grass
when it is dry.
9. Advise children and others to keep well away
from the lawn mower.
10. Never mow the grass in poor visibility.
11. Remove all loose objects from the lawn before
you start mowing the grass.
6.2 Tips for proper mowing
Important! Never open the chute flap when the
catch bag has been detached (to be emptied) and
the engine is still running. The rotating blade can
cause serious injuries!
Always carefully fasten the chute flap and grass
basket. Switch off the engine before emptying the
grass basket.
Always ensure that a safe distance (provided by the
length of the long handles) is maintained between
the user and the mower housing. Be especially
careful when mowing and changing direction on
slopes and inclines. Maintain a solid footing and
wear sturdy, non-slip footwear and long trousers.
Always mow along the incline (not up and down).
For safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be used
to mow inclines whose gradient exceeds 15 degrees.
