ATTENTION
The product is delivered without fuel. It is
therefore essential to fill with fuel before
commissioning. Use Super E10 petrol for
this.
1. Clean the area surrounding the filling area. Impuri-
ties in the fuel tank (11) lead to operational faults.
2. Carefully open the tank cover (10) so that any pos-
sible overpressure can be relieved.
3. Fill the fuel tank (11) with fuel using a funnel (not in-
cluded in scope of delivery). Note the max. filling
capacity of 0.85 litres. Carefully fill the fuel up to the
lower edge of the filling port.
4. Close the tank cover (10) again. Ensure that the fu-
el cap is tightly sealed.
5. Clean the tank cover (10) and the surroundings.
6. Check the fuel tank (11) and fuel lines for leaks.
7. Start the product at a distance of at least 3 m from
the fuel filling point.

10.2 Setting the cutting height
(Fig.12)
ATTENTION
Adjust the cutting height only when the en-
gine is switched off and the plug boot has
been pulled.
• In dense, tall grass, set the highest cutting level and
mow more slowly. A high cutting height should be
selected for the first cut of the season. Adjust the
cutting height so that the product is not overloaded.
• Set the cutting height depending on the actual
length of the lawn.
• Carry out several passes so that a maximum of 4
cm of lawn is removed at a time.
• The correct cutting height for
– ornamental grass is about 30 - 45 mm
– utility turf about 40 - 65 mm.
The cutting height is adjusted via the cutting height ad-
justment lever (20). Different cutting heights can be set.
1. Pull the cutting height adjustment lever (20) out-
wards.
2. Slide the cutting height adjustment lever (20) to the
desired cut height position.
3. Release the cutting height adjustment lever (20)
again. The lever locks into the desired position.
10.3 Preparing the area to be mowed
1. Before mowing, carefully examine the area.
2. Remove stones, sticks, bones, wires, toys and other
objects that may be ejected by the product.
3. Ensure that no other people are present on the sur-
face to be mowed.
11 Operation
Working instructions
• Only cut with sharp, flawless mowing blades so that
the blades of grass do not fray and the lawn does
not turn yellow.
• To achieve a clean cut, guide the lawnmower in the
straightest possible paths. These strips should al-
ways overlap by a few centimetres so that no patch-
es remain.
• Keep the underside of the mower housing clean
and be sure to remove grass debris. Deposits make
the starting process more difficult, impair cutting
quality and grass discharge.
• On slopes, the cutting path should be made perpen-
dicular to the slope.
• It is possible to prevent the lawnmower from slip-
ping by lifting it upwards at an angle.

basket
ATTENTION
Do not operate the product without the grass collec-
tion basket fully attached or without a mulching insert.
ATTENTION

tionary.
