Mulch
„Mulching“ is a process in which the grass is finely chopped by a
special cutting system and then deposited on the ground. The re-
sult is that the grass does not have to be collected and disposed
of. „Mulching“ also prevents the lawn from drying out.
3 Instructions for mulching
We recommend:
z Depending on the growth of grass, mulch 1 – 2 x per
week
z The grass should not be too high nor too wet!
z Go slow while mulching
z Take care that the blade channels do overlap.
z Do not cut grass more than 20 mm.
3 Note:
Mulching is not advisable in case of moss-affected or
entangled grass, because the cut material stays on the
moss surface and/or entanglement and thus cannot be
absorbed by the ground.
z Regularly scarify and manure the lawn.
Activating the mulch function
1 Attention! Rotary cutter blade
Undertake adjustments on the equipment only after the
motor is switched off and the cutting tool has come to a
standstill.
z Do not start the motor until your feet are at a safe distan-
ce from the cutting tool.
1. Remove the grass collecting bag.
2. Set the switch to „MULCH“.
3. Start the motor.
Maintenance

pull out the power plug and wear protective gloves.
1 Attention!
An unbalance can develop after regrinding of the blade.
z Always regrind the blades in a specialist workshop,
because an unbalance check should be undertaken
according to the safety regulations.
