Working with the
Lawnmower
Regular mowing encourages increased foli-
ation of the grass and kills off weeds at the
same time. Therefore, not only does each
mowing increase the density of the lawn, it
also produces an evenly resilient lawn.
The fi rst cut is to be made in around April,
at a growth height of 70 – 80 mm. In the
main vegetation period, the lawn is to be
mowed at least once a week.
• Run the equipment at a walking pace,
in tracks that are as even as possible.
For gap-free mowing, the tracks should
always overlap by a few centimetres.
• Adjust the cut height so the equipment
is not overloaded. Otherwise, the mo-
tor may be damaged.
• On slopes, always work across the
slope. Take particular care when going
backwards and pulling the equipment.
• Clean the equipment after each use, as
described in the chapter on "Cleaning,
Maintenance and Storage".
Switch off the equipment
after work and in order to
transport it, disconnect the
plug and wait until the blade
stops. There is a risk of in-
jury.
Mulch mowing
With mulch mowing, the grass cuttings
are not collected in a catcher box, but are
shredded and distributed on the lawn. The
nutrients contained in the clippings are thus
left to be broken down by soil organisms
and form a nutrient cycle. Mulched lawns
therefore need to be fertilised much less
frequently.
As a basic rule, the lawn has to be mowed
relatively often so that only small amounts
of mulch remain on the lawn.
It is therefore best to mulch the lawn at
least once a week and to adjust the mower
so that only about 40% of the total height
of the lawn is left as mulch.
Cleaning, Maintenance
and Storage
Have work that is not de-
scribed in these instructions
carried out by a customer
service centre that we have
authorised. Use only original
parts.
Wear gloves when handling
the blade
Switch off the device, pull the
ignition key (11) and wait for the
blades to come to a stop. There is a
risk of personal injury.
General Cleaning and
Maintenance Work
Do not hose down the lawn-
mower with water. Electric
shock hazard
• Use the cleaning spatula (14) to re-
move grass residues from the underside
of the mower on the blade and around
the blade.
To do this, carefully lay the machine on
its side.
It is best to clean the mower directly af-
ter use.
The cleaning spatula (14) can
be clipped to the mower's pipe
for quick access.
