Always switch off the engine before carrying out any
adjustments, maintenance or repairs.
Note:
1. Engine brake (Fig. 5a/Item 1): Use the lever to
stop the engine. When you release the lever the
engine and the blade stop automatically (Fig.
5b). To mow, hold the lever in the working
position. Before you start to mow, check the
start/stop lever several times to be sure that it is
working properly. Ensure that the tension cable
can be smoothly operated (i.e. is not catching or
kinking in any way).
2. Speed lever (Fig. 6): Move this lever in order to
increase or decrease the engine speed. (Tortoise
= Slow / Hare = Fast)
3. Drive lever (clutch lever) (Fig. 5a/Item 19): If you
press this (Fig. 5c) the clutch for the drive will be
closed and the lawnmower will start to move with
the motor running.
Release the drive lever in good time to stop the
moving lawnmower. Practice starting and
stopping before you use the mower for the first
time until you are familiar with controlling the
mower.
4. Caution: The blade begins to rotate as soon as
the engine is started.
Important:
Before you start the engine, move the motor
brake several times to be sure that the stop
cable is properly working. Note: The engine is
factory set to a speed that is optimal for cutting
and blowing grass into the basket and is
designed to provide many years of use.
5. Check the oil level.
6. Fill the tank with petrol when it is empty, using a
funnel and measuring vessel. Make sure that the
petrol is clean.
Note: Use only unleaded petrol as fuel.
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.
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. 5d/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. 5e/Item 21) as shown in Figure
5e.
Filling level indicator debris bag
The debris bag is equipped with a filling level
indicator (Fig. 2/Item 6). This will be opened by the air
current produced by the mower. If the flap falls during
mowing, the debris bag is full and should be emptied.
To ensure that the filling level indicator works
properly, the holes under the flap must be kept clean
and permeable.
Setting the speed (Vario Speed)
Up to 4 different speed settings can be selected. The
slowest speed setting is setting 1, the fastest setting
4. To set the speed, move the lever (Fig. 9/Item 12) to
the required position.
Important. The speed must only be set while the
engine is running and the drive lever is actuated (Item
19).
7.1 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
