Installing the battery (Fig. 17)
Open the battery cover. Then insert the batteries
in the mounts as shown in Fig. 17.
Important!
Use only batteries which are charged to the same
level. Never combine full and half-full batteries.
Always charge the two batteries simultaneously.
The equipment's operating time depends on
the battery with the lower charge level. The two
batteries must always be fully charged before
use. Close the battery cover by fl ipping the cover
down.
6. Operation
Caution!
The lawn mover is equipped with a safety circuit
to prevent unauthorized use. Directly before star-
ting up the lawn mover insert the safety plug (Fig.
18/Item 17) and remove the safety plug again
whenever you interrupt or terminate your work.
Important!
To prevent the equipment switching on acciden-
tally, the lawn mower is equipped with a safety
switch (Fig. 6/Item 2) which must be pressed
before the switching bar (Fig. 6/Item 3) can be ac-
tivated. The lawn mower switches itself off when
the switching bar is released. The start time can
amount to several seconds. Repeat this process
several times so that you are sure that the ma-
chine functions properly. Before you perform any
repair or maintenance work on the equipment,
ensure that the blade is not rotating and that the
safety plug is disconnected.
Caution! Never open the chute fl ap when the
grass bag has been detached (to be emptied)
and the motor is still running. A rotating bla-
de can cause serious injuries!
Always carefully fasten the chute fl ap 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.
Use special caution when backing up and pulling
the lawn mower. Tripping hazard!
Tips for proper mowing
It is recommended that you overlap the mowing
swaths.
Only use a sharp blade that is in good condition.
This will prevent the grass blades from fraying
and the lawn from turning yellow.
Try to mow in straight lines for a nice, clean look.
The swaths should overlap each other by a few
centimeters in order to avoid stripes.
The operating time of the rechargeable batteries
and therefore the area in square meters that can
be covered with a single battery charge is largely
dependent on the state of the grass (e.g. density,
moisture, height, cutting height, etc.) and the mo-
wing speed (walking speed). To adjust the area
coverage to your individual requirements, it is
recommended that you mow the lawn more often,
with a higher cutting height and at an appropriate
speed. Frequently turning the equipment on and
off while mowing will also reduce the amount of
area that you can cover. If the operating time of
the rechargeable batteries (area coverage) is still
unsatisfactory in spite of the above measures,
you can remedy the problem by using rechargea-
ble batteries with a larger capacity (Ah).
How frequently you should mow your lawn is
determined primarily by the speed at which the
grass grows. In the main growing season (May
- June) you will probably need to mow the lawn
twice a week, otherwise just once a week. The
cutting height should be between 4 - 6cm and the
amount of growth before mowing again should be
4 - 5cm. If the grass is allowed to grow somewhat
longer for whatever reason, do not make the mis-
take of cutting it back to the normal height in one
go. This will harm the lawn. Never cut it back by
more than half the height in one go.
Keep the underside of the mower housing clean
and remove grass build-up. Deposits not only
make it more diffi cult to start the mower; they
decrease the quality of the cut and make it harder
for the equipment to bag the grass.
