EMPTYING THE GRASS BAG 

As soon as grass clippings start to trail the lawnmower, it is time to empty the grass bag. 

NOTE:  

Before taking off the grass collector, switch off the motor & wait for the blade has come to a 
stop. Remove the electrical plug from the power source 

1.

To take off the grass collector, use one hand to lift the rear collector cover and the other 
to grab onto the grass collector carry handle. The rear collector cover automatically falls 
after removing the grass collector and closes off the rear chute opening. 

2.

 Empty the grass debris from the grass collector and refit.  

NOTE:  

If any grass residue is caught in the discharge chute, clean it using a brush. Do not remove 
grass debris in the mower deck or on the blade by hand or with your feet. Instead use 
suitable tools such as a brush or broom. To ensure that the cut grass can be collected into 
the grass collector, the discharge opening and inside the mower deck must be cleared of 
any blockage. 

 
MOWING TIPS 

1.

Start mowing as close as possible to the power socket. 

2.

Always keep the electrical cable and any extension lead on the section of lawn than has 
already been mown. 

3.

Maintain a constant cutting height of 30

–

50mm; do not shorten the grass to less than half 

its original height. 

4.

Do not overload the lawnmower! If the motor speed drops perceptibly due to long, heavy 
grass, increase the cutting height and mow several times. 

5.

Mow in the morning or late afternoon to prevent the freshly cut grass from drying out, 
especially in hot, dry seasons 

6.

During phases of strong growth, mow twice weekly; in periods of low rainfall, increase 
intervals between mowing accordingly. 

 
MOWING INSTRUCTIONS 

1.

Walk, never run with the mower, be very careful when mowing uneven or rough ground. 

2.

Be careful when changing the direction of the mower on a slope. Mow across the face 
of slopes, never down or up. 

3.

Do not mow excessively steep slopes. 

4.

Best results will be achieved if the grass is dry. Wet grass will clog the blade & grass 
collection system.  

5.

Grass grows at different rates at different times of the year. Never use the lowest cutting 
height for the first cut of the season or in drought conditions.  

6.

Do not remove grass debris in the mower deck or on the blade by hand or with your feet. 
Instead use suitable tools such as a brush or broom. 

7.

Check that all nuts, bolts and screws are well tightened. 

8.

Before mowing, place the grass collector in its position. 

9.

Before mowing make sure that the blade and the blade fixing screw are securely 
fastened. When blade cutting edges require re-sharpening, this must be done evenly on 
both sides, to prevent any imbalance. If you are unsure how to sharpen the blade, 
please visit an Approved Service Dealer. If the blade is damaged, it must be replaced. 

10.

When mowing, always wear a long trousers and strong footwear. 

11.

Work only when there is enough light. 

12.

Turn off the motor and remove the electrical plug from the power source, if you must 
leave the lawnmower unattended. 

13.

Never lift the rear of the mower while starting the motor. Never place your hands and 
feet underneath the deck or into the rear discharge chute while the motor is running. 

14.

Never change in any way the rated speed of the motor. 

15.

Never lift or carry the mower while the motor is running. 

16.

Stop the motor and remove the electrical cable from the power source in these cases: 

-

Before any operation under the deck or the rear discharge chute.
