OPERATION
1. Select your required cutting height.
2. Start the engine and allow it run. See “to start the engine”.
3. Hold the upper handle and push along it to start moving.
Working advices
1. Walk, never run, be very careful when mowing uneven or rough ground.
2. Mow across slopes, never up and down.
3. Be careful when changing the direction of the mower on a slope.
4. Do not mow excessively steep slopes.
5. The best result will be achieved if the grass is dry. Wet grass will tend to clog the
blade and the grass collection system.
6. Grass grows at different rates at different time of the year. Never use the lowest
cutting height for the first cut of the season or in drought conditions.
7. Only about one thirds of the grass height should be cut.
8. Do not remove grass debris in the mower casing or on the blade by hand or with your
feet. Instead use suitable tools such as a brush or broom.
Emptying the grass bag
As soon as grass clippings start to trail the lawn mower, it is time to empty the grass bag.
NOTE!
Before taking off the grass bag, switch off the engine and wait until the
blade has come to a stop.
1. To take off the grass bag, use one hand to lift up ejector flap and the other to grab
onto the carry handle. The ejector flap automatically falls down after removing the
grass bag and closes off the rear chute opening.
2. Empty the grass debris in the grass bag, and refit grass bag.
NOTE!
If any grass residue is caught in the discharge chute, clean it using a
brush. Do not removegrass debris in the mower casing 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 grass bag, the discharge opening and inside
the mower casing must be cleared of any blockage.
