also produces an evenly resilient lawn.
The first 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.
• Start mowing near the socket and work
away from the socket.
• Always keep the extension cable be-
hind you and when you turn, move
it to the side that has already been
mowed.
• 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
injury.

General Cleaning and
Maintenance Work
Do not hose down the lawn-
mower with water.
• Always keep the equipment clean. To
clean, use a brush or cloth but no de-
tergent or solvent.
• After mowing, use a piece of wood
or plastic to remove adherent plant
remains from the wheels, ventilation
holes, ejection hole and blade area.
Do not use hard or pointed objects, as
these may damage the blade.
• Oil the wheels from time to time.
• Before each use, check the lawnmower
for obvious defects such as loose, worn
or damaged parts. Check that all nuts,
bolts and screws are sitting firmly.
• Check the covers and protective de-
vices for damage and check that they
are sitting correctly. Replace them if
necessary.

Changing the Blade

If the blade is blunt, it can be sharpened
by a specialist workshop. If the blade is
damaged or showing signs of imbalance,
it must be replaced (see chapter on "Spare
Parts").
