Note:
1. Set the axle in the upper position for the lowest cutting height, the middle position for the medium height, and lowest
position for the highest cut.
2. All wheels must be at the same position.
3. The lowest cutting height is only suitable for trimming a very level, short lawn. High and medium positions are recommended
for normal use. Never use the mower with the wheels set in different positions.
STARTING AND STOPPING
!
NOTE: The blade continues to rotate for a few seconds after the machine is switched off. Allow the motor/blade to stop
rotating before switching "on" again. Do not rapidly switch off and on.
Starting:
1. Set the mower to the required 'cutting height' .
2. Press and hold the safety button(6).
3. Squeeze the switch lever(7) towards the handle.
Stopping:
Release the switch lever.
OPERATION
MOWING
Place the lawnmower on the edge of the lawn, as close to the power point as possible. Work away from the power point.
Position the cable to opposite side (already cut) at the end of each turn.
WARNING: When mowing do not allow the motor to labour particularly in heavy conditions. When the motor labours the
!
speed of the motor drops and you will hear a change in the motor sound, when this occurs stop mowing, release the switch
lever and raise the height of cut.
Failure to do so could damage the machine.
HEAVY GROWTH
1. Areas of heavy growth should be mown without collecting the clippings.
2. If collection is required, firstly mow the area using the maximum cutting height setting, without the grass collection bag
attached.
3. Allow the clippings to dry out.
4. Attach the grass collection bag and mow the area, again using the maximum cutting height setting.
5. Progressively lower the cutting height setting and mow the area again until the required finish is obtained.
!
NOTE: To prevent damage to the grass, do not remove more than one third of the grass's height on any one cut.
!
NOTE: When the blade becomes jammed or if the motor is overloaded, remove the plug from the power supply.
Clear any obstruction and wait for a few minutes before continuing to use the mower
