Operation
Level indicator (8)
The level indicator is pressed upwards by the air
stream during mowing (8a). When the grass cat-
cher is full, the level indicator rests against the cat-
cher (8b). The grass catcher needs to be emptied.
Emptying the grass catcher (9)
1. Lift the baffle plate.
2. Unhook the grass catcher and remove it to the
rear.
3. Empty grass catcher.
4. Lift up the baffle plate and hang the grass cat-
cher back into the holders. (7)
Switching on the motor (10)
The motor of this lawnmower does not
accelerate to its full speed immediately
when the motor is started.
Only when you move the lawnmower
onto the grass to be mown does it detect
the grass and accelerate the motor to the
maximum blade speed, then it remains
at the maximum blade speed.
This audible increase in the motor's
noise level is completely normal and me-
ans that the lawnmower is cutting at the
optimum blade speed.
Start the lawn mower only on level ground, and
not in high grass. The ground must be free from
foreign objects, such as stones. Do not lift or tilt
the lawn mower to start it.
1. Insert the safety key again and turn it (3b).
2. Keep the start button pressed (10a).
3. Pull the safety bar toward the handle bar and
hold it there (10b).
4. Release the start button.
Check the charge level of the battery while
mowing the lawn (12)
1. Switching off the motor (11).
2. Open the battery compartment (2).
3. Press the test button on the battery: If the LED
lights up green, there is still charge in bat-
tery and you can continue mowing. If the LED
lights up red, the battery is discharged and re-
quires recharging (12).
Switching off the motor (11)
1. Release the safety bar.
2. Wait until the cutter blade stops.
3. Remove the safety key from the mower (3a).

INFORMATION ON WORKING

Observe the local regulations on opera-
ting lawn mowers.
Remove foreign objects from the working
area.
Keep others away from dangerous areas.
Use the mower only if visibility is good
Guide the machine at walking pace.
Mow only with a sharp cutting blade
Do not mow over obstacles (e.g. branches,
roots of trees).
Mow only across slopes. Do not use the mo-
wer up or down slopes and not on slopes with
more than a slant of 20 degrees.
Added care must be taken on slopes when
changing direction
The operating period of the lawn mower bat-
tery depends on the condition of the battery,
the condition of the lawn and the setting of the
cutting height. Frequently switching the mo-
wer on and off reduces the operating time
# Optimum operating time is obtained by fre-
quent mowing of the lawn and maintaining a
short-cut lawn
Operating time at 100% battery charge in m²
per battery
Cut of 6 cm to 4 cm: Up to 300 m² for well-
cared for, dry lawn; thin grass
Cut of 8 cm to 4 cm: Up to 200 m² for normal
grass
Cut of 8 cm to 4 cm: Up to 150 m² for dense
grass
Mowing tips
Constant cutting height 3–5 cm, do not cut
more than half the height of the lawn
Do not overload the lawn mower! If the motor
speed is greatly reduced due to long, heavy
grass, raise the cutting height and mow se-
veral times
Since wind and sun can dry out the lawn after
mowing, mow the lawn in the late afternoon
