mowing due to overheating, you must wait
approximately 5 minutes before restarting it.

Grass cutting

6.4.1
To use the machine proceed as follows:
1.
Start moving forward and mowing in the grass area.
2.
While mowing, make sure the electric cable
is always behind you and on the side of
the lawn that has already been cut.
3.
Regulate the forward speed and the cutting
height (par. 5.2) considering the conditions of
the lawn (the height, density and dampness of
the grass) and the amount of grass collected.
4.
The appearance of the lawn will improve
if you alternate cutting in both directions
at the same height (Fig.10).
6.4.2
Suggestions for maintaining a nice lawn
• To keep a lawn green and soft with a good appearance,
it should be cut regularly. A lawn can be composed of
different types of grass. If the lawn is cut frequently,
grass and roots grow more vigorously, forming a solid
grassy bed. If the lawn is cut is less frequently, higher
grass and weeds start growing (clover and daisies,
etc.). The frequency of mowing should be in relation
to the rate of growth of the grass, which should not be
left to grow too much between one cut and the next.
• The best height of the grass on a well-kept lawn
is approx. 4-5 cm. and with one mowing, you do
not need to remove more than a third of the total
height. If the grass is very tall, it should be cut twice
in a twenty-four hour period. The first time with
the cutting means at maximum cutting height and
the second cut at the height desired (Fig.11).
• Cutting too low tears and uproots the grass,
giving it a "spotted" appearance.
• During hot and dry periods, the grass should be cut a
little higher to prevent the ground from drying out.
• It is always better to cut the grass when dry. Do
not cut wet grass; this could reduce cutting means
efficiency due to sticky grass and tear the lawn.
• The cutting means must be in good condition and well
sharpened so that the grass is cut straight without a
ragged edge that leads to yellowing at the ends.
Emptying the grass catcher
6.4.3
When the grass catcher (Fig.1.E) is too full,
grass collection is no longer efficient and
the sound of the lawnmower changes.
