Some of the causes for this are:
Cuts caused by driving over the cable.
Pinching when the power cable is dragged
under doors and pulled through windows.
Cracking due to old age of the insulation.
Kinking by improperly fastening or guiding the
power cable.
The power cables must, at the very minimum, be
of type HO5RN-F and 3-stranded. The cable type
must be printed somewhere on the power cable.
Only purchase power cables that are marked!
Plugs and socket couplers for the power cables
must be made from rubber and splash-proof.
There is a limit to how long power cables can be.
Longer power cables require larger conductor
cross-sections. Power cables and connecting li-
nes must be regularly checked for damage. Ensu-
re that the lines are switched off before checking
them. Completely unwind the power cable. Also
check power cable entry points, plugs and socket
couplers for kinks.

6. Operation

Before you connect the equipment to the power
supply make sure that the data on the rating plate
are identical to the supply voltage. Connect the
plug (Fig. 1/Item 9) to an extension cable. It is
imperative to secure the extension cable with the
cable grip as shown in Fig. 6.
Caution!
To prevent the machine switching on accidentally,
the lawn mower is equipped with a safety lock-off
(Fig. 6/Item 11) which must be pressed before the
button switches (Fig. 6/Item 12) can be activated.
The lawn mower switches itself off when the but-
ton switches are released. Repeat this process
several times so that you are sure that the ma-
chine functions properly. Before you perform any
repair or maintenance work on the equipment,
ensure that the blade is not rotating and that the
power supply is disconnected.
Important! Never open the chute fl ap when
the grass bag has been detached (to be emp-
tied) and the motor is still running. A rotating
blade can cause serious injuries!
Always carefully fasten the chute fl ap and grass
basket. Switch off the engine before emptying the
grass basket.

Always ensure that a safe distance (provided
by the length of the long handles) is maintained
between the user and the mower housing. Be
especially careful when mowing and changing
direction on slopes and inclines. Maintain a solid
footing and wear sturdy, non-slip footwear and
long trousers.
Always mow along the incline (not up and down).
For safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be
used to mow inclines whose gradient exceeds 15
degrees.
Use special caution when backing up and pulling
the lawn mower. Tripping hazard!
Tips for proper mowing
It is recommended that you overlap the mowing
swaths.
Only use a sharp blade that is in good condition.
This will prevent the grass blades from fraying
and the lawn from turning yellow.
Try to mow in straight lines for a nice, clean look.
The swaths should overlap each other by a few
centimeters in order to avoid stripes.
How frequently you should mow your lawn is
determined primarily by the speed at which the
grass grows. In the main growing season (May
- June) you will probably need to mow the lawn
twice a week, otherwise just once a week. The
cutting height should be between 4 - 6cm and the
amount of growth before mowing again should be
4 - 5cm. If the grass is allowed to grow somewhat
longer for whatever reason, do not make the mis-
take of cutting it back to the normal height in one
go. This will harm the lawn. Never cut it back by
more than half the height in one go.
Keep the underside of the mower housing clean
and remove grass build-up. Deposits not only
make it more diffi cult to start the mower; they
decrease the quality of the cut and make it harder
for the equipment to bag the grass.
Always mow along inclines (not up and down).
You can prevent the lawn mower from slipping
down by holding a position at an angle upwards.
Select the cutting height according to the length
of the grass. Make several passes so that no
more than 4cm of grass are cut at one time.
