Garland GRASS 755 SG Manual De Instrucciones página 43

Always follow the safety rules given in this manual.
7.1. HOLDING AND GUIDING THE MACHINE
While working, always hold the
lawnmower with both hands on the
handlebar.
Stand behind the mower and direct it while walking
behind it.
This lawnmower is self-propelled. Do not push the
mower; allow it to continue at its speed and limit
yourself to directing the machine in the work area.
This model has 4 different traction speed settings.
Choose the most convenient setting according to the
type of work.
7.2. ADJUSTING THE CUTTING HEIGHT
WARNING! Stop the machine and wait until the
blade stops before proceeding to adjust the height.
Blades need a few moments to stop completely after
you turn off the engine.
To regulate the cutting height
adjustment, press the mower level
away from the lawnmower and
move it forward or backward to
the desired height.
7.3. CUTTING WITH THE LAWNMOWER
Place the mower in a corner of the lawn area to be cut
and set the desired cutting height.
Check that the bag is properly installed; make sure
that the blade is not in contact with any object, and
start the mower.
Walk on the grass to the rhythm of the mower.
Do not tilt the machine with the engine running except
in the case that you have to start cutting tall grass,
which is the only case in which you may raise the
front wheels slightly to facilitate entry of the mower to
the work area.
Note: If the grass is very high it will be difficult for
you to start the engine. If the grass is very high, you
should slightly raise the lawnmower's front wheels,
forcibly pushing down with the handle, and start
your lawnmower in this position. Once the engine
has acquired the normal engine speed slowly lower
the mower wheels while the machine starts to cut.
Alternatively, if next to the lawn area there is a flat
surface free of objects and without grass (Earth,
screed, concrete), start the lawnmower in the clear
area and entering the grass area by slightly lifting the
front wheels of the lawnmower.
If the engine's rotation speed goes into excess or
it stops, it means that the grass is too high for the
lawnmower's cutting capacity and forcing this can be
harmful to the machine. In this case, make a first cut
at the machine's maximum height and then a second
cut at the desired height.
7.4. EMPTYING THE BAG
Empty the lawnmower's bag as soon as you notice
it is full. You will notice that the bag is full because
the mower will stop picking up the cut grass as well,
leaving many remains on the ground.
Whenever you are going to empty the bag, turn off the
engine and check that the blade has stopped before
removing the bag.
1. Lift the lid from the rear exit.
2. Lift the sack.
