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
This mower has 2 different work settings (pickup
mowing and rear discharge mowing). Before starting
work you must configure the mower to work in one of
two ways.
Cut with collection:
In this configuration the mower will cut the grass and
send it to the collection bag. The grass will be cut and
the rest of the cut grass inside the bag.
For pick-up cutting, place the bag at the rear of the
machine.
Rear discharge cut:
Configuration in which the cut grass will come out
from the rear of the machine leaving the grass debris
on the lawn. In this case, the machine must not have
the bag installed and the rear outlet cover will remain
slightly open. To do this, press on the tab on the back
cover and lift the cover, then release the tab and the
cover will be slightly open.
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.
