Assembly
1. Remove the lawnmower and attachments from
the packaging and check if all parts are available.
2. Screw down the lower push bar (4a) with one M8
round head screw (a), one plastic washer (i) and one
plastic star nut (d) each, together with one plastic
holder (j) on both sides. When doing so, make sure
that the cable pulls, which will later be attached with
a cable clip (e), are not in the way. (Fig. 2-3).
3. Screw the upper push bar (4) to the lower push
bar (4a) with a quick-release lever (5), a washer
large (c), a washer small (b) and a plastic star nut
(d) on both sides (fig. 4-5).
4. Pull the throttle cable through the electric starter
unit (18) as shown in figure 5a.
5. Use a pliers to place the throttle cable in the en-
gine brake lever (3). (Fig. 5b-5c)
6. Secure the electric starter unit (18) to the upper
push bar (4) using the screws (f). (fig. 5d)
7. Insert the handle of the pull cable starter (17) in
the designated hook as shown in fig. 6.
8. Fix the cables to the push bar with the cable clip
(e) provided (Fig. 7).
9. Catch basket (16) - open it up and click the plastic
clips into position on the frame. (Fig. 8)
10. Mowing without the catch basket:
Lift the discharge flap (15) with one hand and
hook in the catcher bag (16) as shown in Fig.9.
11. Mowing with side discharge (8):
Lift the side discharge flap and insert the side dis-
charge adapter (fig. 15/15a). If attached, remove
the catch basket (16) and install the mulching in-
sert (19).
12. Mulching:
If the catch basket (16) is attached, remove it and
replace it with the mulching insert (19) as shown
in fig. 10-12.
Attention:
The side discharge cover must not be installed when
mulching.
Setting the cutting height
m Attention! Adjust the cutting height only when
the engine is switched off and the plug boot has
been pulled.
• Before you begin to mow, check to ensure that the
blade is not blunt and that none of the fasteners are
damaged.
• To prevent any imbalance, replace blunt and/or
damaged blades as a set only (if applicable). To
carry out this check, first switch off the engine and
pull the spark plug connector.
• The cutting height is centrally adjusted with the
wheel height adjustor lever (fig. 13/ item 14). 7 dif-
ferent cutting heights can be selected.
• Pull the adjustor lever out and select the desired
cutting height. The lever snaps into the desired po-
sition (fig. 13).
Preparing the area to be mowed
Before mowing, carefully examine the area. Remove
stones, sticks, bones, wires, toys and other objects
that may be ejected by the device.
9. Start up
m Attention!
The engine does not come with oil in it. Therefore,
ensure that you add oil before starting it up. Use
normal multigrade oil (SAE 30 / 10W-30 / 10W-40).
The oil level in the engine must be checked each
time before mowing. You will also need to fill in
petrol, as this is also not supplied upon delivery.
• To prevent the lawn mower from starting uninten-
tionally, it is equipped with an engine brake lever
(fig. 1, item 3), which must be actuated before the
lawn mower is started. When the engine control le-
ver is released it must return to its initial position, at
which point the engine automatically switches off.
• Press the engine brake lever (3) together and give
the pull cable starter (17) a vigorous pull. (Fig. 14)
