Switching off standby mode (figure A2)
– Press the on/off button (1) again.
The LED on the motor unit goes out.
If you do not plan to use the device for a long time:
– Remove the battery/batteries from the battery compartment N2.
11 CHANGING THE MOTOR SPEED (SWITCHING ENERGY-
SAVING MODE ON/OFF) (FIGURE F + H1)
The standard speed (TURBO) of the blade motor is 2800 revolutions per minute.
Adjustments to the motor speed can only be made when it is stopped.
To protect the battery and save energy, the speed can be lowered to 2400
revolutions per minute (ECO):
– Switch off the motor F, wait until the cutter bar comes to a standstill.
– Open the battery cover and hold it open.
– In the motor unit, change the speed adjustment button from "TURBO" to
"ECO" H1.
– Close the battery cover. Ensure that the cover closes automatically. Dirt and
grass residue can prevent this and must therefore be removed.
– To start the motor (see chapter "STARTING THE MOTOR").
The mower still only mows with 2400 revolutions per minute.
Restoring the standard speed:
– Switch off the motor F, wait until the cutter bar comes to a standstill.
– Open the battery cover and hold it open.
– In the motor unit, change the speed adjustment button from "ECO" to
"TURBO" H1.
– Close the battery cover. Ensure that the cover closes automatically. Dirt and
grass residue can prevent this and must therefore be removed.
– To start the motor (see chapter "STARTING THE MOTOR").
The mower mows with 2800 revolutions per minute again.
IMPORTANT
Only use the energy-saving mode in easy mowing conditions, such as on
short, dry grass and a lower mowing speed. Otherwise the cutting quality
may worsen or the ejection channel may become blocked.
12 STARTING THE MOTOR (FIGURE A2 + A3 + D)
Only start the motor when standing behind the mower. Do not stand on the ejection
side.
Always place the mower on a level area which is not covered with high grass (if the
grass is too high it will block the start-up of the cutter bar and make the starting
process more difficult). When the motor is started, the machine must not be tilted
on end, if necessary it must be tilted by pressing the guide bar down so that the
cutting tool is pointing in the direction away from the user, but only as far as
absolutely necessary. As long as the device is not on all 4 wheels, both of your
hands must be on the top part of the bar.
Beforehand, please ensure that there are one or two charged batteries in the
battery compartment (see chapter "Inserting the charged battery").
We recommend that you use two batteries with the same capacity, with at
least 7.5 Ah (ideally 12.0 Ah) and the same level of charge.
If only one battery is used or batteries with less than 7.5 Ah capacity, only
80% of the motor power is available.
– Press the on/off button on the motor unit to switch on standby mode (see
chapter "Switching standby mode on/off") A2.
– To switch on the motor, first press and hold the motor start unlocking button
(1) A3.
– With your other hand, pull the control bar (2) towards the top guide bar A3.
The control bar must remain held in this position during operation.
– You can now let go of the motor start unlocking button.
– The blade runs for as long as the safety control bar is kept pressed.
– When you let go of the safety control bar, the blade motor and blade stop.
– After you let go of the safety control bar, the device remains in standby mode
for 120 seconds – this is indicated by the LED light on the motor unit. As long
as this is lit, the blade motor can be started at any time by keeping the motor
start unlocking button held down and turning over the control bar again.
– If the blade motor is not started again within 120 seconds, standby mode
switches off automatically to conserve the battery or batteries.
Safety information!
For explanation of symbols, see the table on
The LED on the motor unit goes out.
To start the blade motor, switch on standby mode again.
13 SWITCHING OFF THE MOTOR (FIGURE F + N2)
– Release the safety control bar F.
– Wait for the cutter bar to stop completely.
– Remove the battery/batteries from the battery compartment N2.
14 EMERGENCY STOPPING
Release the safety control bar and the autodrive control bar.
– The blade motor stops and the blade comes to a standstill.
– The autodrive motor stops and the mower stops.
ATTENTION
Ensure before every mowing job that the safety control bar motor stop and
the autodrive control bar work properly:
– When the safety control bar is released, the blade must come to a
standstill within 3 seconds.
– When the autodrive control bar is released, the autodrive must stop
immediately and the mower must come to a standstill.
If this is not the case, please consult your nearest authorised workshop.
15 AUTODRIVE
NOTE
If the battery charge is too low, then the blade motor automatically switches
off. Charge the battery or batteries in good time beforehand.
Operation of the rear wheel drive (figure E2)
The rear wheel drive is switched on and off using the drive control bar (1) on the
upper guide bar (2) while the motor is running:
– Pull and hold the drive control bar = mower moves.
– Release the drive control bar = mower stops (0 position).
The drive control bar must always be firmly pulled towards the top bar.
Inappropriate actuation leads to wear of the transmission.
NOTE
The rear wheels click when the mower is pushed forward.
Speed adjustment (figure H)
IMPORTANT
The speed may only be adjusted while the motor is running to prevent any
page 5
damage!
NOTE
Excessive mowing speed leads to an unclean cut pattern or collection
result. Always adjust the speed to the individual circumstances. For cutting
longer grass, a lower travel speed should be selected.
The travel speed is adjusted with the rotary knob on the left.
– To adjust the speed, turn the knob in the desired direction to set the desired
travel speed. The arrow on the rotary knob indicates the travel speed.
– "Hare" position = fast (max. speed).
– "Tortoise" position = slow (min. speed).
16 MOWING
NOTE
If the battery charge is too low, then the blade motor automatically switches
off. Charge the battery or batteries in good time beforehand.
Using the machine on slopes
ATTENTION
The mower can be used on banks and slopes with a gradient of up to 48%
(26° angle).
For safety reasons, however, we urgently recommend you do not exploit this
theoretical performance potential to the full. Always make sure you have a
firm stance. Walk-behind lawn mowers should never be used for slopes with
a gradient in excess of 26% (15° angle of slope). Stability may be lost!
Checking operating safety
The lawn mower is fitted with a motor stop device.
