Danger: The blade begins to rotate as soon as

the engine is started.

6.1 Starting the engine

For detailed information on starting the engi-

ne, refer to the enclosed manual from Briggs

& Stratton.

Drive unit

Drive lever/clutch lever (Fig. 5a/Item 1b):

If you press this (Fig. 5c) the clutch for the drive

will be closed and the lawnmower will start to

move with the engine running. Release the drive

lever in good time to stop the moving lawnmower.

Practice starting and stopping before you use the

mower for the rst time until you are familiar with

controlling the mower.

6.2 Tips on mowing properly

Danger!

Never open the chute ap when the grass

bag has been detached (to be emptied) and

the engine is still running. The rotating blade

can cause serious injuries!

Always carefully fasten the chute ap and

debris bag. Switch o the engine before you

remove them.

Whenever you need to perform any kind of

adjustment, maintenance or repair work,

switch o the engine and wait until the blade

no longer rotates. Pull o the spark plug con-

nector.

Mowing

The engine is congured for an optimal grass cut-

ting speed, for ejecting grass into the debris bag,

and for many years of use.

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.

Keep the underside of the mower housing clean

and remove grass build-up. Deposits not only

make it more di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. If necessary, mow a number of times

so that you never cut more than 4cm of grass in

one go.

Switch o the engine before doing any checks on

the blade. Keep in mind that the blade continues

to rotate for a few seconds after the engine has

been switched o. Never attempt to manually

stop the blade. Regularly check to see if the

blade is securely attached, is in good condition

and is sharp. If the contrary is the case, sharpen

the blade or replace it. In the event that the blade

strikes an object, immediately switch o the lawn

mower and wait for the blade to come to a com-

plete stop. Then inspect the condition of the blade

and the blade mount. Replace any parts that are

damaged.

Mulching (Fig. 4b)

In mulching mode the cuttings are shredded in

the enclosed mower housing and then spread

back onto the lawn. It is not necessary to gather

and dispose of the grass.

Mulching is only possible if the lawn is relatively

short. Optimum results can be achieved only with

a mulching blade (available as an accessory).

To use the mulching function, disconnect the deb-

ris bag, slide the mulching adaptor into the ejector

opening (Item 4b) and close the ejector opening.

To remove the mulching adapter, press the lever

(A) as shown in Figure 4b.

Side ejector (Fig. 6)

You should t the mulching adaptor in order to

use the side ejector. Connect the side ejector ad-

aptor (Item 4d) as shown in Figure 6.

6.3 Switching o the engine

All you have to do to switch o the engine is

release the engine start/stop lever (Fig. 5a/

Item 1a). Pull o the spark plug connector from

the spark plug in order to prevent the engine from

starting. Before you start the engine again, check

the cable of the engine brake. Check that the

actuator cable is correctly tted. If the switch-o

cable is kinked or damaged, it must be replaced.
