STOP

ASSEMBLING

HANDLEBAR

1.Set the highest cutting height (position 4, see also under heading “CUTTING HEIGHT”)

2.The parts used for installation of the lower sec- tion of the steering handle are installed in a pack- age. Remove the parts from the lower hole on the chassis. Then fold the lower section of the steer- ing handle up and fit the parts.NOTE that the washer A should be fitted between the screw and the plastic bushing (fig. 1).

3.Fold the upper section of the steering handle up and tighten the lock knobs (fig. 2).

USING THE MOWER

CONNECTING

Connect the machine to an earthed, single phase electric socket. The circuit must be protected by a 10A slow fuse.

Only use an extension cable that is approved for outdoor use. If you are unsure of anything, please contact your dealer.

Check that the extension cable is not damaged, each time before using the machine. The machine may not be used if the extension cable is damaged.Re- lieve the extension cable in the load relief unit on the steering handle (fig. 3, 4).

We recommend that you use an earth leakage cir- cuit breaker that will cut off the power if anything happens to the machine or the extension lead. If you use a portable earth leakage circuit breaker this must be fitted between the electric socket and the extension lead.Test the operation of the earth leakage circuit breaker before use.

If uncertain, contact your retailer.

Through poor conditions of the electrical mains, short voltage drops can appear when starting the equipment. This can influence other equipment (e.g. blinking of a lamp).

If the mains-impedance Zmax < 0,28+j0,17 ohm such disturbances are not probable.

START/STOP OF ENGINE

Keep hands and feet well away from the rotating blade(s). Never put your hand or foot under the blade casing or in the grass evacuation unit while the motor is running.

When starting up the motor, press the handlebar to lift the front wheels and in that way reduce the re- sistance from the grass at the starting moment.

Do not engage and disengage the motor repeatedly since this will build up heat because of the high cur- rent when starting, and this could, consequently, cause motor damages.

Press the block button 1. Start the engine by press- ing in the start handle 2 against the steering (fig. 5). Release the start handle to stop the engine.
