ASSEMBLING

HANDLEBAR

Fold up the handle. By tightly screwing the lower part of the handle into the steering sockets’ lower or upper holes (A or B), the steering height can be adapted to suit the operator (fig. 1).

Tighten the locking knobs to fix the upper part of the handle (fig. 2).

Finally secure the cables to the handle tube by us- ing the cable ties (fig. 3).

EYELET FOR STARTER HANDLE

Attach the starter handle to the eyelet on the steer- ing handle (fig. 4).

BATTERY (*)

Electrolyte in the battery is toxic and corrosive. It can cause serious corrosion damage etc. Avoid all contact with skin, eyes and clothing.

Before starting the mower the first time, you should charge the battery for 24 hours. Refer also to the sec- tion titled “MAINTENANCE, BATTERY”.

Insert the starter key into the ignition lock.

USING THE MOWER

GENERAL

Your new lawn mower combines two different functions in the same machine:

1. "MULTICLIP"

When delivered, the machine is equipped with a plug (P) mounted in the grass evacuation opening (fig. 28). The machine can be used for "Multiclip", i.e. when cutting the grass is finely chopped by the blade. The grass is then spread into the lawn where it decomposes. In this way, nutrients are put back into the lawn.

To remove the plug, press in the catch (S). When remounting the plug, make sure that both the pins are pressed down into the holes, so that the plug snaps into place.
