The machine must be connected via an earth leakage circuit breaker with fault current 30 mA. There is otherwise a risk of fatal electric shocks.

The connection cable is connected to the ma- chine’s electric socket (3:N). The cable must then be secured in the relieving loop (3:K) before it leaves the machine.

Never run over the extension lead. Risk of fatal electric shocks.

5.1 Vertical cutting

Making vertical cuts in the lawn achieves the fol- lowing benefits:

The air can penetrate down into the soil layer, making it easier for moisture to evaporate. This counteracts the growth of moss.

Loose moss can be scarified and gathered in the collector.

The grass roots are divided, so increasing in number. This produces a denser lawn with more blades of grass.

5.2 Before use

When performing vertical cutting, the grass must be as short as possible, ideally not more than 4 cm long. Vertical cutting can be carried out with or without a collector. If the collector is not used, the waste will be dropped and distributed evenly be- hind the machine.
