Set the desired cutting depth and start the machine. Start working on the lawn as close to the mains electric socket as possible in order to minimise the risk of running over the cable. The cable must not be run over under any circumstances.

The machine must not be rinsed with water. This will damage the machine’s electrical components and can produce fatal electric shocks.
Stop the machine and disconnect the connection cable.
