100053 (1) 27/4/04 11:24 am Page 1.8 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Operation Use extreme caution when reversing or pulling the mower towards you. Switch off if the mower has to be tilted for transportation when crossing surfaces other than grass and when transporting the mower to and from the area to be mowed. Never operate the mower unless the guards are securely in position and in good condition. Start the mower carefully, with feet well away from the cutterblade.

100053 (1) 27/4/04 11:24 am Page 1.11 OPERATING THE MOWER Electrical Connection Position the mower on the grass area to be cut. Carefully uncoil the supply cable clear of the mower. Ensure that the mains socket is switched 'OFF' before connecting. Switch 'ON'. Note: We recomend the use of a RCCB unit- Refer to "Safety Precautions" - Preparation. Starting Locate the bail arm lever mounted on the handlebar and ensure that your feet are clear of the mower deck.
100053 (1) 27/4/04 11:24 am Page 1.12 OPERATING THE MOWER Stopping Release the bail arm to stop the motor. WARNING: AVOID ACCIDENTS - The cutterblade may continue to rotate after the mower is switched off Height of Cut 30 51 13 Move the height of cut lever sideways to disengage it from the locking notch, then push forwards to lower or pull backwards to raise the height of cut. Release the lever in the required position and ensure that it locks firmly into one of the seven notch settings.
100053 (1) 27/4/04 11:24 am Page 1.13 OPERATING THE MOWER Grassbag To empty the grassbag raise the rear deflector and pass the grassbag under the handlebar and lower the rear deflector to rest against the rear of the mower. Pour out the grass clippings and shake the grassbag vigorously to clean the airways. Good grass collection depends on good air flow through the grassbag. When collecting grass clippings it is important that the grassbag is emptied regularly to prevent blockages and motor overloading.
100053 (1) 27/4/04 11:24 am Page 1.14 OPERATING THE MOWER Safe Mower Practice WARNING: PREVENT ACCIDENTS -Take extreme care do not mow across the supply cable. If this should occur, switch off immediately and disconnect the plug from the power supply. Carefully examine the cable for cuts and damage. A defective cable must be replaced before the mower is used again. Always be aware of the location of the supply cable in relationship to the mower and the grass area.
100053 (1) 27/4/04 11:24 am Page 1.15 OPERATING THE MOWER Overloading Protection Do not let the motor labour or slow down through being overloaded in work. When this situation occurs, raise the front of the mower slightly by bearing down on the handlebar, allow the motor to reach maximum speed and proceed to mow at a slower pace. Alternatively readjust to a higher cut position. If the motor continues to labour, switch off and remove the plug from the mains supply. Remove and empty the grassbag.
100053 (1) 27/4/04 11:24 am Page 1.16 LAWN CARE CALENDAR To be used as a guide only. January There is very little work to do this month apart from brushing away leaves. Keep off the grass if frozen or waterlogged. February Rake the grass thoroughly. Spike the lawn to aerate and stimulate soil organisms and root growth and apply lawn sand if necessary. March The yearly lawn work programme really starts this month. As soon as the ground conditions are suitable, the first cut can be made.
100053 (1) 27/4/04 11:24 am Page 1.17 LAWN CARE CALENDAR August Keep mowing regularly and watering as necessary. Fill any cracks caused by drought with a mixture of sharp sand and soil. In dry weather conditions leave the grass longer to help retain ground moisture. September Raise the height of cut to allow the grass to thicken and protect the roots from the winter frost and snow. October Rake out the thatch from the turf and spike the lawn to assist in drainage. Brush in peat and sharp sand.
100053 (1) 27/4/04 11:24 am Page 1.18 MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE Follow the hourly or calendar intervals, whichever occurs first.
