Height of cut adjustment (Fig. C)
Before wheel assembly adjustment ensure
your mower is disconnected from the mains.
Each of the two axle wheels has its own
means of height adjustment which gives
3 cutting height positions.

To ensure an even cut, please make sure
that all four wheels are placed in the same

How to use your mower (Fig. E & G)
!
Observe all of the relevant warnings when
using your mower.
G
We recommend the directional method of
operation to obtain the maximum cutting
performance from your mower and to reduce
the risk of the trailing extension lead from
entering the cutting path.
• Place the bulk of the supply cable on the
lawn close to the starting point (Fig. G,
position 1).
• Hold the handle assembly with both
hands.
Your switch box incorporates a cable
restraint. To fix the cable to the restraint,
proceed as follows:
• Bring the socket end of the extension
cable from behind and connect it to your
mower plug.
• Form a loop on your extension cable
close to the switch box.
E1
• Push the loop through the slot from the
opposite side of the restraint hook (Fig. E1),
position the loop over the h ook and pull
the cable back through the slot. Your
cable will now be restrained.
• The extension cable should now fall
away from your mower and behind the
operator, ready for use.
!
Warning! Do not attempt to operate your
mower with one hand - you must guide it
with both hands.

• Tilt the handle downwards to slightly
raise the front of your mower and to
reduce the risk of lawn damage whilst
