1. Start mowing the edge of the lawn nearest to the
power point so the cable is laid out on the lawn
you have already cut.
2. Mow twice a week during the growing season,
your lawn will suffer if more than a third of its
length is cut at one time and this may also result
in poor collection.
Do Not Overload Your Mower
Mowing long thick grass may cause the motor
speed to drop, you will hear a change in the motor
sound. If the motor speed drops you may overload
your lawnmower which may cause damage. When
mowing in long thick grass a first cut with the cutting
height set higher will help reduce the load. See
Adjusting the Cutting Height.
REMEMBER: For best grass collection always
mow in a straight line, do not swing the lawnmower
from side to side.
Adjusting the Cutting Height
Always handle the blade with care - sharp edges
could cause injury. USE GLOVES. Never use
more than 3 Cutting Height Spacers. Spacers
must only be fitted between the blade and the fan
and NEVER between the blade and the bolt.
1. Remove the blade bolt, and blade as described in
Removing the Blade and Fan.
2. For a Lower Cut - Add spacers to a maximum of 3.
3. For a Higher Cut - Take spacers away.
4. Refit the blade as described in Fitting the Blade and Fan.

To Start your Lawnmower
Your lawnmower uses an advanced belt drive sys-
tem, between the motor and the blade which
improves cutting power and flotation in all condi-
tions. Due to the high turning force (Torque) which
this motor develops a light squeak may be heard
when the machine is started, this is quite normal and
will not effect the performance of the product
