7. Use the chart to see how many blade height spacers
are required to achieve the desired cutting height of the
grass..
No. of blade height spacers Cutting height (approx)
0 30mm
1 24mm
2 18mm
3 12mm
Note. Do not set the cutting height too low, especially
at the beginning of the mowing season. Cutting the
grass too low will discourage its growth and allow weed
proliferation. You will achieve a far better lawn by cutting
it less short and mowing more often.
8. Fit the required number
of spacers (13 and 21) to
achieve the desired cutting
height taking care to ensure
that the raised lugs on one
spacer locate in the holes of
the next spacer.
9. Fit the blade (19) taking
care to ensure that the lugs
on the top spacer fit into
the two outside holes in the blade (19).
10. Insert the blade bolt (20) and tighten it (clockwise
when viewed from underneath) using the blade
spanner (12).
11. Store the blade spanner (12) and any unused blade
height spacers (13) in a safe location.

the grass box (10).
Before starting
Before use, check that the mower is in good working order.
1. Ensure the power button is in the off position and
disconnect the cable plug from the mains supply.
2. Examine the general condition of the mower. Inspect
the body underneath the cover, blade, switch, power
cord and extension cord (if used). Check for loose
screws, misalignment, binding of moving parts,
improper mounting, broken parts and any other
condition that may affect its safe operation. If
abnormal noise or vibration occurs during operation,
turn the mower off immediately and have the problem
corrected. Do not use a damaged tool.
3. Ensure that you are on a flat surface and have secure
footing.
4. Check that the upper handle (1) is in line with the
lower handle (8) and that the wing knobs (5) are
securely tightened.
Switching on and off
IMPORTANT. Practise switching on and switching off the
mower as detailed below before using it to cut grass for
the first time. Start the mower on a hard, level surface
(such as a driveway) that is free of debris.
1. Connect the power cable (22) to the power point.
2. Squeeze one of the motor on/off grips (4) towards the
upper handle (1) and use the other hand to press the
power button (2). The power button remains depressed
as long as the pressure is maintained on the motor on/
off grip (4).
