Working with the mulch plug
Tips on lawn care
Here are some tips t
o help you keep your
lawn looking healthy and ensure uniform
growth:
– Lawns consist of various grass types.
Frequent mowing promotes the growth of
grass, resulting in strong roots and a firm
sward. If you seldom cut the grass, you
will enhance the development of high-
growing types of grass and other weeds,
such as clover, daisies).
– The normal height of a lawn is approx.
4–5 cm. Only one third of the total height
should be mown; t
herefore cut 7–8 cm
long grass to normal height.
– Try not to cut the grass shorter than 4 cm,
otherwise the lawn wi
ll suffer during dry
periods.
– If the grass has grown particularly high
(for example, during a holiday period),
cut it back to its nor
mal height in several
stages.
– When mowing, always overlap the mown
swaths slightly.

Cleaning
Lawn mower

After mowing, always clean the
lawnmower with a hand brush.
Remove grass residues carefully out of
the cutting area. Remove stuck clipping
deposits using a stick.
Keep the ventilation slits clean and dust-
free.
Grass catcher
For thorough cleaning, the grass catcher
can be cleaned with a hose.
To ensure that the level indicator
functions correctly, regularly clean the
area under the level indicator on the
inside of the grass catcher with a hand
brush.
Replacing/regrinding the cutter
bar
WARNING!
To protect against injury from the cutter bar,
have a specialist garage perform all work
such as replacing or regrinding the cutter
bar (special tools required).
Spare parts must conform with the require-
ments specified by the manufacturer.
Therefore use original spare parts only or
spare parts authorised by the manufac-
turer.
When you need to mulch, simply
detach the grass catcher and attach
the mulch plug as illustrated.
The grass will be discharged downwards.
