English – 173. Select the required cutting height (1-9) with thecutting height lever.To obtain a uniform cutting height it is importantthat the tyre pressures are equal on both frontwheels (60 kPa).4. Push in the lock button on the lift lever and lowerdown the cutting unit.IMPORTANT INFORMATIONThe service-life of the drive belts increasesconsiderably if the engine is run at lowspeed when engaging the blades. For thisreason do not increase the throttle untilthe cutting unit has been lowered to thecutting position.Cutting tips• Localise and mark stones and other fixed objectsto avoid collision.• Start with a high cutting height and reduce downuntil the required cutting result are obtained.• The cutting results are best with a high enginespeed (fast rotating blades) and low drivingspeed (slow moving machine). If the grass is nottoo high and thick the driving speed can beincreased or the engine speed reduced withoutnoticeably affecting the mowing results.Mowing patternDRIVING• The best lawns are achieved if the grass is cutoften. Mowing becomes more uniform and thegrass cuttings become more evenly distributedover the surface. The total time consumption isnot greater since it is possible to select a higherdriving speed without inferior mowing results.• Avoid mowing a wet lawn. The mowing resultsare inferior since the wheels sink down into thesoft lawn.• Hose down the cutting unit with waterunderneath each time it is used. Put the cuttingunit in the service position first.• If you use the BioClip unit it is important to mowthe grass regularly.WARNING!Clear the lawn from stones andother object which can be thrownout by the blades.
