Preparing to Operate the Cylinder Mower

Step 3 - Adjusting the blade clearance (continued)

2. Wearing gloves, carefully rotate the cutting cylinder (C) by hand to ensure it very lightly brushes across the whole width of the bottom blade. If the blades are too difficult to turn, slightly loosen each adjustment screw (D).

3. While the blade reel is turning, insert a sheet of paper (thickness around 0.12mm) between the blade reel and the cutting bar. The paper should shear evenly along the entire length of the cutter bar, as if being cut by scissors. If the paper doesn’t shear, slightly tighten each adjustment screw(B) and repeat the test.

4. Turn the mower back over, plug it and try it. It should now be giving a clean and even cut. If not, unplug and re-adjust screws.

From time to time during use, it is advisable to carry out the above procedure to ensure that your cylinder mower is always cutting at its best.

Operating the Cylinder Mower

Operating

Technical Data

Technical Data Table

WARNING!

The vibration emission value during actual use of the tool can differ from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used. Identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).

The sound intensity level for the operator may exceed 85dB(A) and ear protection measures are necessary.

Recycling and Disposal

Disposal Instructions

1. Recycle unwanted materials instead of disposing of them as waste. All tools, hoses and packaging should be sorted, taken to the local recycling centre and disposed of in an environmentally safe way.

2. Recycle rather than dispose of unwanted material in landfill whenever possible. The machine must be delivered in rigid packaging to avoid damage during transportation. The packaging and the machine itself are manufactured from recyclable materials and should be disposed of accordingly.

3. Do not throw your clippings into a rubbish bin where it will be disposed of in landfill.You can dispose of clippings on your compost heap, alternating then with other garden material. The more thoroughly you chop the clippings beforehand, the more rapidly they will degrade. Alternatively, many communities provide a public collection point where you can dispose of your garden waste in an environmentally friendly manner.

4. Only dispose of electrical/electronic/battery iterms in separate collection schemes, which cater for the recovery and recycling of materials contained within. Your cooperation is vital to ensure the success of these schemes and for the protection of the environment.

5. Recycle packaging where facilities exist.

6. This symbol is known as the Crossed out Wheelie Bin Symbol. When this symbol is marked on a product or battery, it means that it should not be disposed of with your general household waste.

Some chemicals contained within electrical/electronic products or batteries can be harmful to health.

1. These guarantee terms cover additional guarantee rights and do not affect your statutory warranty rights.

Claims must be accompanied by Proof of Purchase. This must be in the form of a Sales receipt or Bank statement and must show that the product has been purchased within 2 year prior to the claim, from the retailer that it was originally sold to.

2. Our guarantee covers problems caused by material or manufacturing defects, and will result in the repair of these defects or replacement of the device with a like for like or similar article.

Please note that our devices have not been designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. Consequently, the guarantee is invalidated if the equipment is used in commercial, trade or industrial applications or for other equivalent activities.

A) Faults due to accidents, customer misuse, or unauthorized repairs

B) Consumable Parts such as Blades

4. The guarantee is valid for a period of 2 year starting from the purchase date of the device.

Guarantee claims should be submitted before the end of the guarantee period within two weeks of the defect being noticed. No guarantee claims will be accepted after the end of the guarantee period. The original guarantee period remains applicable to the device even if repairs are carried out or parts are replaced. In such cases, the work performed or parts fitted will not result in an extension of the guarantee period, and no new guarantee will become active for the work performed or parts fitted. This also applies when an on-site Service is used.

5. Please keep your sales receipt in a safe place. If the defect is covered by our guarantee your device will either be repaired under the terms of guarantee or we will send you a replacement device. This device may be re-conditioned or like for like replacement.
