Check regularly that the blade is correctly secured, in
good condition and well ground. If not, grind or
replace the blade. If the moving blade strikes an
object, stop the mower and wait until the blade has
come to a complete standstill. Then check the
condition of the blade and the blade holder. If they
are damaged, they must be replaced.
Place the mains lead in loops on the ground in front
of the socket. Mow away from the socket and cable
and ensure that the mains lead is always on the
section of lawn that you have already mowed so that
you do not run over the mains lead with the mower.
As soon as you see mown grass on the lawn whilst
you are mowing, the grass bag will need emptying.
Important!
Before you remove the grass bag switch off the
motor and wait until the cutting tool reaches a
standstill.
To remove the grass bag, raise the discharge flap
with one hand and remove the grass bag using its
handle with your other hand.
To maintain safety, the discharge flap will close when
you remove the grass back to seal the rear discharge
opening. If any grass residues are caught in the
opening, it is a good idea to pull the mower
backwards around 1 m to make it easier to start the
motor.
Do not remove grass cuttings in the mower casing or
on the cutter by hand or with your feet. Instead use
suitable tools such as a brush or broom.
To ensure that it can collect the grass correctly the
grass bag and in particular the net must be cleaned
from the inside after use.
Only attach the grass bag after switching off the
motor and the cutting tool has reached a standstill.
Raise the discharge flap with one hand and, holding
the grass bag by its handle in your other hand, attach
it from the top.
8. Cleaning, maintenance and ordering
of spare parts
Always pull out the mains power plug before starting
any cleaning work.
8.1 Cleaning
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it
with compressed air at low pressure.
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished using it.
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts
of the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep
into the device.
8.2 Replacing the blade
For safety reasons, we recommend having the blade
replaced by an authorized professional.
Important.
Wear work gloves!
Only replace the blade with a genuine Einhell
replacement blade, as this will ensure top
performance and safety under all conditions.
Carry out the following steps to change the blade:
Undo the fastening screw (Fig. 7).
Remove the blade and replace with a new one.
When fitting the blade, make sure it is installed in
the right direction. The blade’s air vanes must jut
into the motor compartment.
Then retighten the fastening screw. The
tightening torque should be approx. 25 Nm.
8.3 Carbon brushes
In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon
brushes checked only by a qualified electrician.
Important! The carbon brushes should not be rep
laced by anyone but a qualified electrician.
8.4 Maintenance
There are no parts inside the equipment which
require additional maintenance.
