Mowing without grass collection
basket (8) (Fig.13, 14)
ATTENTION
Only remove or attach the grass collection basket when
the engine is switched off and the blade is stationary.
You can also use the product without the grass collection
basket (8).
1. Remove the grass collection basket (8) as described
under 10.1.3
2. Lift the discharge flap (7).
3. Fold out the spacer (7a).
4. Close the discharge flap (7) slowly.
The grass can be ejected through the distance created by
the spacer (7a).
10.3
Mowing with the mulching insert
When mulching, the cuttings are shredded in the closed
lawnmower housing and then dispersed on the lawn.
Grass collection and disposal are not required. The fine
green waste falls back into the grass root as a natural fer-
tiliser, adds moisture to the lawn and supplies it with im-
portant nutrients.
NOTE
Mulching is only possible on relatively short lawns.
10.3.1
Inserting the mulching insert (17)
(Figs. 15, 16)
1. Lift the discharge flap (7).
2. Remove the grass collection basket (8) (if used) by
the carrying handle.
3. Lift the discharge flap (7) and insert the mulching in-
sert (17).
4. Adjust the cutting height (see ).
Note:
Cut the grass back by 2 cm if the grass is 4-6 cm high.
10.3.2
Difference between lawn mowing and
lawn mulching (Fig. 13, 16)
When using the mulching insert (17), the grass clippings
are not collected in a grass collection bag, but shredded
and distributed over the lawn. The nutrients contained in
the grass clippings are thus broken down by soil organ-
isms forming a nutrient cycle. Mulched lawns therefore
need to be fertilised much less frequently.
As a general rule, the lawn must be mowed relatively of-
ten so that only small amounts of mulch remain on the
lawn. It is therefore best to mulch the lawn at least once a
week and set the mower so that only approx. 40% of the
total height of the lawn is mulched. If the mulch remains
visible on the lawn (e.g. during the first cut of the year or
during heavy growth), the grass bag (8) should be used.

You can adjust the speed in six stages using the +/- but-
tons for the speed setting (travel drive) (2c).
• Increase: Press the + button to increase the speed.
One more indicator LED (travel speed) (2e) illumi-
nates for each level until all six are lit.
• Decrease: Press the - button to reduce the speed.
One control LED (travel speed) (2e) extinguishes for
each stage until only one is lit.
10.5.4
You can switch between Auto and Eco mode by pressing
the Auto/Eco switch (2d). The indicator LED (Auto/Eco
mode) (2j) indicates the active mode. The last mode used
is used again at startup.
• Auto mode: Utilisation of the full motor power.
• Eco mode: The speed is adapted to the conditions in
order to achieve maximum running time.

LEDs for displaying the battery row
The product uses two battery rows (19+19a), each with
two batteries (18). At least one row must be used. If both
battery rows (19+19a) are occupied, the product automat-
ically switches to the other when one is empty.
Slot 1:
• Indicator LED (slot 1) (2g) illuminates:
– Battery row (rear) (19) is occupied but not active.
• Indicator LED (slot 1) (2g) flashes
– Battery row (rear) (19) is active.
