1. Where to Use Your GARDENA Cylinder Lawnmower

The GARDENA Cylinder Lawnmower has been designed
for cutting lawn and grass areas of private houses.

Compliance with these instructions provided by GARDENA
is a prerequisite for using the cylinder lawnmower correctly.

The cylinder lawnmower may not be used for cutting
climbing plants or grass on roofs, due to the danger
of bodily harm.

Contents

9

GB

Do not use the lawnmower while people,
especially children or animals, are directly
nearby. The operator is liable for damages.

The safety distance between the blade
cylinder and the operator that is created
by the guiding spar is to be always
maintained.

When mowing embankments and slopes,
special care is to be taken:

v make sure you always have a safety

distance and wear shoes with a non­slip sole.

Always cut diagonally to the slope.
Take special care when moving backwards

and when pulling the lawn mower. Danger
of stumbling!

If the cutting tools or the lawnmower should
run into an obstruction and / or solid objects,
the lawn mower should be properly and thor­oughly inspected.

v Only work when visibility is good.
Never leave the lawnmower unattended.

If your work is interrupted, store the mower
in a safe place.

4. Operation

To produce a well-maintained lawn we recommend cutting the
lawn regularly one a week if possible. The lawn becomes thicker
if cut frequently.

Relatively long cut grass (> 1 cm) must be removed so that the
lawn does not become yellow and matted.

After relatively long intervals between mowing (holiday lawn),
first of all cut in one direction with the cutting height as high as
possible (42 mm), then cut in the crosswise direction at the cutting
height required. The blades of grass may not be more than 12 cm
long if they are to be cut with a cylinder mower.

If possible, only cut the grass when it is dry, if the grass is damp,
the cutting pattern will be uneven.

3. Tighten the two locking screws

on both sides to the same

height.

The locking screws

must always be set to the same height on

both sides.

The mower may only be adjusted to a depth in which the lower
blade does not touch the ground when it is uneven.

5. Putting into Storage

v Clean cylinder mower before storage (see 5. Maintenance) and

store in a dry place.

The cylinder mower can be collapsed to save space by relea­sing the wing nuts on the upright.

6. Maintenance

DANGER! Cutting mechanism can cause injuries !
V Wear suitable work gloves when undertaking

maintenance.

Always keep the cylinder mower clean and remove grass deposits.
Deposits affect the cutting result as well as discharge of grass
clippings. Residual dirt and grass is easily removed immediately
after mowing.

1. Remove grass deposits with a brush and a cloth.

2. Oil the red cutting mechanism lightly with thin oil (e.g.
sprayed oil).
