12.4 ECO Mode

The STIHL cordless lawn mower detects the cur‐ rent working conditions and adjusts the blade speed automatically.
This may extend the battery life.

12.5 Emptying the Grass Catcher Box

The functionality of the level indicator is restric‐ ted if the flow of air is impaired. External influen‐ ces such as wet, dense or high grass, low cutting levels, dirt or the like can impair the flow of air and the functionality of the level indicator. ► If the level indicator drops to its resting state:
empty the grass catcher box.
► Switch the lawn mower off.

slope. Be particularly careful when changing direc‐
f)
tion on a slope. Do not mow on excessively steep slopes.
g)
Be particularly careful when turning the lawn
h)
mower around or pulling it towards you. Stop the cutting blade(s) when the machine
i)
needs to be tilted for transportation over sur‐ faces other than grass and when moving the lawn mower from and to the area to be mown.
j)
safety devices or protective grilles or without attached safety devices, e.g. deflectors and/or grass-catching units.
Exercise care when starting or pressing the
k)
starting switch and observe the manufactur‐ er's instructions. Ensure that you keep your feet far enough away from the cutting blade(s).
The lawn mower must not be tilted when
l)
starting it, unless the lawn mower needs to be lifted during the process. In this case, only tilt it as far as is absolutely necessary and only raise the side facing away from the user.
