Due to the high turning force (T orque) which this motor develops a light squeak may be heard when the machine is started, this is quite normal and will not effect the performance of the product 1.

To secure, position loop over the hook and pull the cable back through the slot as illustrated in picture (F). To prevent a ring being cut in your lawn and to clear any residual grass in the collection chute, tilt your lawnmower slightly (G). The switchbox is provided with a lock-off button (H1) to prevent accidental starting. Press and hold the lock-off button (H) on the switchbox, then squeeze one of the Start/Stop levers towards the upper handle (J). Continue to squeeze the start/stop lever towards the upper handle and release the lock-off button. When the lawnmower has reached full speed gently lower it onto the lawn. IMPORTANT: Do not use the start/stop levers intermittently To Stop your Lawnmower 1. To prevent a ring being cut in your lawn and to clear any residual grass in the collection chute, tilt your lawnmower slightly (G). Start mowing the edge of the lawn nearest to the power point so the cable is laid out on the lawn you have already cut. Mow twice a week during the growing season, your lawn will suffer if more than a third of its length is cut at one time and this may also result in poor collection. Do Not Overload Your Mower Mowing long thick grass may cause the motor speed to drop, you will hear a change in the motor sound. If the motor speed drops you may overload your lawnmower which may cause damage. When mowing in long thick grass a first cut with the cutting height set higher will help reduce the load.
