Key specifications

• Weight: 8.9 kg

How to use

Position the mower on level ground and set the desired cutting height using the height adjustment mechanism. Push the mower forward at a steady pace so the reel blades rotate and shear the grass against the fixed bed knife. For best results, mow regularly and avoid cutting more than one third of the grass blade height at a time. After use, clean grass clippings from the reel and underside to maintain cutting performance and prevent corrosion.

Recommendations

Use the manual reel mower on well-maintained turf surfaces; avoid very long, wet, or uneven grass to reduce strain and ensure a clean cut. Keep blades sharp and check fastenings periodically. Store the mower in a dry place to preserve mechanical parts and prolong service life.
