Proper care for your lawn.
With GARDENA, your lawn care will be almost effortless. The b asic principles: a healthy lawn needs sufficient air, water, n utrients and light. Thats why, during aeration, specially ground blades cut a few millimetres into the turf. At the same time, the lawn is freed from matted grass, moss and weeds. You should aerate lane by lane with strongly matted lawns, also horizontally to the lanes. Its also a good idea to top dress your lawn with sand so that your lawn will be able to better absorb water, air and nutrients. Depending on the condition, you should aerate your lawn once or twice per season. That will keep your lawn in shape and beautiful. The best times of year for aeration are spring and autumn. Unlike as with the Lawn Aerator, you can use the GARDENA Lawn Rake all the time. This helps to successfully prevent m atted grass and moss. Stainless-steel springs work thick mats and newly forming moss out of your lawn. By the way: with e very mowing, a lawn loses nutrients. To prevent this, your lawn should be regularly fertilised. With the GARDENA Spreader, you can fertiliser with ease and precision. Your lawn will stay thick, vividly green and weed-free. And best of all: You can use the G ARDENA Spreader in winter for salt or grit.

4. Operation

Mowing correctly :
To produce a well-maintained lawn we recommend cutting the lawn regularly once 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 (e.g. holiday), first of all cut in one direction with the cutting height as high as possible 9
(42 mm), then cut in the crosswise direction at the cutting height required. The blades of grass should 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.
Adjusting the cutting height :
The cutting height can be set to any position between 12 mm and 42 mm. 1. Stand behind the cylinder mower with one foot on the roller 8. 2. Slacken the two locking screws 9 and set to the height required on the scale 0. 3. Tighten the two locking screws 9 on both sides to the same height. The locking screws both sides.
9 must always be set to the same height on
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

Storage :
v Clean cylinder mower before storage (see 6. Maintenance) and store in a dry place. To save space the cylinder mower can be collapsed by opening up the clamping nuts.

6. Maintenance

Cleaning the mower :
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).

7. Troubleshooting

DANGER ! Cutting tool can cause injuries ! V Wear suitable work gloves when rectifying faults.

Fault Abnormal Noises

Possible Cause Screws / components loose. Foreign bodies on the blade. Notch in the blade. Blades are striking each other too hard.
Rectification v Tighten screws. v Remove foreign bodies. v Remove notches with grindstone.

Lawn is not cleanly cut

Blade adjustment incorrect. Blade blunt. Grass too long (e.g. after a relatively long absence).
v Adjust cutting mechanism. v Regrind or replace blade. v Cut lawn shorter with a sickle.

Adjusting the cutting mechanism :
The cutting gear of your lawn mower was optimally adjusted before leaving our company. If, after longer use, a clean cut of the grass is no longer possible or the blade roller contacts the lower blade, then the lower blade should be adjusted as follows: 1. Unhook upright and clean cylinder mower. 2. Check cylinder B and lower blade C for notches and remove these with a grindstone if necessary. 3. Unscrew internal hexagon screws D with an internal hexagon wrench (5 mm) anticlockwise until the cylinder B turns freely. 4. Push the feeler gauge supplied (thin strip of metal) A between one blade B on the cylinder and the lower blade 5. Tighten left internal hexagon screw D with an internal hexagon wrench (5 mm) until the feeler gauge A is held gently. 6. Continue turning the cylinder until the blade B, already adjusted on the left side, is exactly above the lower blade on the right side.

B A D C

7. Tighten the right internal hexagon screw D with an internal hexagon wrench (5 mm) until the feeler gauge A is held gently. 8. Rotate cylinder B. If a banging noise is produced during this, open up the internal hexagon screw D slightly on the side affected. When the cylinder and the lower blade can hardly be heard touching each other, the cutting mechanism has been adjusted correctly. 9. Cutting test: Place a strip of paper E in such a way on the lower blade that it points towards the spindle of the cylinder B. 10. Turn cylinder B carefully. If the lower blade is set correctly as if with scissors.
C the paper will be cut off B.
11. Repeat the cutting test on the other blades
v Adjust cutting mechanism.

Regrinding / repairs :

On safety grounds, only original GARDENA spares may be used.
Please contact GARDENA Service if it is necessary to replace the cutting tool, which will only become blunt after several years use if well-maintained. Repairs to the cylinder mower and the installation of the blades can be undertaken by suitable specialist workshops. Have the cylinder mower checked over in the autumn if possible so that it is ready for use immediately when the next lawn-mowing season starts. If you have any problem with your cylinder mower, please contact our Customer Service.
