been switched off.
CAREFUL HANDLING AND USE OF CORD-
LESS EQUIPMENT
• Ensure that the equipment is switched off
before you insert the battery. Inserting a
battery into an electric tool that is switched on
can cause accidents.
• Only charge the batteries in chargers that
are recommended by the manufacturer. A
charger that is designed for a certain type of
batteries may pose a fire risk if it is used with
other types of batteries.
• Use only the correct batteries in the elec-
tric tools.The use of other batteries may
result in injuries and a fire risk.
• Keep unused batteries away from paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws and other
metallic objects that could cause a short
circuit between the contacts. A short cir-
cuit between the battery contacts may cause
burns or a fire.
• In case of incorrect use, fluid may escape
from the battery. Avoid contact with it. If
you touch it by mistake, rinse the affected
area with water. If you get the fluid in your
eyes, also seek medical advice. Leaking
battery fluid can cause skin irritation or burns.
Additional safety instructions
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of
every battery pack to ensure that we supply you
with batteries which feature maximum power den-
sity, durability and safety. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual

cell is initially formatted and its electrical charac-
teristic curves are recorded.These data are then
used exclusively to be able to assemble the best
possible battery packs. Despite all the safety
precautions, caution must always be exer-
cised when handling batteries. The following
points must be obeyed at all times to ensure
safe use.
Safe use can only be guaranteed if undama-
ged cells are used. Incorrect handling can
cause cell damage.
Important: Analyses confirm that incorrect use
and poor care are the main causes of the damage
caused by high performance batteries.
Information about the battery
1. The battery pack supplied with your cordless
tool is not charged.The battery pack has to
be charged before you use the tool for the first
time.
2. For optimum battery performance avoid low
discharge cycles. Charge the battery pack
frequently.
3. Store the battery pack in a cool place, ideally
at 15°C and charged to at least 40%.
4. Lithium-ion batteries are subject to a natural
ageing process.The battery pack must be
replaced at the latest when its capacity falls to
just 80% of its capacity when new. Weakened
cells in an aged battery pack are no longer
capable of meeting the high power require-
ments and therefore pose a safety risk.
5. Do not throw battery packs into an open fire.
There is a risk of explosion!
6. Do not ignite the battery pack or expose it to
fire.
7. Do not exhaustively discharge batteries.
Exhaustive discharge will damage the battery
cells.The most common cause of exhaustive
discharge is lengthy storage or non-use of
partly discharged batteries. Stop working as
soon as the performance of the battery falls
noticeably or the electronic protection system
triggers. Place the battery pack in storage
only after it has been fully charged.
8. Protect batteries and the tool from over-
loads. Overloads will quickly result in over-
heating and cell damage inside the battery
housing without this overheating actually
being apparent externally.
9. Avoid damage and shocks. Replace batte-
ries which have been dropped from a height
of more than one meter or which have been
exposed to violent shocks without delay, even
if the housing of the battery pack appears to
be undamaged.The battery cells inside the
battery may have suffered serious damage.
In this respect, please also read the waste
disposal information.
10. If the battery pack suffers overloading and
overheating, the integrated protective cut-off
will switch offthe equipment for safety rea-
sons. Important. Do not press the ON/OFF
switch any more if the protective cut-offhas
actuated.This may damage the battery pack.
11. Use only original battery packs.The use of
other batteries may result in injuries, explosi-
on and a fire risk.
Information on chargers and the charging
process
1. Please check the data marked on the rating
plate of the battery charger. Be sure to con-
nect the battery charger to a power supply
with the voltage marked on the rating plate.
Never connect it to a different mains voltage.
2. Protect the battery charger and its cable from
damage and sharp edges. Have damaged
cables repaired without delay by a qualified
electrician.
3. Keep the battery charger, batteries and the
cordless tool out of children’s reach.
4. Do not use damaged battery chargers.
5. Do not use the supplied battery charger to
charge other cordless tools.
6. In heavy use the battery pack will become
warm. Allow the battery pack to cool to room
temperature before commencing with the
charging.
7. Do not over-charge batteries. Do not ex-
ceed the maximum charging times.These
charging times only apply to discharged
batteries. Frequent insertion of a charged
or partly charged battery pack will result in
over-charging and cell damage. Do not leave
batteries in the charger for days on end.
8. Never use or charge batteries if you sus-
pect that the last time they were charged
was more than 12 months previously. The-
re is a high probability that the battery pack
has already suffered dangerous damage
(exhaustive discharge).
9. Charging batteries at a temperature below
10°C will cause chemical damage to the cell
and may cause a fire.
10. Do not use batteries which have heated du-
ring the charging process, as the battery cells
may have suffered dangerous damage.
11. Do not use batteries which have suffered

curvature or deformation during the charging
process or which show other non-typical sym-
ptoms (gassing, hissing, cracking,…)
12. Never fully discharge the battery pack (re-
commended depth of discharge max. 80%)
A complete discharge of the battery pack will
lead to premature ageing of the battery cells.
13. Never charge the batteries unsupervised.
Protection from environmental influences
1. Wear suitable work clothes.Wear safety gog-
gles.
2. Protect your cordless tool and the battery
charger from moisture and rain. Moisture
and rain can cause dangerous cell damage.
3. Do not use the cordless tool or the battery
charger near vapors and inflammable liquids.
4. Use the battery charger and cordless tools
only in dry conditions and an ambient tempe-
rature of 10-40°C.
5. Do not keep the battery charger in places
where the temperature is liable to reach over
40°C. In particular, do not leave the battery
charger in a car that is parked in the sunshine.
6. Protect batteries from overheating. Over-
loads, over-charging and exposure to direct
sunlight will result in overheating and cell
damage. Never charge or work with batteries
which have been overheated – replace them
immediately if possible.
7. Storage of batteries, battery chargers
and cordless tools. Store the charger and
your cordless tool only in dry places with an
ambient temperature of 10-40°C. Store your
lithium-ion battery pack in a cool, dry place at
a temperature of 10-20°C. Protect them from
humidity and direct sunlight. Only place fully
charged batteries in storage (charged at least
40%).
8. Prevent the lithium-ion battery pack from free-
zing. Battery packs which were stored below
0°C for more than 60 minutes must be dispo-
sed of.
9. When handling batteries beware of electro-
static charge: Electrostatic discharges cause
damage of the electronic protection system
and the battery cells. Avoid electrostatic char-
ging and never touch the battery poles.
Rechargeable batteries and cordless electric
machines and tools contain materials that are po-
tentially harmful to the environment. Never place
any cordless electric machines or tools in your
household refuse. When cordless electric machi-
nes or tools become defective or worn, remove
the rechargeable batteries and return them to
iSC GmbH (address: Eschenstrasse 6, D-94405,
Germany). If the rechargeable batteries cannot be
removed, return the complete cordless machine
or tool.
You can then be sure that the equipment will be
correctly disposed of by the manufacturer.

Filling level indicator of the grass collector
(fig. 16)
The grass collector is equipped with a filling level
indicator (Fig. 2/Item 15), which is lifted by the
airflow that the lawn mower generates during
operation. If this drops down onto the grass catch
basket during mowing, this means that the grass
collector is full and needs emptying.
Adjusting the cutting height
Caution!
Adjust the cutting height only when the machine
has been switched off, the safety plug (12) has
been pulled out and the batteries (16) removed.
Before you begin to mow, check to ensure that the

are damaged.To prevent any imbalance, replace
blunt and/or damaged blades.To carry out this
check, first switch offthe motor and pull out the
safety plug.
Warning!
Adjust the cutting height only when the machine
has been switched off, the safety plug (12) has
been pulled out and the batteries (16) removed.
The cutting height is adjusted as follows
(see Fig. 11):
1. Push the lever (6) outwards.
2. Set the lever (6) to the desired cutting height.
3. Release the lever (6) and check that it is se-
curely seated in the lock.
Using the mulching adapter (Fig. 8a)
In mulching mode the cuttings are shredded in
the enclosed mower housing and then spread
back onto the lawn. It is not necessary to gather
and dispose of the grass.
Important! Mulching is only possible if the
lawn is relatively short.
Warning!
Insert the mulching blade only when the machine
has been switched off, the safety plug (12) has
been pulled out and the batteries (16) removed.
To use the mulching function, disconnect the
catch bag, slide the mulching adaptor (Fig. 5d/
Item 18) through the ejector opening and close
the ejector flap again.
Side ejector (Fig. 8b)
You must fit the mulching adapter (18) in order to
use the side ejector. Hook in the side ejector ad-
apter (19) as shown in Fig. 8b.
Charging the battery (Fig. 14)
1. Take the battery pack out of the equipment.
Do this by pressing the pushlock button.
2. Check that your mains voltage is the same as
that marked on the rating plate of the battery
charger. Insert the power plug of the charger
(17) into the socket outlet.The green LED will
then begin to flash.
3. Insert the battery pack (16) into the battery
charger (17).
4. In the section entitled „Charger indicator“ you
will find a table with an explanation of the LED
indicator on the charger.
The battery pack can become a little warm during
the charging.This is normal.
If the battery pack fails to charge, check:
• whether there is voltage at the socket outlet
• whether there is good contact at the charging
contacts.
If the battery pack still fails to charge, send
• the charging unit
• and the battery pack
to our customer service center.
To ensure that the battery pack provides long ser-
vice, you should take care to recharge it promptly.
You must recharge the battery pack when you
notice that the performance of the device drops.
Never allow the battery pack to become fully di-
scharged.This will cause it to develop a defect!
Installing the battery (Fig. 15)
Open the battery cover (Item 4).Then insert the
batteries in the mounts as shown in Fig. 15.
For optimum mowing results and battery power
performance it is always best to use batteries
with the same capacity of 3.0 Ah or higher.There
is also the option of using batteries with different
capacities in the two battery mounts A and B (Fig.
2) which are opposite each other.
Always make sure, however, that you only use
batteries of the same capacity in each separate
battery bank.

For example, you could use 2 x 4.0Ah batteries in
one battery bank while using 2 x 3.0Ah batteries
in the opposite battery bank.
Important!
Use only batteries which are charged to the same
level. Never combine full and half-full batteries. Al-
ways charge the two/all batteries simultaneously.
The equipment‘s operating time depends on the
battery with the lower charge level.The two/all
batteries must always be fully charged before use.
Close the battery cover by swinging it down, and
make sure that it latches in place correctly.
Battery capacity indicator (Fig. 13)
Press the switch for the battery capacity indicator
(Fig. 13/Item A).The battery capacity indicator
(Fig. 13/Item B) shows the charge status of the
battery using 3 LEDs.
All 3 LEDs are lit:
The battery is fully charged.
2 or 1 LED(s) are lit:
The battery has an adequate remaining charge.
1 LED blinks:
The battery is empty, recharge the battery.
All LEDs flash:
The battery pack has undergone exhaustive di-
scharge and is defective. Do not use or charge a
defective battery pack!
Caution!
Do not park the lawn mower in the sun. Batteries
which have been inserted could heat up to inad-
missible levels.
6. Operation
Caution!
The lawn mower is equipped with a safety switch
to prevent unauthorized use. Directly before star-
ting up the lawn mover insert the safety plug (Fig.
10) and remove the safety plug again when inter-
rupting or terminating your work.
Important!
For safety reasons, it is not possible to start the
cordless lawn mower if the pitch angle is over
~60°.
Caution!
To prevent the equipment switching on acciden-
tally, the lawn mower is equipped with a safety
switch (Fig. 10/Item 8) which must be pressed
before the switching bar (Fig. 9/Item 1) can be
activated.The lawn mower switches itself offwhen
the switching bar is released.The start time can
amount to several seconds (To make it easier to
start, tilt the lawn mower slightly at the back (Fig.
18)).The speed will drop after a few seconds
when in idle mode and will rise again after a few
second when in working mode. Repeat this pro-
cess several times so that you are sure that the
machine functions properly. Before you perform
any repair or maintenance work on the equipment,
ensure that the blade is not rotating, that the safe-
ty plug (12) is disconnected and that the batteries
(16) have been removed.
Warning! Never open the chute flap when the
grass bag has been detached (to be emptied) and
the engine is still running. A rotating blade can
cause serious injuries!
Always carefully fasten the chute flap and grass
basket. Before you remove them, switch offthe
motor and pull out the safety plug (12) first.
Always ensure that a safe distance (provided
by the length of the long handles) is maintained
between the user and the mower housing. Be
especially careful when mowing and changing
direction on slopes and inclines. Maintain a solid
footing and wear sturdy, non-slip footwear and
long trousers.
Always mow along the incline (not up and down).
For safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be
used to mow inclines whose gradient exceeds 15
degrees.
Use special caution when backing up and pulling
the lawn mower. Tripping hazard!
Tips for proper mowing
It is recommended that you overlap the mo-
wing swaths.
Only use a sharp blade that is in good condition.
This will prevent the grass blades from fraying and
the lawn from turning yellow.
Try to mow in straight lines for a nice, clean look.
The swaths should overlap each other by a few
centimeters in order to avoid stripes.
How frequently you should mow your lawn is
determined primarily by the speed at which the
grass grows. In the main growing season (May

- June) you will probably need to mow the lawn
twice a week, otherwise just once a week.The
cutting height should be between 4 - 6 cm and the
amount of growth before mowing again should
be 4 - 5 cm. Normal grass which has grown to a
height of up to 8cm can be mown to the desired
height in one go without any problems. If the
grass is allowed to grow somewhat longer for
whatever reason, do not make the mistake of
cutting it back to the normal height in one go. This
will harm the lawn. For grass which has grown to
over 10 cm in height we therefore recommend
that you mow it with the highest cutting height
setting first.
Important!
The cutting height setting has an influence on the
maximum area that can be mown.
Keep the underside of the mower housing clean
and remove grass build-up. Deposits not only
make it more difficult to start the mower; they
decrease the quality of the cut and make it harder
for the equipment to bag the grass.
Always mow along inclines (not up and down).
You can prevent the lawn mower from slipping
down by holding a position at an angle upwards.
Select the cutting height according to the length
of the grass. Make several passes so that no
more than 4cm of grass are cut at one time.
Switch offthe motor, pull the safety plug (12)
and remove the batteries (16) before doing any
checks on the blade. Keep in mind that the bla-
de continues to rotate for a few seconds after
the motor has been switched off. Never attempt
to manually stop the blade. Regularly check to
see if the blade is securely attached, is in good
condition and is sharp. If the contrary is the case,
sharpen the blade or replace it. In the event that
the blade strikes an object, immediately switch
offthe lawn mower and wait for the blade to come
to a complete stop. Then inspect the condition of
the blade and the blade mount. Replace any parts
that are damaged.
As soon as grass clippings start to trail the lawn
mower, it is time to empty the grass basket. Cau-
tion! Before taking offthe grass basket, switch off
the motor and wait until the blade has come to a
stop. Pull out the safety plug (12).
To take offthe grass basket, use one hand to lift
up the chute flap and the other to grab onto the
basket handle. Remove the basket. For safety
reasons, the chute flap automatically falls down
after removing the grass basket and closes offthe
rear chute opening. If any grass remains in the
opening, it will be easier to restart the engine if
you pull the mower back approximately 1m.
Do not use your hands or feet to remove clippings
in or on the mower housing, but instead use suita-
ble tools such as a brush or a hand broom.
In order to ensure that the majority of grass clip-
pings are picked up, the inside of the grass bas-
ket must be cleaned after each use.
Reattach the catch bag only when the motor is
switched off, the safety plug has been pulled out
and the blade has stopped.
Lift up the chute flap with one hand and, holding
the grass basket by its handle with the other
hand, hang in the basket from the top.
Caution!
The lawn mover is equipped with a safety circuit
to prevent unauthorized use. Directly before star-
ting up the lawn mover insert the safety plug (Fig.
12d) and remove the safety plug again whenever
you interrupt or terminate your work.
Caution!
To prevent the equipment switching on acciden-
tally, the lawn mower is equipped with a safety
switch (Fig. 14/Item 8) which must be pressed
before the switching bar (Fig. 14/Item 1) can be

7. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Hazard!
Pull out the safety plug and remove all the battery
packs (16) before starting any cleaning work (Fig.
10/Item 8, Fig. 20).
7.1 Cleaning
• To make it easy to clean, fold down the push
bar and move the equipment into the cleaning
position. (Fig. 17)
• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible.Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it down with compressed air at
low pressure.
• Do not clean the lawn mower with running
water, particularly with high-pressure water.
• We recommend cleaning the equipment im-
mediately each time after use.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a damp
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these may be ag-
gressive to the plastic parts in the equipment.
Ensure that no water can get into the interior
of the equipment.
• For best results, clean the lawn mower with
the provided spatula and with a brush or rag.
7.2 Maintenance
• Worn out or damaged blades, blade mounts,
and bolts should be replaced as a set by an
authorized professional in order to keep the
equipment in balance.
• Ensure that all mounting components (i.e.
screws, bolts, nuts etc.) are always tightened
so that the equipment can be safely operated
at all times.
• Check the grass catch assembly frequently
for signs of wear.
• Replace excessively worn or damaged parts
immediately.
• In order to ensure that you enjoy the equip-
ment for many years to come, all screwed
parts, as well as the wheels and axles, should
be cleaned and lubricated.
• Keeping your lawn mower in good condition
not only ensures a long lifespan and high per-
formance, but also enables the equipment to
thoroughly cut your grass with minimal effort.
• The blade is subjected to more wear and
tear than any other component.Therefore,
routinely check the condition of the blade
and make sure that it is tightly fastened. If the
blade is completely worn out, it must be im-
mediately replaced or ground sharp again. An
excessively vibrating mower means that the
blade is not properly balanced or has become
deformed from striking an object. In this case,
the blade must be repaired or replaced.
• There are no other parts inside the equipment
which require maintenance.
7.3 Replacing the blade
For safety reasons, we recommend having the
blade replaced by an authorized professional.
Caution! Pull out the safety plug and remove the
battery packs (16)! Wear work gloves! Only repla-
ce the blade with a genuine Einhell replacement
blade, as this will ensure top performance and
safety under all conditions.
Carry out the following steps to change the
blade:
1. Undo the fastening screw (see Fig. 12).
2. Remove the blade and replace with a new
one.
3. When fitting the blade, make sure it is ins-
talled in the right direction.The blade‘s air
vanes must project into the motor compart-
ment (see Fig. 12).The dome mounts must
be aligned with the punch holes in the blade.
(see Fig. 12).
4. Then retighten the fastening screw.The tigh-
tening torque should be approx. 25 Nm.
At the end of the season, perform a general
inspection of the lawn mower and remove any
grass and dirt which may have accumulated.
At the start of each season, ensure that you
check the condition of the blade. If repairs are
necessary, please contact our customer ser-
vice center. Use only genuine spare parts.
