  WARNING

 

For your own safety please read this manual before attempting to operate your new unit. Failure to follow 
instructions can result in serious personal injury. Spend a few moments to familiarise yourself with your 
mower before each use. Keep this manual in a safe place, so that the information is available at all times. If 
you give the equipment to any other person, hand over these operating instructions and safety regulations 
as well. 

 

Intended use: 

 

The equipment may only be used for the tasks it is designed to handle. Any other use is deemed to be a case 
of misuse. The user/operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind 
caused as a result of this. 

 

The petrol lawn mower is intended for private use i.e. for use in home and gardening environments. Private use 
of the lawn mower refers an annual operating time generally not exceeding that of 50 hours, during which time 
the machine is primarily used to maintain small-scale, residential lawns and home/hobby gardens. Public 
facilities, sporting halls, and agricultural/forestry applications are excluded. 

 

Please note that our equipment has not been designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. 
Our warranty will be voided if the machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent 
purposes. 

 

The operating instructions as supplied by the manufacturer must be kept and referred to in order to ensure that 
the lawn mower is properly used and maintained. The instructions contain valuable information on operating, 
maintenance and servicing conditions. 

 

Important! Due to the high risk of bodily injury to the user, the lawn mower may not be used to trim bushes, 
hedges or shrubs, to cut scaling vegetation, planted roofs, or balcony-grown grass, to clean (suck up) dirt and 
debris off walkways, or to chop up tree or hedge clippings. Moreover, the lawn mower may not be used as a 
power cultivator to level out high areas such as molehills. 

 

For safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be used as a drive unit for other work tools or toolkits of any kind.
