PERSONAL SAFETY
Tragic accidents can occur if operator is not alert to the
presence of children. Children are often attracted to the
mower and mowing activity. They do not understand the
dangers. Never assume that children will remain where you
last saw them.
◾
Keep children out of the mowing area and under the
watchful care of a responsible adult other than the operator.
◾
Be alert and turn the mower off if a child enters the area.
◾
Use extreme care when approaching blind corners,
doorways, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure
your vision of a child who may run into the mower.
◾
Children should be supervised to ensure that they are not
playing with the mower.
◾
Always turn the mower off when removing the battery pack
from the tool. Stop the blade(s) if the appliance has to be
tilted for transportation when crossing surfaces other than
grass, and when transporting the appliance to and from the
area to be mowed.
OPERATION
GENERAL OPERATION:
◾
Read this operator’s manual carefully in its entirety before
attempting to assemble this machine. Read, understand,
and follow all instructions on the machine and in the
manuals before operation. Be completely familiar with the
controls and proper use of this machine before operating
it. Keep this manual in a safe place for future and regular
reference and for ordering replacement parts.
◾
Use the right appliance – Do not use the lawn mower for
any job except that for which it is intended.
◾
Don’t overreach – Keep proper footing and balance at all
times.
◾
Objects struck by the lawn mower blade can cause severe
injuries to persons. The lawn should always be carefully
examined and cleared of all objects prior to each mowing.
◾
Before and while moving backwards, look behind and down
for small children and other people.
◾
This machine is not a plaything. Therefore, exercise extreme
caution at all times. Your unit has been designed to perform
one job: to mow grass. Do not use it for any other purpose.
◾
Don’t force the lawn mower – it will do the job better and
more safely at the rate for which it was designed.
◾
Before using, always visually inspect to see that the blades,
blade bolts and cutter assembly are not worn or damaged.
Replace worn or damaged blades and bolts and any other
components at the same time to preserve balance. Replace
damaged or unreadable labels.
◾
Use extreme caution when reversing or pulling the
appliance towards you.
◾
Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to
be used. Remove all stones, sticks, wire, toys and other
foreign objects that could be tripped over or picked up
and thrown by the blade. Thrown objects can cause
serious personal injury. Plan your mowing pattern to avoid
discharge of material toward roads, sidewalks, bystanders
and the like. Also, avoid discharging material against walls
or obstructions, which may cause discharged material to
ricochet back toward the operator.
◾
To help avoid blade contact or an injury from thrown
objects, stay in the operator zone behind the handles and
keep children, bystanders, helpers and pets at least 30m
from the mower while it is in operation. Stop the machine if
anyone enters the area.
◾
Always wear safety glasses or safety goggles during
operation and while performing an adjustment or repair to
protect your eyes. Thrown objects that ricochet can cause
serious injury to the eyes. Always use a face or dust mask if
the operation is dusty.
