Page: 20 / 200

3. Proper operation
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.

using a screw (Fig. 3b/Item 16) and a star screw
