Safety Precautions

4.

Mowing on banks and slopes can be
dangerous.  Do not mow on 

banks

or 

steep

slopes. 

5.

On slopes, be extra careful of your footing and
wear non-slip footwear.

6.

Mow across the face of slopes, never up and
down.

7.

Exercise extreme caution when changing
direction on slopes.

8.

Do not walk backwards when mowing, you
could trip.  Walk never run.

9.

Never cut grass by pulling the mower towards
you.

10. Stop the lawnmower and remove the safety key

before moving the lawnmower  across surfaces
other than grass and when transporting the
lawnmower to and from the area to be mowed.

11. Never operate the lawnmower with damaged

guards or without guards in place.

12. Always start the lawnmower carefully with feet

well away from the blades.

13. Do not tilt the lawnmower when the motor is

running, except when starting and stopping.  In
this case, do not tilt more than absolutely
necessary and lift only the part which is away
from the operator.  Always ensure that both
hands are in the operating position before
returning the appliance to the ground.

14. Do not stand in front of the grass discharge

chute when you start the motor.

15. Do not put hands near the grass discharge

chute whilst the motor is running.

16. Never pick up or carry a lawnmower while the

motor is running.

17. Stop the lawnmower and remove the safety

key:

-

before leaving the mower unattended for any
period;

-

before clearing a blockage;

-

before checking, cleaning or working on the
appliance;

-

if you hit an object.  Do not use your
lawnmower until you are sure that the entire
lawnmower is in a safe operating condition;

-

if the lawnmower starts to vibrate abnormally.
Check immediately.  Excessive vibration can
cause injury.

Maintenance and storage

1.

Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure
the lawnmower is in safe working condition.

2.

Check the grassbox/grassbag frequently for
wear or deterioration. 

3

Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.

4.

Only use  the replacement blade, blade bolt and
blade adaptor specified for this product.

5.

Allow the motor to cool before storing in any
enclosure.

6.

To reduce fire hazard, keep the motor, battery
compartment and storage area free of grass,
leaves or excessive grease.

7.

Be careful during adjustment of the machine to
prevent entrapment of the fingers between
moving blades and fixed parts of the machine.

8.

Store in a cool, dry place where your
lawnmower is protected from damage.

Transport Safety

Remove the safety key to prevent accidental
starting.  

2.

Carefully fold the handle onto the machine.
