There is a
risk of accidents.
• Do not operate the implement
if you are tired or are lacking in
concentration and after having
drunk alcohol or taken medi-
cine. Always take a work break
in due time. Approach the work
with common sense. A moment
of carelessness when using
the equipment can result in se-
rious injury.
• Familiarize yourself with the
terrain and remain focused on
the potential hazards that you
could miss on account of the
motor noise.
• Always maintain a secure foot-
ing while working, especially on
a sloping terrain. Always work
across slopes - never up and
down! Be particularly careful
when changing the travelling
direction. Do not work on very
steep slopes.
This enables you
to control the equipment better
in unexpected situations.
• Always guide the implement at
a walking pace with both hands
on the handle. Be especially
careful when you turn the imple-
ment around or draw it towards
you. Danger of stumbling!
• Start or actuate the starting
lever with care and in conform-
ity with the directions in these
Instructions.
• Do not tilt the implement when
starting, other than it has to be
lifted. In this case tilt the imple-
ment only to the extent that
is absolutely necessary and
always lift the implement on
the side that is opposite to the
operator.
• Never operate the implement
without the attached collection
bag or impact protector. Dan

ger of injury! Always keep well
away from the ejector opening.
• Do not operate the implement
in the vicinity of inflammable
liquids or gases as this could
give rise to the danger of a fire
or explosion.
• Always disconnect the plug
from the mains socket before
working.
Work intervals:
• After the implement has been
turned off, the cutting cylinder
will continue to rotate for a few
seconds. Keep hands and feet
well away.
• Do not touch the spring tines
before the implement has been
disconnected from the mains and
the spring tines have come to a
complete standstill. Risk of injury
owing to a sharp implement!
• Only remove plant parts when
the implement is standing com-
pletely still. Ensure that the
grass ejector opening is clean
and free.
• Switch off the power when the
implement is to be transported,
lifted or tilted and when travers-
ing other surfaces than grass.
• Never leave the implement un-
attended at the place of work.
Children should be supervised
to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
