No person, especial children, or animals should be allowed to stand close to the
mower while it is in use.
Risk of injury due to ejected stones or other objects.
Tripping Hazard
Operate the lawn mower at walking speed only.
1) Be particularly careful when mowing in reverse and pulling the machine
towards you.
2) When mowing on steep slopes, there is a risk of the mower tipping over and
you could be injured as a result. Mow crossways to the slope, never upwards
and downwards. Do not mow on inclines greater than 20%.
3) Be particularly careful when changing the mowing direction and always
maintain a stable position.
4) Mowing along perimeters of cliffs or steep inclines involves a risk of injury.
Keep a safe distance from perimeters of dangerous terrain when mowing.
5) If the ground is wet the mower could slip due to reduced traction and
overturn. Mow only when the grass is dry.
6) Work only by daylight or in good artificial lighting.

Switch OFF the motor.
Wait until all moving parts have come to a complete standstill.
