INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing a

Hayter

mower. The following pages are designed to help you

gain safe and efficient service from your machine.

IMPORTANT:

This ‘Owners Handbook’ should be regarded as part of the machine as it

gives essential information regarding machine safety, operation, maintenance and
specifications. Read and understand this handbook prior to operating your machine for the
first time. Make sure you are familiar with all the controls and points of regular maintenance.
If you have any doubts, consult your

Hayter

you assistance.

The mower is designed solely for use in a domestic grass cutting environment. Use in any
other way is considered as contrary to the intended use. Compliance with and strict adherence
to the conditions of operation, service and repair as specified in this handbook also constitute
essential elements of the intended use.

This mower should be operated, serviced and repaired only by persons who are familiar with
its particular characteristics and who are acquainted with the relevant safety procedures. The
safety precautions listed herein and all other generally recognised regulations on safety must
be observed at all times.

All

Hayter

mowers are robustly constructed and designed for efficient economical

performance under normal mowing conditions. Correct operation and maintenance will
ensure a long and satisfactory service life. Prior to despatch from our factory every effort is
made to ensure your machine arrives in perfect condition. Your dealer will carry out a
pre-delivery inspection to ensure that there has been no transit damage prior to installation.

Please allow your dealer to familiarise you with the controls and safety features of the
machine during installation.

Throughout this handbook all references to left hand and right hand are as viewed from
behind the handlebar, facing in the direction of forward travel.
