INTENDED USE
THE LAWN MOWER IS DESIGNED FOR DOMESTIC USE ONLY.
Lawn mowers for domestic use are mowers whose annual use does not generally exceed 50 hours
and that are primarily used for tending GRASS OR LAWN AREAS, but not in public facilities, parks or
sports grounds and not for agricultural or forestry use.
Compliance with the operating manual supplied by the manufacturer is a prerequisite for the proper
usage of the lawn mower. The operating manual contains servicing and maintenance instructions as
well as directions for use.
IMPORTANT
The lawn mower must not be used to trim bushes, hedges and shrubs, to cut or shred climbing plants
or lawns on roof gardens or in balcony boxes or to clean footpaths, nor must it be used as a chopper
for shredding tree or hedge cuttings.
Furthermore, the lawn mower must not be used as a cultivator or to level off uneven areas of ground,
e.g. molehills.
TRAINING
Read the instructions carefully: Be familiar with the controls and the proper use of the equipment.
Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these instructions to use the lawnmower. Local
regulations can restrict the age of the operator.
Never operate the mower while people, especially children, or pets are nearby.
Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards involving the
lawnmower that occur to other people or their property.
