WARNING!
If not used properly this lawn mower can be dangerous!
This lawn mower can cause serious injury to the operator and others, the warnings and
safety instructions must be followed to ensure reasonable safety and efficiency in using this
lawn mower. The operator is responsible for following the warning and safety and instructions in
this manual and on the lawn mower. Never use the mower unless the catcher or guards provided
by the manufacturer are in the correct position.
1) Training
• Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with the controls and the proper use of the appliance.
• Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these instructions to use the appliance. Local
regulations may restrict the age of the operator.
• Never mow while people, especially children, or pets are nearby.
• The operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to other people or their
property.
2) Preparation
• While mowing, always wear substantial footwear and long trousers.
• Do not operate the appliance when barefoot or wearing open sandals.
• Thoroughly inspect the area where the appliance is to be used and remove all stones, sticks,
wires, bones, and other foreign objects.
• Before using, always visually inspect to see that the blades, blade bolts and cutter assembly are
not worn or damaged. Replace worn or damaged blades and bolts in sets to preserve balance.
• On multi-bladed appliances, take care as rotating one blade can cause other blades to rotate.
3) Operation
• Mow only in daylight or in good artificial light.
• Avoid operating the appliance in wet grass, where feasible.
• Always be sure of your footing on slopes.
• Walk, never run.
• For wheeled rotary mowers, mow across the face of slopes, never up and down.
• Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on slopes.
• Do not mow excessively steep slopes.
• Use extreme caution when reversing or pulling the appliance towards you.
• Stop the blade(s) if the appliance has to be tilted for transportation when crossing surfaces other
than grass, and when transporting the appliance to and from the area to be mowed.
• Never operate the appliance with defective guards or shields, or without safety devices, for
example deflectors and/or grass catchers, in place.
• Switch on the motor according to instructions and with feet well away from the blade(s).
• Do not tilt the appliance when switching on the motor, except if the appliance has to be tilted for
starting. In this case, do not tilt it 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.
• Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts. For rotary mowers, keep clear of the
discharge opening at all times.
• Never pick up or carry an appliance while the motor is running.
• Pull the plug from the socket:
- whenever you leave the machine;
- before clearing a blockage;
- before checking, cleaning or working on the appliance;
- after striking a foreign object. Inspect the appliance for damage and make repairs as necessary;
- if the appliance starts to vibrate abnormally (check immediately).
4) Maintenance and storage
• Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure the appliance is in safe working condition.
• Check the grass catcher frequently for wear or deterioration.
• Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.
• For cylinder mowers, be careful during adjustment of the appliance to prevent entrapment of the
fingers between moving blades and fixed parts of the appliance.

WARNING!:
BEFORE CLEANING YOUR ECOMOW
ELECTRIC MOWER OR CARRYING OUT ANY
MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE, MAKE SURE THAT THE
MOTOR IS OFF AND THE TOOL DISCONNECTED FROM
THE POWER SUPPLY TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL
STARTING.
WARNING!
When using mains-powered tools, basic safety precautions, including
the following, should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock,
personal injury and material damage.
Read the whole manual carefully and make sure you know how to switch the tool off in an
emergency, before operating the tool.
Save these instructions and other documents supplied with this tool for future reference.
The electric motor has been designed for 230V and 240V only. Always check that the power supply
corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
Note: The supply of 230V and 240V on Ozito tools are interchangeable for Australia and New
Zealand.
This tool is double insulated therefore no earth wire is required.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an electrician or a power tool repairer
in order to avoid a hazard.
Note:
Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this
tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury resulting from a possible electrical
insulation failure within the tool.
1. Before use, examine cord for damage; replace it if there are signs of damage or ageing.
2. Do not use the lawn mower if the electric cables are damaged or worn.
3. Immediately disconnect from the mains electricity supply if the cord is cut, or the insulation is
damaged. Do not touch the electric cord until the electricity supply has been disconnected. Do not
repair a cut or damaged cord; replace it with a new one.
4. Your extension lead must be unwound, coiled leads can overheat and reduce the efficiency of
your mower.
5. Keep lead away from lawn mower; always work away from the power point mowing up and down
never in circles.
6. Do not pull lead around sharp objects.
7. Always switch off at the mains before disconnecting any plug, cord or extension lead.
8. Never carry the product by the cord.
9. Never pull on the cord to disconnect any of the plugs.
10. Use only AC mains supply voltage shown on the product rating label.
11. It is recommended that the appliance should by supplied via a residual current device (RCD) with
a tripping current of not more than 30 mA.
12. Use at least a 10 Amp rated 1.0 mm2 extension cord with a maximum of 25 meters and the cord
shall be not lighter than:
- If rubber insulated, ordinary tough rubber sheathed flexible cord (code designation 60245 IEC 53);
- If polyvinyl chloride insulated, ordinary polyvinyl chloride sheathed flexible cord (code designation
60227 IEC 53).
WARNING!
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1. Work area safety
a.
Keep work area clean and well lit
. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a.
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock
if your body is earthed or grounded.
c.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
d.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable
for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
b.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to
power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
e.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
f.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
g.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
4. Power tool use and care
a.
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
e.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
f.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power
tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5. Service
a.
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
b.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
