Operating and maintenance safety
CAUTION!
Read all safety requirements and
instructions. Any errors made in following the
safety requirements and instructions may
result in an electric shock, fire or serious
injury.

a safe place for future use.
• Do not use the lawn mower if the cords are
damaged or worn.
• Do not connect a damaged cord to the
mains supply or touch a damaged cord
before it is disconnected from the mains

electrocution.
• Do not attempt to touch the blades before
the machine is disconnected from the
supply and the blades have come to a
complete stop.
• Keep extension cords away from the blade.
The blade can cause damage to cords and
lead to contact with live parts.
• Disconnect from the mains supply
(i.e. remove the plug from the mains socket)
− Whenever leaving the machine unattended.

− After striking a foreign object.
− Whenever the machine starts vibrating
abnormally.
