Personal safety

• Always check the mower for signs of damage 

before each usage.

• Always disconnect the mains lead from the 

electrical supply before carrying out any 

inspection, servicing or maintenance work.

• Ensure that all the guards are securely fitted 

and in good working order.

• Check the grass collection bag at regular 

intervals for signs of wear and to ensure that 

it is always in perfect working order.

• Before each use, inspect the mower to 

check the cutting blade, fastening bolts 

and the entire cutting unit for any signs 

of wear or damage. To prevent imbalance 

or vibration, worn or damaged cutting 

blades and fastening bolts must always be 

replaced in full.

• Damaged parts on the mower must be 

replaced by qualified personnel. Use only 

genuine spare parts.

• In areas where the mains supply is weak or 

bearing a high load, this mower may cause 

further voltage fluctuations as it starts. In 

extreme cases, this can cause damage to 

other equipment working from the same 

supply. In this case, we recommend to 

temporarily switch off any un-required 

equipment or connect it to a different circuit.
