General safety warnings
Personal Safety (continued)
• Check the site on which you intend to use the lawn mower
and remove all objects that may be caught or thrown up
by the mower. Foreign bodies must be removed before
you start mowing. Keep an eye on the power cable and
keep it away from the cutting blade at all times.
• Never lift the lawn mower when you start the motor.
• Before you lift the lawn mower to transport it, switch off
the motor, disconnect the mains lead and wait until the
blade has come to a complete standstill.
• When you start the motor, the lawn mower should not be
tilted unless the grass is particularly long. In this case, only
tilt it up as far as is really necessary and only raise the side
that is furthest away from you.
• Never reach towards rotating parts with your hands or
feet. Always keep away from the discharge chute.
• Before you attach or empty the grass collection box,
switch off the motor and wait until the blade has come to
a complete standstill.
• Make sure you keep your feet at a safe distance from the
mower blade at all times! Do not stand near the grass
ejection chute if the grass collection box is not fitted.
• The safety distance from the moving blade produced by
the push handle must be maintained at all times.
• If you use the mower on a small incline, mow across the
slope (not in an up and down direction). Always be sure of
your footing on slopes.
• Be particularly careful when changing direction with the
mower whilst working on a slope.
• Do not use the lawn mower on gradients of over 15°
.
