■ The lawn mower may cause vibrations when
working.
► Wear work gloves.
► Take breaks.
► If signs of a circulatory disturbance occur:
consult a doctor.
■ Inspect the mowing area and look out for
obstacles. If the blade hits a foreign object
when working, the foreign object or parts of it
may be thrown up at high velocity. This may
result in injury to people and damage to prop‐
erty.
► Remove foreign objects such as
stones, sticks, wires, toys or other
foreign objects from the working
area. Mark hidden objects that can‐
not be removed.
■ When the control bar for mowing is released,
the blade continues to turn for a short time.
This may result in serious injury to people.
► Wait until the blade is no longer turn‐
ing.
► Do not detach the grass catcher box
until the blade stops turning.
■ Sparks may be produced if the turning blade
hits a hard object. Sparks may cause fires in
highly flammable environments. This may
result in serious or fatal injury to people and
damage to property.
► Do not work in a highly flammable environ‐
ment.
■ If the lawn mower is stopped on a sloping sur‐
face, it may unintentionally roll away. This may
result in injury to people and damage to prop‐
erty.
► Only release the lawn mower if it is on a
level surface and cannot roll away by itself.
■ If objects are attached to the handlebar, the
additional weight may cause the lawn mower
to tip over. This may result in injury to people
and damage to property.
► Do not attach objects to the handlebar.
DANGER
■ If working near live wires, the blade may come
into contact with the live wires and damage
them. This may result in serious or fatal injury
to the user.
► Do not work near live wires.
■ The user may be struck by lighting if working
during a thunderstorm. This may result in seri‐
ous or fatal injury to the user.
► Do not work during thunderstorms.
■ Working in the rain may cause the user to slip.
This may result in serious or fatal injury to the
user.
► Do not work when it is raining.
4.9
Transporting
WARNING
■ The lawn mower may tip over or move during
transport. This may result in injury to people
and damage to property.
► Stop the engine.
► Wait until the blade is no longer turn‐
ing.
► Detach the spark plug socket.
► Secure the lawn mower on a suitable load
floor with lashing straps, belts or a net so it
cannot tip over and move.
■ The muffler and engine may be hot after the
engine has been running. This may result in
the user burning themselves when transport‐
ing the machine.
► Push the lawn mower.
■ The lawn mower is heavy. Attempting to carry
the lawn mower without assistance may result
in injury to the user.
► Wear protective gloves.
► The lawn mower must be carried by two
people.
■ During transport, petrol may leak and cause
contamination and damage.
► Push the lawn mower.
► Transport the machine without petrol in it.
4.10
Storing
WARNING
■ Children cannot recognise or evaluate the
dangers posed by the lawn mower. There is a
risk of serious injury to children.
► Stop the engine.
► Keep the lawn mower out of reach of chil‐
dren.
■ Moisture may cause corrosion of metal com‐
ponents. This may result in damage to the
lawn mower.
► Keep the lawn mower clean and dry.
■ If the lawn mower is kept on a sloping surface,
it may unintentionally roll away. This may
result in injury to people and damage to prop‐
erty.
► The lawn mower should only be kept on
level surfaces.
