as bracelets or necklaces which may get caught in the handle etc. Always wear solid shoes
with non-skid rubber soles. Never operate the mower when barefoot or when wearing
sandals.
14. Always wear SAFETY GLASSES to avoid eye damage from foreign objects such as twigs,
small rocks etc. which may be struck by the rotating blade. (Regular eyeglasses are not
safety glasses.) Wear work gloves to protect your hands.

16. If you are sensitive to the noise, wear hearing protection during long periods
17. Never operate the mower while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.

OPERATOR PRESENCE CONTROL LEVER is released. Have the unit inspected by an
Authorised Service Centre.
20. Always inspect the area to be mowed ahead of time. Clear the area of items such as
stones, sticks, twigs, pine cones and other large foreign objects which may be struck
or thrown by the blade and which may cause personal injury. Foreign objects may also
damage the mower.
21. Keep the mower clean and dry. Use a damp cloth when cleaning. Never use water,

blades with the correct orientation. Original EnvirOmower blades are permanently stamped
(in English) “THIS SIDE UP”
26. Remove adjusting wrenches after each blade change, and make a habit of checking under
the deck that no wrench is present (and for other possible hazards) before each use.

other obvious problems which may affect proper operation. Have damaged or defective
parts repaired or replaced by an Authorised Service Centre
