sers. Do not operate the equipment when barefoot or wearing
open sandals.
Wear appropriate protective clothing and equipment when
you are operating the lawnmower, such as safety glasses, long
trousers, substantial footwear and ear protection. Long Hair,

WARNING – Petrol is highly flammable.
– Store fuel in containers specifically designed for this purpose.
– Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke while refuelling.
– Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the cap
of the fuel tank or add petrol whilst the engine is running or
when the engine is hot.
– If petrol is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine but
move the machine away from the area of spillage and
avoid creating any source of ignition until petrol vapours
have dissipated.
– Replace the fuel tank and container caps securely.
– Replace faulty silencers.
– Do not operate the engine in a confined space where dan-
gerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect.
– Before using, always visually inspect to see that the blades,
blade bolts and cutter assembly are not worn or damaged.
On multi-bladed lawnmower, take care as rotating one
blade cause other blades to rotate.
Mow only in daylight or in good artificial light.
Avoid operating the lawnmower in wet grass, where feasible.
Always be sure of your footing on slopes.
Walk, never run.
Mowing on banks can be dangerous:
– Mow across the face of slopes - never up and down.
– Be particularly careful of your footing on slopes or wet grass.
Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on slopes.
Do not mow excessively steep slopes.
– Use extreme caution when stepping back or pulling the
lawnmower towards you. Never cut grass by pulling the
mower towards you.
Stop the blades if the lawnmower has to be tilted for transporta-
tion when crossing surfaces other than grass and when trans-
porting the lawnmower to and from the area to be mowed.
Do not tilt the lawnmower when starting or switching on the mo-
tor, except if the lawnmower has to be tilted for starting in long
grass. In this case, do not tilt it more than absolutely necessary
and lift only the part which is away from the operator. Always
ensure that both hands are in the operating position before re-
turning the mower to the ground.
Never operate the lawnmower with defective guards, or with-
out the safety devices, for example deflectors and/or grass
catches, in place.
Do not change the engine governor settings or overspeed the
engine. Operating an engine at excessive speed may increase
the hazard of personal injury.
Disengage all blade and drive clutches before starting the en-
gine.
Start the engine or switch on the motor carefully according to
instructions and with feet well away from the blade(s). Do not tilt
the mower when starting. Keep clear of the discharge opening
at all times. Never pick up or carry a lawnmower while the en-
gine is running.
Do not put hands or feet near, or under, rotating parts while the
lawnmower is being operated.
Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug lead:
– before checking, cleaning or working on the lawnmower
– after striking a foreign object. Inspect the lawnmower for
damage and make repairs before restarting and operating
the lawnmower.
– if the lawnmower starts to vibrate abnormally (check imme-
diately).
– before making height of cut adjustment
Stop the engine:
– whenever you leave the machine
– before refuelling
– before clearing blockages

Reduce the throttle setting during engine shut-down and if the
engine with a shut off valve, turn the fuel off at the conclusion
of mowing.
Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure that the lawn-
mower is in safe working condition.
Replace worn or damaged blades and bolts in sets to preserve
balance.
Never store the lawnmower with petrol in the tank inside a build-
ing where fumes may reach open flame or spark.
Allow the engine to cool before storing in any enclosure.
To reduce the fire hazard, keep the engine, silencer, battery
compartment and petrol storage area free of grass, leaves or
excessive grease.
Check the grassbox/bag frequently for wear or deterioration.
Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.
Go slow when using a trailing seat.
If the fuel tank has to be drained, this should be done outdoors.
