the recommended safety instructions before,

maintain your mower in good working order.

Safety instructions
Training
•
Never allow children or persons who are
unfamiliar with this type of mower to use
it, nor anyone who has not read this user
manual.
360
6m / 20ft
Do not allow children, animals or
other persons near your mower
when in use - always keep them
at least 6m (20ft) away from the
cutting area.
•
Remember that the operator is
responsible for accidents or hazards
occurring to other people or their property.
•
Your mower is designed for use on AC
(mains) electrical supplies only - do not
attempt to use it on any other supply.
•
Plug your mower into a power point -
never a lighting socket.
!
•
Never carry your mower by the cable or
jerk the cable to seperate the
connectors. Keep the cable away from
heat sources, oils or sharp edges. Check
the condition of your cable before use
and do not use if damaged.
Preparation
•
To protect your feet, always wear stout
shoes or boots - freshly cut grass is
damp and slippery.
•
Rubber or man-made footwear will
enhance your safety.
•
Do not operate your mower barefoot or
in open sandals.
•
Use protective equipment. Wear safety
spectacles or goggles whilst operating
your mower. Use ear protection if the
sound level seems uncomfortable when
using your mower.
•
Use a face mask if dusty.
•
Wear long trousers to protect your legs -
any debris left on the lawn or cutting path
may be picked up and ejected by the
blades.
•
The power supply cable should be
regularly inspected for signs of damage or
ageing, and only used if in good condition.
•
Always keep the power supply cable
away from the blades - be aware of its
position at all times.
•
Always be sure your mower is in a safe
operating condition.
•
Before using your mower, disconnect it
from the electrical supply and visually
check that the blade, blade nut and
cutter assembly are not worn or
damaged. A damaged blade or worn
blade nut is a major hazard and must be
replaced. Also check that the blade nut is
securely fastened.
•
Always check that your lawn or cutting
path is clear of all sticks, stones, wire
and other debris. Contact with such
debris may be dangerous or may
damage your mower and could be
thrown by the blade.
Operation
•
When tilting the handle downwards (or to
the side) to start your mower, do not tilt it
more than is absolutely necessary.
Always ensure that both hands are in the
operating position and feet are well away
from the blades before returning your
mower to the ground.
Your mower will continue to run
for a short time after releasing
the switch lever. Always allow
your mower to stop on its own.
•
Release the switch lever to turn your
mower off and remove the plug from
the mains:
