Important!
When using the equipment, a few safety precautions
must be observed to avoid injuries and damage.
Please read the complete operating instructions and
safety regulations with due care. Keep this manual in
a safe place, so that the information is available at all
times. If you give the equipment to any other person,
hand over these operating instructions and safety
regulations as well. We cannot accept any liability for
damage or accidents which arise due to a failure to
follow these instructions and the safety instructions.
1. Safety instructions for hand-
operated lawn mowers
Note
1. Read the directions with due care. Familiarize
yourself with the settings and proper operation of
the machine.
2. Never allow children or other persons who are
not familiar with the operating instructions to use
the mower. Contact your local governmental
agency for information regarding minimum age
requirements for operating the mower.
3. Never mow in the direct vicinity of persons -
especially children - or animals. Always keep in
mind that the operator is responsible for
accidents involving other persons and/or their
property.
4. If you give the equipment to any other person,
give them these operating instructions as well.
Preliminary measures
1. Always wear sturdy, non-slip footwear and long
trousers when mowing. Never mow barefoot or in
sandals.
2. Check the grounds on which the machine will be
used and remove all objects that could be caught
up and violently flung out of the chute.
3. Warning: Petrol is highly flammable! Therefore:
- Only store petrol in containers designed to hold
petroleum-based liquids.
- Only refuel out in the open and do not smoke
during the refueling process.
- Always refuel the lawn mower
before starting
the engine. Always ensure that the fuel tank cap
is closed when the engine is running and when
the mower is hot; also do not refuel.
- If petrol has overflowed, do not under any
circumstances attempt to start the engine.
Instead, remove the machine from the affected
area. Avoid starting the engine until the petrol
fumes have completely evaporated.
- For safety reasons, the petrol tank and other
tank closures must be replaced if they are
damaged.
4. Replace defective mufflers.
5. Before using the mower, visually inspect it to
ensure that the blade, mounting bolts and the
entire cutting apparatus are in good working
order (i.e. not worn out or damaged). To prevent
any imbalance, replace worn out or damaged
blades and mounting bolts as a set only (if
applicable).
6. Please note that where a mower has more than
one blade, the rotation of one of the blades can
cause the others to rotate as well.
Handling
1. Do not let the combustion engine run in enclosed
areas, as dangerous carbon monoxide gas can
build up.
2. Only mow in broad daylight or in well-lit
conditions. Avoid using the machine on wet
grass as far as possible.
3. Always maintain good footing on inclines.
4. Only operate the machine at a walking pace.
5. For machines with wheels: Always mow
across
hills i.e. never straight up or straight down.
6. Be particularly careful when you change direction
on a slope.
7. Do not mow on overly steep inclines.
8. Always be extra careful when turning the mower
around and when pulling it towards you.
9. Switch off the lawn mower and ensure that the
blade has stopped rotating whenever the mower
has to be tilted for transporting over areas other
than lawns and whenever it has to be moved
from or to the area you want to mow.
10. Never use the lawn mower if the blade or safety
grilles are damaged, or without the attached
guards, e.g. deflectors and/or grass catching
devices.
11. Do not adjust or overclock the engine speed
settings.
12. Release the engine brake before you start the
engine.
13. Start the engine with care, in accordance with
the manufacturerʼs instructions. Make sure that
your feet are far enough away from the mower
blade!
14. Do not tilt the lawn mower when you start the
engine unless the mower must raised off of the
ground a little in order to start it. In the latter
case, tilt the mower as little as absolutely
necessary and only raise the side opposite to
that of the user.
15. Never start the engine while standing in front of
the chute.
16. Never move your hands or feet toward or under
