2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To ensure safe operation
Read and understand the Owner’s Manual before operating the mower.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
Read instructions carefully, become familiar with controls and proper use
of equipment.
Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these instructions to use the
lawn mower.
Never mow while people, especially children, or pets are nearby.
Keep in mind that the operator is responsible for accidents or hazards that
occur to people or their property.
While mowing, always wear substantial footwear and long trousers. Do
not operate the equipment when barefoot or wearing open sandals.
Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to be used and
remove all objects which may be thrown by the machine.
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 while 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 the petrol vapours have dissipated.
Before using, always visually inspect to see that the blade, blade bolt(s) and
mower housing are not worn or damaged. Replace worn or damaged
blade and bolt(s) in sets to preserve balance.
Do not operate the engine in a confined space where dangerous carbon
monoxide fumes can collect.
Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.
Avoid operating the equipment in wet grass, where feasible.
Mowing in slopes:
- Always be sure of your footing on slopes.
- Mow across slopes, never up and down.
- Walk, never run.
- Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on slopes.
- Do not mow excessively steep slopes (20 degrees).
