Operating Instructions
Safety instructions
WARNING! Danger of injury!
Improper use of the lawnmower can cause
injuries. The rotating cutting blades can cause
severe injuries due to cuts and can even sever
body parts. There is also a risk of injury due to
objects that are caught by the lawnmower and
swung around, as well as due to handling the
rechargeable battery incorrectly.

Read the operating instructions carefully. Fa-
miliarise yourself with the controls and the cor-
rect use of the machine.

Only start the motor once your feet are at a
safe distance from the cutting blades.

Never insert hands or feet into or under rotat-
ing parts.

Always keep clear of the grass discharge and
never reach under the housing. Never reach
into the grass discharge even if cut grass is
still in there.

your fingers cannot be trapped between mov -
ing cutting blades and fixed parts.
