Danger
Accident
– No person, especially children,

allowed to stand close to the
appliance while it is in use. Risk
of injury due to ejected stones or
other objects.
Falling over
– Operate the vehicle at walking
speed only.
– Be particularly careful when
mowing in reverse and pulling
the appliance towards you.
– When mowing on steep slopes,
there is a risk of the appliance
tipping over and you could be
injured as a result. Mow
crossways to the slope, never
upwards and down-wards. Do
not mow on slopes with an incline
greater than 20%.
– Be particularly careful when
changing the direction and
always pay attention to a good
position.
– Mowing along perimeters
involves a risk of injury. Mowing
near edges, hedges, or steep
inclines is dangerous. Keep a
safe distance from perimeters
when mowing.
– If the ground is wet the appliance
could slip due to reduced traction
and overturn. Only cut the grass
when the ground is dry.
– Work only by daylight or in good
artificial lighting.
Injury
– Always observe the safety
distance to the rotating tool
specified by the steering handle.
– Never place your hands, feet,
or other parts of the body near
rotating parts.
– Turn off the engine and wait until
the blade has stopped:
– before tilting the appliance,
– for transporting over surfaces
other than grass,
– Switch off the engine and prevent
the engine from being started
unintentionally, remove ignition
key (if used) and remove spark-
plug terminal,

blockages and other
hindrances,

hot, do not check, inspect or
service/adjust the appliance.
– Only use the mower in dry
weather conditions. Keep the
mower away from rain or
dampness. If used on wet grass,
the mower may slip because of
reduced adhesion.

raining or there is a risk of
storms.
Appliances with grass catchers:

you or other persons might get
injured due to ejected, mowed
materials or foreign bodies.
