Operating Instructions & Tips
Before you connect the equipment to the mains supply make sure that the data on the rating plate
corresponds to your mains supply.
IMPORTANT
!
Always ensure the on/off switch is working correctly. Do not use if you suspect a fault.
Before you perform any repair or maintenance work on the machine, ensure that the blade is not rotating
and that the power supply is disconnected.
IMPORTANT
!
Never open the deflector flap if the grass box is being emptied and the motor is still
running. The rotating blade can cause serious injuries and throw objects out at high speed.
Always the grass deflector and grass collector fit securely. Always switch off the motor before you remove
these items.
A safe distance between the blade deck and the user is provided by the length of the handle. This
distance must be maintained at all times. Take special care when mowing and changing direction on
embankments and slopes. Ensure that you have a secure surface to stand on, wear shoes with anti-slip
soles that offer good grip, and long trousers. Always mow across the slope (not in up or down direction).
Do not use the mower on gradients exceeding 15° for safety reasons.
Take special care when moving backwards and pulling the lawn mower. Never pull the mower backwards
when the motor is running.
