Operation
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.

slopes. Ensure that you have a secure surfaceto 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).

Take special care when moving backwards and pulling the lawn mower.
