The safety devices must not be modified.

•

Do not change the basic settings of the engine or operate the engine at
excessive speed.

•

During the starting process, do not switch on the drive if available.

When you start the machine, make sure that your feet are at a sufficiently

safe distance away from the cutting blades.

When the engine is started, the machine must not be tilted on end, if
necessary it must be tilted by pressing the guide bar down so that the

cutting tool is pointing in the direction away from the user, but only as far
as absolutely necessary. For as long as the equipment has not been

lowered to the ground again, both your hands must be on the top part of
the bar.
Do not start the engine when persons or animals are standing in front of

the mower.
When using equipment with a side ejector, do not start the engine when

you are standing in front of the ejector channel or other people/animals
are located in the ejection area.

Never put your hands or feet near or under revolving parts. Always make

sure that your hands or feet do not get under the housing. Always

maintain a safe distance from the ejector opening.

Stop the engine by releasing the motor stop bar, disconnect the spark-plug

connector, make sure that all moving parts have come to a complete
standstill and the ignition key, if there is one, has been removed:

–

if you intend to leave the machine;

–

before you inspect, clean or carry out work on the machine;

–

before unblocking jams or removing blockages in the ejection

channel;

–

if a foreign body has been encountered.

–

when the machine starts to vibrate strangely.

•

If a foreign object has been encountered or if the machine becomes

blocked, e.g. by driving onto an obstacle, a specialist dealer must check whether

parts of the machine have been damaged or deformed. Any necessary repairs
must also be carried out by an authorized specialist workshop.

•

If the machine starts to vibrate unusually heavily or to make unusual noises,

please have it checked immediately by an authorised workshop.
Heavy vibrations on your hands can damage your health. Please contact an

authorised workshop immediately if heavy vibrations occur.

•

WARNING

The noise and vibration levels shown in these operating instructions are the
maximum levels for use of the machine.

The use of an unbalanced cutting element, the excessive speed of movement, or
the absence of maintenance have a significant influence on noise emissions and

vibrations. Consequently, it is necessary to take preventive steps to eliminate
possible damage due to high levels of noise and stress from vibration.

Maintain the machine well, wear ear protection devices, and take breaks while
working.

Adhere to the maintenance work listed in this operating manual and have the
equipment checked and serviced regularly by an authorised workshop.

Stop the engine by releasing the motor stop bar, make sure that all moving

parts have come to a complete standstill and the ignition key, if there is
one, has been removed,

–

if you have to lift or tilt the mower e.g. for transport purposes;

–

when you need to transport the machine to and from the area to be

mowed

–

when driving off the lawn;

–

if you have to leave the machine for a short time;

–

when you wish to adjust the cutting height;

–

before you remove the grass collecting bag;

–

before you remove the mulching plug;

–

before you fill it with fuel. Only refill when the engine is cold!

•

If the engine is equipped with a petrol shut-off valve, this should be closed

after mowing.

Maintenance and storage

•

Insufficient equipment maintenance will lead to safety-related faults.

•

Ensure that all screws have been tightened securely and that the machine
is in a safe working condition.

The ejection flap must only be opened and the grass collector or mulch

stopper removed when the engine is turned off.

Never store a machine which still contains petrol inside a building where

petrol fumes may come into contact with naked flames or sparks or where

they may ignite.

The engine and exhaust reach very high temperatures during operation.
Allow the machine to cool down for at least 15 minutes before starting any

maintenance or cleaning work.

•

To avoid a fire hazard, keep the engine, muffler (exhaust) and fuel tank free of

grass, leaves or escaping oil (grease).
When tilting the machine upwards or placing it on its side, make sure no oil or

petrol escapes. Fire hazard!
Allow the engine to cool down before you store the machine in closed rooms.

Do not store the machine near open flames or sources of fire such as boilers or
heating systems.

Before you start mowing, always check the grass collecting equipment for

wear or loss of functionality.

Before you start mowing, always check the condition and firm attachment

of the cutting blade. The blade attachment screw must always be tightened
by an authorised workshop. If the blade screw is too tight or too loose, the

blade coupling and cutter bar can become damaged or loose which can
lead to serious injuries. A worn or damaged blade must always be

replaced.

Changing, regrinding and balancing the cutting blade must be carried out

by an authorised professional workshop.
A wrongly assembled cutting blade coupling can allow the cutting blade

bar to get loose and cause severe injuries.
An improperly ground and imbalanced cutting blade can cause strong

vibrations and damage the lawn mower.

•

For reasons of safety, always replace worn or damaged parts.

Protective gloves must be worn at all times during maintenance and

cleaning work.

•

When handling operating fluids, such as engine oil and fuel, suitable protective
