Safety Instructions for
Walk-Behind Mowers
General Operation
• Read, understand and follow all the safety regulations
and instructions on the machine and in the manual before
starting.
• Only responsible adults who are thoroughly familiar with
the operator controls and the operation of the machine
should be allowed to use the mower.
• Make sure that the mowing area is clear of children, pets
and other bystanders before starting the machine. Stop
the machine if anyone enters the area.
• Do not tip the machine when starting. The machine should
be on level ground and you should have a firm grasp on
the handle when powering ON.
• Disconnect the power supply (i.e. remove the battery and/
or disconnect the power cord):
i) Whenever you leave the machine unattended;
ii) Before releasing a blocked cutter;
iii) Before inspecting, cleaning or performing other
maintenance on the machine;
iv) If a foreign body has been struck;
v) Whenever the machine starts to vibrate oddly.
• Never mow in the direct vicinity of persons – especially
children – or animals.
• Do not operate the machine barefooted or while wearing
sandals. Always wear substantial footwear.
• Check the ground on which the equipment will be used
and remove all objects that could be picked up and
violently flung by the rotary mower blade.
• Before using the mower, visually inspect it to ensure that
the blade, mounting bolts and the entire cutting apparatus
are in proper working order (i.e. not worn or damaged).
To prevent any operating imbalance, replace worn or
damaged blades and mounting bolts as a set only (if
applicable).
Handling
• Only mow in broad daylight or under well-lit conditions.
• Avoid dangerous environments. Do not use the mower in
the rain or on damp/wet grass.
• Always maintain good footing on inclines.
• Only operate the mower at a walking pace.
• Always mow across hills (i.e. never straight up or straight
down).
• Be particularly careful when you change direction on a
slope.
• Do not mow on overly steep inclines.
• Take extra caution when turning the mower around and
when pulling it towards you.
• Switch the mower off, remove the battery and/or
disconnect the power cord, wait until the cutters have
reached a complete standstill when tipping the mower
over, transporting it over surfaces other than grass, and
when moving the mower to and from the area you wish to
mow.
• Never use the lawn mower if the guards (e.g. side-
discharge chute deflectors, grass-catching devices) are
damaged or not properly fitted.
• Use the switch lever carefully as described in the
manufacturer’s instructions. Make sure that your feet are
far enough away from the mower blade when starting and
using the mower!
• The lawn mower should not be tilted when the motor
is switched on unless it has to be raised for starting
purposes. In this case, tilt it as little as absolutely
necessary and only raise the side opposite to that of the
user.
• Do not switch on the mower if you are positioned in front
of the discharge chute.
• Never move your hands or feet toward or under any
rotating parts. Keep clear of the discharge chute opening
at all times.
• Never lift or carry a lawn mower with the engine running.
• Switch off the motor, remove the battery and/or
disconnect the power cord and wait for the rotating blades
to stop completely: before you dislodge any blockages
or clogs in the discharge chute or mower deck; before
carrying out any checks, cleaning, maintenance or other
work on the lawn mower; and immediately after striking a
foreign object. Examine the mower for signs of damage
and carry out any necessary repairs before restarting and
continuing to work with the mower. If the lawn mower
starts to vibrate oddly, immediately switch it off and
inspect it.
• Switch off the mower, remove the battery and/or
disconnect the power cord whenever you leave the
mower.
