SAFETY

C) OPERATION
1) Do not start the engine in a confined space where
dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect.
2) Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.
3) Before starting the engine, disengage the blades and shift into
neutral.
4)
Do not use the machine on lawns with gradients of more than
15°(27%)
;
do not use the machine on lawns with side gradients
above 10°(18%).
5)
Remember there is no such thing as a “safe” slope
. Travelling
on grass slopes requires particular care. To guard against overturning:
– do not stop or start suddenly when going up or downhill;
– engage the drive slowly and always keep the machine in gear,
especially when travelling downhill;
– machine speeds should be kept low on slopes and during tight
turns;
– stay alert for humps and hollows and other hidden hazards;
–
never mow across the face of the slope.
6) Use care when pulling loads or using heavy equipment:
– use only approved drawbar hitch points;
– limit loads to those you can safely control;
– do not turn sharply. Use care when reversing;
– use counterweight(s) or wheel weights whenever advised in the
instructions manual.
7) Stop the blades before crossing surfaces other than grass.
8)
Never use the machine with damaged guards, or without the
safety protective devices in place.
9)
Do not change the engine governor settings or overspeed the
engine.
Operating the engine at excessive speed can increase the risk of
personal injury.
10) Before leaving the driving seat:
– disengage the blades and lower the attachments;
– go into neutral and apply the parking brake;
– stop the engine and remove the ignition key.
11)
Disengage the blades, stop the engine and remove the
ignition key:
– before clearing blockages or unclogging the collector channel;
– before cleaning, checking or servicing the machine;
