Safety instructions
7) The machine is equipped with a series of safety microswitches and devices which must
never be removed, altered or tampered with. Removing these devices invalidates the
warranty and the manufacturer declines any responsibility.
B) PREPARATION
1) While mowing, always wear substantial footwear and long trousers. Do not operate the
equipment when barefoot or wearing open sandals.
2) Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to be used and remove all objects
which may be thrown by the machine (stones, sticks, metal wire, bones, etc.)
3) WARNING: DANGER! - Engine fuel is highly flammable:
– store fuel in containers specifically designed for this purpose;
– refuel using a funnel and outdoors only. Do not smoke while refuelling or whenever
handling the fuel;
– add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the cap of the fuel tank or add fuel while
the engine is running or when the engine is hot;
– if fuel is spilt, do not attempt to start the engine but move the machine away from the area
of spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition until the fuel has evaporated and the
fumes dispersed;
– replace caps of all fuel tanks and containers securely.
4) Replace faulty silencers.
5) Before using, always carry out a visual inspection, particularly of the blade, seeing that the
screws and cutter assembly are not worn or damaged. Replace a worn or damaged blade
and screws as a set to preserve balance.
6) Before working, attach the discharge opening guards (grass-catcher, side discharge
guard or rear discharge guard).
C) OPERATION
1) Do not operate the engine in a confined space where dangerous carbon monoxide fumes
can collect.
2) Mow only in daylight or with good artificial light in good visibility conditions. Keep persons,
children and animals away from the working area.
3) If possible, avoid mowing wet grass. Avoid working in the rain and when there is a
thunderstorm risk.
4)
Before starting the engine, disengage the blade and put the transmission in “neutral”.
5) Be very careful near ravines, ditches or embankments.
6) Do not use on slopes of more than 10° (17%).
7) Remember there is no such thing as a “safe” slope. Travel 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.
8) Exercise extreme caution when operating in reverse.
9) 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.
10) Stop the blade rotating and put the cutting deck into the highest position before crossing
surfaces other than grass.
11) Never use the machine to cut grass if the guards are defective, or without the grass-
catcher, the side discharge guard or the rear discharge guard in place.
