Safe Operating Practices
The following instructions are from the CEN standard
EN 836:1997.
This product is capable of amputating hands and feet
and throwing objects. Always follow all safety
instructions to avoid serious injury or death.
Training
•
Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with
the controls and the proper use of the equipment.
•
Never allow children or people unfamiliar with
these instructions to use the lawnmower. Local
regulations can restrict the age of the operator.
•
Never mow while people, especially children, or
pets are nearby.
•
Keep in mind that the operator or user is
responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to
other people or their property.
•
Do not carry passengers.
•
All drivers should seek and obtain professional
and practical instruction. Such instruction should
emphasize:
•
the need for care and concentration when
working with ride-on machines;
•
control of a ride-on machine sliding on a
slope will not be regained by the application
of the brake. The main reasons for loss of
control are:
•
insufficient wheel grip;
•
being driven too fast;
•
inadequate braking;
•
the type of machine is unsuitable for
its task;
•
lack of awareness of the effect of
ground conditions, especially slopes;
•
incorrect hitching and load
distribution.
Preparation
•
While mowing, always wear substantial
footwear and long trousers. Do not operate the
equipment when barefoot or wearing open
sandals.
•
Thoroughly inspect the area where the
equipment is to be used and remove all objects
which may be thrown by the machine.
•
WARNING – Petrol is highly flammable.
•
Store fuel in containers specifically
designed for this purpose.
•
Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke
while refuelling.
