Safety

•
Add fuel before starting the engine. Never
remove the cap of the fuel tank or add
petrol while the engine is running or when
the engine is hot.
•
If petrol is spilled, 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 petrol vapors
have dissipated.
•
Replace all fuel tanks and container caps
securely.
•
Replace faulty silencers.
•
Before using, always visually inspect to see that
the blades, blade bolts and cutter assembly are
not worn or damaged. Replace worn or damaged
blades and bolts in sets to preserve balance.
•
On multi-bladed machines, take care as rotating
one blade can cause other blades to rotate.
Operation
•
Do not operate the engine in a confined space
where dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can
collect.
•
Mow only in daylight or in good artificial light.
•
Before attempting to start the engine, disengage
all blade attachment clutches and shift into
neutral.
•
Do not use on slopes of more than
•
5
when mowing on side hills;
•
10
when mowing uphill;
•
15
when mowing downhill.
•
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 clutch slowly, always keep 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,
unless the lawnmower is designed for this
purpose.
•
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
when suggested in the instruction
handbook.
•
Watch out for traffic when crossing or near
roadways.
•
Stop the blades rotating before crossing surfaces
other than grass.
•
When using any attachments, never direct
discharge of material toward bystanders nor
allow anyone near the machine while in
operation.
•
Never operate the machine with defective guards
or without safety protective devices in place.
•
Do not change the engine governor settings or
overspeed the engine. Operating the engine at
excessive speed can increase the hazard of
personal injury.
•
Before leaving the operator’s position:
•
disengage the power take-off and lower the
attachments;
