The lawn mower should not be
operated after the
consumption of alcohol,
medications which impair
reactions, or drugs.
Before initial use, advice
should be obtained from the
vendor or another expert.
Caution!
The lawn mower is only
intended for mowing lawns; its
use for other purposes is not
permitted and may be
dangerous or result in damage
to the appliance.
Risk of accident!
Due to the physical danger to
the user, the lawn mower must
not be used, for example, for
the following applications
(incomplete list):
for trimming bushes, hedges
and shrubs,
for cutting creepers,
for care of lawn roofs and of
balcony boxes,
for clearing paths (vacuuming,
blowing, clearing snow),
for shredding and chopping
tree and hedge cuttings,
for levelling earth mounds, e.g.
mole hills
or for transporting cuttings
(except in the grass catcher
bag provided).
Preparatory measures
- Always wear
robust shoes
and long
trousers when mowing.
Never mow barefoot or in
sandals.
- Carefully inspect the
complete area on which
the appliance is to be used
and remove any stones,
sticks, wires, bones and
other foreign objects which
could be thrown up by the
appliance.
- Before using the appliance,
always ensure that the
cutting tool, the fastening
bolts and the entire cutting
unit are in good condition.
- Caution!
Danger of
electric shock!
Particularly important for
electrical safety are the
mains cable, plug, on/off
switch and connection
cord. Damaged cables,
connectors and plugs, or
connection cords that do
not conform to regulations
must not be used, to
prevent any risk of electric
shocks. Therefore, check
the connection cord
regularly for signs of
damage or ageing
(brittleness).
- Never use the mower with
damaged safety devices or
safety guards, without
functioning blade brake or
attached safety devices,
e.g. without the ejection
flap or the grass-catching
unit.
- For safety reasons, always
use an undamaged grass
catcher bag.
