3.
When mowing on steep slopes, there is a risk of the mower tipping over and
you could be injured as a result. Mow crossways to the slope, never upwards
and downwards. Do not mow on inclines greater than 20%.
4.
Be particularly careful when changing the direction and always pay attention to
a good position.
5.
Mowing along perimeters involves a risk of injury. Mowing near edges, hedges,
or steep inclines is dangerous. Keep a safe distance from perimeters when
mowing.
6.
If the ground is wet the mower could slip due to reduced traction and overturn.
Mow only when the grass is dry.
7.
Work only by daylight or in good artificial lighting.
Injury
1.
Always maintain a safe distance from the rotating tool by means of the steering
handle.
2.
Never place your hands, feet, or other parts of the body near rotating parts.
3.
Stop the motor when the lawnmower has to be tilted and must travel over
surfaces other than grass for transporting.
4.
Never lift or carry the appliance when the motor is running. Remove the mains
plug from the socket before hand.
5.
Switch off the motor and take out the mains plug when you release any jams,
remove blockages in the ejection channel or before checking, cleaning,
transporting, adjusting or working on the lawnmower.
6.
If you remove the grass catcher, you or other persons might get injured due to
ejected, mowed materials or foreign bodies.
7.
Never empty the grass sack while the engine is running. To do this, switch off
the lawnmower.
8.
Check the surface on which the appliance is to be used and remove all objects
that the appliance can take up and filing out.
9.
If a foreign body (e.g. stone) is hit by the cutting blade or if the lawnmower
starts vibrating abnormally: stop the motor immediately and remove the mains
plug. Check the appliance for damage, and have any damage repaired at a
specialized garage.
10. In the case of lawnmowers with rotating blades, never stand in front of the
grass ejection holes.
Tripping over
1.
While turning the machine around you could trip over the mains cable and
injure you. Feed the cable behind you in such a way that it stays out of the path
along which you are walking while mowing, and is kept away from the cutting
blades.
2.
Operate the vehicle at walking speed only.
Caution!
Damage to the machine
1.
Stones, branches or other objects lying around can cause damage to the
lawnmower and its operation. Remove all objects from the appliance's path
before every use.
