able accident-prevention devices to guar-
antee your safety.
5) Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.
6) Do not let the vacuum tube suck up the
electric cord. Use the cable clamp to pre-
vent the extension lead from disconnecting
accidentally. Make sure it is connected to
the socket without being forced. Never
touch a live electric cable if it is poorly in-
sulated. If the extension lead gets damaged
during use, do not touch the cable and un-
plug the extension lead immediately.
7) Stop the motor and unplug the machine
from the mains:
– whenever you leave the machine unat-
tended;
– before cleaning, checking or working
on the machine;
– if the machine starts to vibrate abnor-
mally: find the cause of the vibration
immediately and have it inspected at a
Specialised Centre;
– when the machine is not in use.
• Fasten the snap hook on the support strap (1) to

WARNING!
chine must always be firmly held in both
hands, with the left hand on the upper hand-
grip and the right hand on the handgrip incor-
porated in the vacuum tube, so that the bag is
on the operator's right.
When used as a vacuum collector, it is best to use
the motor at average/high speed.
During collection, keep the rounded end of the tu-
be a few centimetres off the ground.
The bag also works as a filter similar to a common
home vacuum. For this reason it is best that:
– it is always free to expand and the support strap
not tangled;
– it is not fully filled;
– collected objects that could jeopardise integrity
are promptly removed.
To empty the bag:
– switch the motor off;
– unfasten the bag from the tube and power unit;
– open the zipper (1) and empty the bag.
