In the event of an emergency, switch off
the motor immediately by releasing the
switch lever and remove the fuse key

WARNING
The cutting blade continues to rotate for
a short period after the switch lever is
released. This is known as the flywheel
effect.

The rotating cutting blade may throw
foreign objects directly or by ricochet.
Keep bystanders, especially children,
and animals away from the work area.

approached.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury:
Operate the mower at walking pace only
– never run.
Do not use the mower for transporting
persons, particularly children, or objects.
Do not attach objects to the handle.
WARNING
During cutting, check the tightness and
the condition of the cutting blade at
regular short intervals with the motor
and blade stopped and the fuse key and
battery removed. If the behavior of the
blade changes during use, switch off the
motor immediately, wait until the cutting
blade stops, remove the fuse key and
battery and check the screw securing
the blade for tightness and the blade for
cracks, wear and damage. Never
examine the cutting blade while the
motor is running. To avoid the risk of
injury from the rotating cutting blade,
never open the rear discharge cover or
remove the grass bag while the motor is
running.
If the machine should start to vibrate
abnormally, stop the motor, remove the
fuse key and battery and check for the
cause immediately. Vibration is
generally a warning of trouble. Do not re-
start the motor until the cause of the
abnormal vibration is identified and
resolved.
WARNING
If the cutting blade becomes obstructed,
or if there is a blockage in the rear or
side discharge chutes or in the area of
the cutting blade, always switch off the
motor, remove the fuse key and battery
and make sure the cutting blade has
stopped before cleaning.
In the event of contact with foreign
matter, check the cutting blade for signs
of damage. Do not operate your mower
with a damaged or bent blade shaft or
motor shaft.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of unintentional
rotation of the cutting blade and severe
personal injury or death, always switch
off the motor and remove fuse key and
battery before replacing the cutting
blade. Always switch off the motor by
releasing the switch lever before
adjusting the cutting height.
DANGER
Do not rely on the
mower's insulation
against electric shock. To
reduce the risk of electro-
cution or electric shock,
never contact electrical
cables or wires or oper-
ate this mower in the
vicinity of any wires or
cables which may be car-
rying electric current.
