Safety information
Prior to use
¾ Before you begin work, make sure that you
are familiar with the device, its controls and
how to operate it.
¾ Check whether all fixing elements (nuts, bolts
and screws, etc.) are tightly fit to ensure that
the device is operated safely.
¾ Only operate the device in a technically
faultless state. Never change the engine
settings pre-configured in the factory. Have
damage repaired by a qualified technician or
service centre.
¾ Remove the adjustment tool or wrench before
switching on the device. A tool located in the
rotating cutting tools area may lead to injuries.
¾ Never use a device with defective, damaged
or missing safety/protective equipment.
Safety/protective equipment are a component
of the device, are there fore your protection and
must always be functioning. You must not modify
safety/protective devices, remove them or bypass
their function. Have damaged safety/protective
devices repaired or, if necessary, replaced by a
technician or service centre.
¾ Check the discharge flap for damage and tight
fitting.
¾ Before mowing, make sure that the lawn is
free of branches, stones and wire and look
out for these things during the entire mowing
process. Items may be seized and flung out.
¾ Check (by means of visual inspection)
whether the cutting blades and their fixings
are blunt, damaged or deformed.
¾ Connect trailers or attachment devices
carefully. Driving performance, especially
steering, braking capability, and overall stability
are affected by attachments, towed items, ballast
weights and the weight of a grass catcher when
full.
Safety information
During use
¾ Do not mow lawns which have grass blades
longer than 25 cm.
¾ Drive carefully. Reduce your speed before
turning.
¾ Do not use the device in potentially explosive
atmospheres containing flammable liquids,
gases or dusts. The tool can generate sparks
which could ignite dust or vapours. Prevent
naked flames, formation of sparks, and do not
smoke.
¾ Pay particular attention when you are mowing
or driving in reverse. To prevent accidents,
drive slowly and glance at the ground behind you
as you do so.
¾ Adjust the cutting height only with the
engine switched off and the cutting tool at a
standstill.
¾ Never open the discharge flap while the
engine is still running.
¾ Never drive over gravel or footpaths with the
cutters running. There is a risk of stone chips.
¾ Do not mow over overgrown, dry grass (e.g.
pasture grass) or over dry heaps of leaves.
Do not park the device on dry grass or leaves.
Risk of fire from contact with hot exhausts and
when dry grass or leaves gather on the hot
mower.
¾ Watch out for traffic when working on roads
or when crossing a road. The device is not
designed for use on public roads.
¾ Never empty the grass catcher while the
cutters are running. While emptying the grass
catcher attachment, you or other persons may be
injured by cut grass and objects being flung out.
¾ Take extra care with opening and closing the
grass catcher; there is a risk of crushing.
¾ When mowing close to lawn edges (e.g. close
to particularly steep slopes, pits, or under
trees, and by bushes and hedges), maintain a
safe distance at all times.
¾ If the cutters come into contact with a foreign
body (e.g. a stone), or if the device starts
to vibrate unusually, switch the engine off
immediately. Check the device for damage
before continuing operation. If necessary, take it
to a service centre.
