ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

• Scrupulously comply with local regulations for the disposal
of packaging, deteriorated parts or any elements with
a strong environmental impact; this waste must not be
disposed of as normal waste, it must be separated and
taken to specified waste disposal centres where the
material will be recycled.
• Scrupulously comply with local regulations for the disposal
of waste materials.
• When the machine is withdrawn from service, do not
dispose of it in the environment, but take it to a waste
disposal facility in accordance with the local regulations in
force.
Do not throw electrical equipment away with
domestic waste. According to the European
Directive 2012/19/EU on electrical and electronic
equipment waste
according to UK regulation "The waste electrical
and electronic equipment regulations 2013 (as amended)" in
compliance with national standards, old electrical equipment
must be collected separately, for eco-compatible recycling. If
electrical equipment is disposed of in dumps or in landfills,
hazardous substances can leak into the groundwater and
contaminate the food chain, damaging your health and well-
being. For further information on the disposal of this product,
contact your dealer or a domestic waste collection service.
At the end of their working life, dispose
of batteries paying due attention to the
environment. Batteries contain material classified
as hazardous for you and the environment. They
must be removed and disposed of separately at a
facility that accepts lithium-ion batteries.
Separate waste collection of the products
and packaging used allows the materials to
be recycled and reused. Reuse of recycled
materials help to prevent environmental pollution
and reduces the demand for raw materials.

GETTING TO KNOW THE MACHINE

3.1 DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE
AND PLANNED USE
This machine is pedestrian controlled lawnmower.
The machine is essentially composed of a motor which drives
a cutting means enclosed in a casing equipped with a handle.
Once switched on, the motor creates an air cushion that holds
the machine in a suspended position so that it doesn't create
friction with the ground.
The operator is able to operate the machine and use the main
controls, always staying behind the handle at a safe distance
from the rotating cutting means.
If the operator leaves the machine, the motor and cutting
means will stop within a few seconds.
3.1.1

Intended use

This machine was designed and manufactured for cutting
grass in gardens and grassy areas, to be carried out by a
pedestrian operator.
3.1.2

Improper use

Any other usage may be hazardous and
harm persons and/or damage things.
and its implementation,
Examples of improper use may include, but are not limited to:
– Allowing children, animals or other passengers to
ride on the machine as they could fall off and injure
themselves or compromise safe driving by the operator;
– Letting oneself be transported by the machine.
– Using the machine to tow or push loads.
– Using the cutting means on surfaces other than grass.
– Using of the machine for leaf or debris collection.
– Using the machine to trim hedges, or for
cutting vegetation other than grass.
– Use of the machine by more than one person.
IMPORTANT Improper use of the machine will
invalidate the warranty, relieve the Manufacturer from
all liabilities, and the user will consequently be liable
for all and any damage or injury to himself or others.
3.1.3 User types
This machine is intended for use by consumers,
i.e. non-professional operators.
It is intended for "DIY" use only.
IMPORTANT The machine must be used by one operator.
