tery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack.
Use power tools only with specifically designated bat-
u
tery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
u
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns
or a fire.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
u
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally oc-
curs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addi-
tionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the bat-
tery may cause irritation or burns.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
u
modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excess-
u
ive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above
130°C may cause explosion.
Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
u
battery pack or tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range may damage
the battery and increase the risk of fire.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
u
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Never service damaged battery packs. Service of bat-
u
tery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer
or authorized service providers.
Lawnmower safety warnings
Do not use the lawnmower in bad weather conditions,
u
especially when there is a risk of lightning. This de-
creases the risk of being struck by lightning.
Thoroughly inspect the area for wildlife where the
u
lawnmower is to be used. Wildlife may be injured by the
lawnmower during operation.
Thoroughly inspect the area where the lawnmower is
u
to be used and remove all stones, sticks, wires, bones,
and other foreign objects. Thrown objects can cause
personal injury.
Before using the lawnmower, always visually inspect
u
to see that the blade and the blade assembly are not
worn or damaged. Worn or damaged parts increase the
risk of injury.
Check the grass catcher frequently for wear or deteri-
u
oration. A worn or damaged grass catcher may increase
the risk of personal injury.
Bosch Power Tools
Keep guards in place. Guards must be in working or-
u
der and be properly mounted. A guard that is loose,
damaged, or is not functioning correctly may result in per-
sonal injury.
Keep all cooling air inlets clear of debris. Blocked air
u
inlets and debris may result in overheating or risk of fire.
While operating the lawnmower, always wear non-slip
u
and protective footwear. Do not operate the lawn-
mower when barefoot or wearing open sandals. This
reduces the chance of injury to the feet from contact with
the moving blade.
While operating the lawnmower, always wear long
u
trousers. Exposed skin increases the likelihood of injury
from thrown objects.
Do not operate the lawnmower in wet grass. Walk,
u
never run. This reduces the risk of slipping and falling
which may result in personal injury.
Do not operate the lawnmower on excessively steep
u
slopes. This reduces the risk of loss of control, slipping
and falling which may result in personal injury.
When working on slopes, always be sure of your foot-
u
ing, always work across the face of slopes, never up or
down and exercise extreme caution when changing
direction. This reduces the risk of loss of control, slipping
and falling which may result in personal injury.
Use extreme caution when reversing or pulling the
u
lawnmower towards you. Always be aware of your sur-
roundings. This reduces the risk of tripping during opera-
tion.
Do not touch blades and other hazardous moving parts
u
while they are still in motion. This reduces the risk of in-
jury from moving parts.
When clearing jammed material or cleaning the lawn-
u
mower, make sure all power switches are off and the
battery pack is disconnected. Unexpected operation of
the lawnmower may result in serious personal injury.
Always allow the product to cool down before storing.
u
Empty the grassbox before storing.
u
When adjusting the machine, make sure not to pinch your
u
fingers between the moving blades and fixed parts of the
machine.
Operation
We would advise you to wear ear protection for your own
u
convenience.
Wait until the blades stop if the machine has to be tilted
u
for transportation when crossing surfaces other than
grass and when transporting the machine to and from the
area to be mowed.
Do not tilt the machine when starting or switching on the
u
motor.
Switch on the motor according to the instructions with
u
feet well away from rotating parts.
Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts.
