2.4 MAINTENANCE, STORAGE
Ensure regular maintenance and correct storage to maintain
machine safety and high performance levels.
Maintenance
• Never use the machine with worn or damaged parts. Faulty
or worn-out parts must always be replaced and never
repaired.
• Be careful during adjustment of the machine to prevent
entrapment of the fingers between moving parts of the
cutting means and fixed parts of the machine.
The noise and vibration levels shown in these
instructions are the maximum levels for use of the ma-
chine. The use of an unbalanced cutting element, the
excessive speed of movement, or the absence of main-
tenance have a significant influence on noise emissions
and vibrations. Consequently, it is necessary to take
preventive steps to eliminate possible damage due to
high levels of noise and stress from vibration. Maintain
the machine well, wear ear protection devices, and take
breaks while working.
Storage
• To reduce fire risks, do not leave containers with debris
inside a room.
2.5 BATTERY / BATTERY CHARGER
The following safety instructions are in
IMPORTANT
addition to the safety requirements provided in the specific
battery and battery charger manual delivered with this
machine.
• Only use battery chargers recommended by the
manufacturer to recharge batteries. An inadequate battery
charger may cause electric shock, overheating or corrosive
liquid to leak from the battery
• Use only batteries specifically designed for your power tool.
The use of other batteries may cause injuries and fire risks.
• Make sure that the machine is switched off before inserting
the battery. Inserting a battery in a machine which is
switched on can cause a fire.
• Keep all unused batteries at a distance from paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects
as contact with the same can cause short circuits. Short
circuits between battery contacts can lead to explosion or
fires.
• Never use the battery charger in environments in the
presence of vapours, flammable substances or on easily
flammable surfaces such as paper, fabric, etc. The battery
charger heats up during recharging and may cause a fire.
• When transporting accumulators, make sure the contacts
never come into contact with each other and never use
metal containers to transport them.
2.6 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Safeguarding the environment must be a relevant and priority
aspect of machine use, of benefit to the community and the
environment we live in.
• Avoid being a disturbance to the neighbourhood. Use
this machine at reasonable times of the day only (not
early morning or late evening when the noise could cause
disturbance).
• 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 dispose of electrical equipment with house-
hold waste material. In observance of European
Directive 2012/19/EU on electrical and electronic
equipment waste and its implementation, in obser-
vance of UK Regulation "The waste electrical and
electronic equipment regulations 2013 (as amended)" and
in accordance with national regulations, electrical equip-
ment that has reached the end of its product life must be
collected separately and recycled in an ecologically compat-
ible way. If electrical equipment is disposed of in dumps or
in landfills, hazardous substances can leak into the ground-
water 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.
3. 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 an motor which
drives a cutting means enclosed in a casing, equipped with
wheels and a handle.
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.
