Working on banks can be dangerous.
– Do not mow excessively steep slopes.
– Always be sure of your footing on slopes or
wet grass.
– Mow across the face of slopes – never up
and down.
– Exercise extreme caution when changing di-
rection on slopes.
Use extreme caution when stepping back or
pulling the machine towards you.
Never mow by pulling the mower towards you.
Stop the blades if the machine has to be tilt-
ed 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 motor, except if the machine
has to be tilted for starting in long grass. In
this case, do not tilt if more than absolutely
necessary and tilt only the part which is away
from the operator. Always ensure that both
hands are in the operating position before re-
turning the machine to the ground.
Switch on the motor according to the instruc-
tions with feet well away from rotating parts.
Do not put hands or feet near or under rotat-
ing parts.
Always stand clear of the discharge zone
when operating the machine.
Never pick up or carry the machine while the
motor is running.
Do not modify this product. Unauthorized
modifications may impair the safety of your
product and may result in increased noise
and vibration.
Remove the isolator key:
– whenever you leave the machine,
– before clearing a blockage,
– before checking, cleaning or working on the
machine,
– after striking a foreign object. Inspect the
machine for damage and make repairs as
necessary,
– if the machine starts to vibrate abnormally
(check immediately).
Bosch Power Tools
Maintenance
Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure
that the machine is in safe working condition.
Check the grass catcher frequently for wear
or deterioration.
Examine the machine and replace worn or
damaged parts for safety.
Ensure replacement cutting means of the
right type are used.
Ensure replacement parts fitted are Bosch
approved.
Always wear gardening gloves when handling
or working near the sharp blades.
Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the
Battery
Ensure the switch is in the off position be-
fore inserting battery pack. Inserting the
battery pack into machines that have the
switch on invites accidents.
Keep the battery charger away from rain or
moisture. Penetration of water in the battery
charger increases the risk of an electric shock.
Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable
for one type of battery pack may create a risk
of fire when used with another battery pack.
Do not charge other batteries. The battery
charger is suitable only for charging Bosch
lithium ion batteries within the listed voltage
range. Otherwise there is danger of fire and
explosion.
Keep the battery charger clean. Contamina-
tion can lead to danger of an electric shock.
Before each use, check the battery charger,
cable and plug. If damage is detected, do
not use the battery charger. Never open the
battery charger yourself. Have repairs per-
formed only by a qualified technician and
only using original spare parts. Damaged
battery chargers, cables and plugs increase
the risk of an electric shock.
Do not operate the battery charger on easi-
ly inflammable surfaces (e. g., paper, tex-
tiles, etc.) or surroundings. The heating of
the battery charger during the charging proc-
ess can pose a fire hazard.
