- if the lawn mower strikes a foreign body,
examine it for signs of damage and carry out any
necessary repairs before restarting and
continuing to work with the mower. If the lawn

- when you leave the lawn mower.
- before you refuel.

Maintenance and storage
1. Make sure that all nuts, bolts and screws are
tightened securely and that the machine is in
safe working condition.
2. Never store the mower (with petrol in the tank)
inside a building in which petrol fumes could
come into contact with open flames or sparks.
3. Allow the motor to cool before you put the lawn
mower in an enclosed area.
4. In order to avoid fire hazards, keep the engine,
exhaust and the area around the fuel tank free
from grass, leaves and leaking grease (oil).
5. Routinely check the grass basket for signs of
wear and impaired functionality.
6. For your own safety, replace worn or damaged
parts without delay.
7. If the fuel tank should require emptying this
should only be done in the open air using a
petrol suction pump (available from DIY shops).

3. Proper operation

The petrol lawn mower is intended for private use i.e.
for use in home and gardening environments.
Private use of the lawn mower refers an annual
operating time generally not exceeding that of 50
hours, during which time the machine is primarily
used to maintain small-scale, residential lawns and
home/hobby gardens. Public facilities, sporting halls,
and agricultural/forestry applications are excluded.
The operating instructions as supplied by the
manufacturer must be kept and referred to in order to
ensure that the lawn mower is properly used and
maintained. The instructions contain valuable
information on operating, maintenance and servicing
conditions.
Important! Due to the high risk of bodily injury to the
user, the lawn mower may not be used to trim
bushes, hedges or shrubs, to cut scaling vegetation,
planted roofs, or balcony-grown grass, to clean (suck
up) dirt and debris off walkways, or to chop up tree or
hedge clippings. Moreover, the lawn mower may not
be used as a power cultivator to level out high areas
such as molehills.
For safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be used
as a drive unit for other work tools or toolkits of any
kind.
