■ Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
■ Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
■ Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
■ 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.
■ Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery 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
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
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from
the battery may cause irritation or burns.
■ Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
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
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature
above 130°C may cause explosion.
■ Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the 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
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 battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorised service providers.

Original Instructions
■ Follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper
operation and installation of accessories. Use only
accessories approved by the manufacturer. The use of
other accessories may increase the risk of injury.
■ Never interfere with the intended function of a safety
device or reduce the protection provided by a safety
device. Check the proper operation of the safety devices
regularly.
■ Never use the product while people, especially children,
or pets are within 15 m because of the danger of objects
being thrown by contact with the blade.
■ Do not use the product when there is a risk of lightning.
■ Do not operate the product in poor lighting. The operator
requires a clear view of the work area to identify potential
hazards.
■ Be familiar with the controls and the correct use of the
product.
■ Be aware of possible hazards when not using the
product or when changing accessories. Following this
rule reduces the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious
personal injury.
■ Never carry passengers or children, even when the
blades have stopped. They may fall off and be seriously
injured or interfere with the safe operation of the product.
Children who have been given rides in the past may
suddenly appear in the mowing area for another ride and
be run over or backed over by the product.
■ Never allow children or people with reduced physical,
sensory, or mental capabilities, or persons who are
unfamiliar with these instructions to operate, clean, or
maintain the product. Local regulations may restrict the age
of the operator. Children should be adequately supervised
to ensure that they do not play with the product.
■ Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for
accidents or hazards occurring to other people or their
property.
■ Keep hands and feet away from the cutting area, which
is located under the mower deck and inside the side
discharge chute. Keep clear of the side discharge chute
opening at all times. Do not reach under the mower
deck.
PREPARATION
■ Wear heavy, long trousers, long sleeves, and sturdy,
anti-slip footwear. Do not wear short trousers, sandals,
or go barefoot. Avoid wearing clothing that is loose-fitting
or that has hanging cords or ties.
■ Always wear safety glasses with side shields. Use a face
mask if operation is dusty.
■ Objects struck by the blade can cause severe injuries to
persons. Thoroughly inspect the area where the product
is to be used, and remove all rocks, sticks, metal, wire,
bones, toys, or other foreign objects. Remember, string
or wire may entangle with the blades.
■ Before use, always visually inspect the product to ensure
that blades, blade nuts, and the cutter assembly are not
worn or damaged.
■ Never direct discharged material towards anyone.
Plan the mowing pattern to avoid discharge of material
towards bystanders, roads, sidewalks, windows, and
cars. Avoid discharging material against a wall or
obstruction, which may cause the material to ricochet
back towards the operator.
