Handling
• Make sure that all nuts, pins and screws are securely tight-
ened so that the device is kept in a safe working condition.
• Never store the machine with petrol in the tank inside a
building in which fuel vapours may come into contact with
naked flames or sparks.
• Allow the engine to cool before storing the machine in en-
closed spaces.
• In order to avoid fire hazards, keep the engine, exhaust
pipe and the area around the fuel tank free of grass, leaves
and leaking grease (oil).
• Regularly check the catch basket for signs of wear and loss
of functionality.
• For safety reasons, replace worn or damaged parts.
• If the fuel tank has to be drained, you must do this outdoors.
• Do not run the combustion engine in closed rooms in which
hazardous carbon monoxide can collect.
• Only mow in daylight or with good artificial lighting.
• Avoid using the device on wet grass as far as possible.
• Do not use the lawnmower in a thunderstorm - risk of
lightning strike!
• Always maintain good footing on inclines.
• Only guide the machine at walking pace.
• The following applies to wheeled machines: Always mow
across hills i.e. never straight up or straight down. Take par-
ticular care when changing direction on a slope.
• Do not mow on excessively steep slopes and nearby rub-
bish tips, ditches and dykes. Take particular care when re-
versing the lawnmower or pulling it towards you.
• Stop the blade when the lawnmower has to be tilted, when
transporting over areas other than grass and when moving
the lawnmower to and from the area to be mowed.
• Caution! The lawnmower must not be used without either
the full grass catcher or the self-closing separating guard for
the ejection opening in place.
• Never use the lawnmower if the blade or safety grilles are
damaged, or without the attached guards, e.g. deflectors
and/or grass catching devices.
• Do not adjust and overclock the engine speed settings.
• Release the engine brake and disengage all cutting tools
and drives before starting the engine.
• Start the engine with care, in accordance with the manu-
facturers instructions. Ensure that your feet are far enough
away from the blade.
• Do not tilt the lawnmower when you start the engine unless
the lawnmower must raised off of the ground a little in order
to start it. In this case, only tilt as far as absolutely required
and only lift the side away from the operator.
• Do not start the engine if you are standing in front of the
ejector chute.
• Never out hands and feet on or under rotating parts. Al-
ways keep clear of the ejection opening.
• Never lift or carry a lawnmower while the engine is running.
• Stop the engine and make sure that all moving parts have
come to a standstill and that the ignition key, if present, is
removed:
- Before you dislodge any blockages or clogs in the ejec-
tor chute.
- Before checking or cleaning the lawnmower or perform-
ing work on it.

- If it came into contact with a foreign object. Inspect the
lawnmower for damage and perform the required re-
pairs before starting again and working with the lawn-
mower. If the lawnmower begins to experience excep-
tionally strong vibrations, immediately switch it off and
check it.
- Any time you leave the lawnmower.
- Before you refuel.
• When the engine runs out, close the throttle valve. If the
engine has a petrol shut-off valve, close it after mowing.
• Operating the machine with excessive speed can increase
the risk of accidents.
• Be careful when adjusting the device and avoid trapping
fingers between the moving blade and rigid parts of the
device.
• Be particularly careful when mowing on yielding ground, near-
by rubbish tips, ditches and dykes.
• Avoid mowing in places where the wheels have trouble
gripping or mowing is unsafe in any other way.
• Watch out for traffic near a road.
• Exercise particular caution when moving backwards and
pulling the lawnmower.
Risk of tripping! Before reversing, make sure there are
no small children behind you.
• The user must be adequately trained in the use, adjustment
and operation of the machine (including prohibited opera-
tions).
• Check the device regularly and make sure that all start locks
and push buttons are working properly before each use.
• Please note that improper maintenance, the use of non-com-
pliant spare parts, or the removal or modification of safety
devices can result in damage to the device and serious in-
jury to the person working with it.
• Please note that the lawnmower's safety systems or equip-
ment must not be tampered with or deactivated. Never re-
move any safety-related parts.
• Please note that the user must not change or manipulate any
sealed engine speed control settings.
• Use only blades and accessories recommended by the
manufacturer. Use of other tools and accessories may result
in injury to the user.
• Always keep the lawnmower in good operating condition.
• It is necessary to take enough breaks to reduce noise and
vibration exposure.
