Qualcast rm32 Instruction Manual page 7

► Always wear strong, anti-slip footwear and long trousers when using the
mower. Never mow in bare feet or in open-toed sandals.
► Always use the lawn mower with the grass collector attached or with the
safety flap closed if you are not using the grass collector.
► Do not lift the lawn mower when you start the motor.
► Never reach into rotating parts with your hands or feet. Always keep away
from the discharge opening.
► Before you attach or empty the grass collector, switch off the motor and
wait until the blade has come to a standstill.
► The safety distance from the moving blade produced by the push handle
must be maintained at all times.
► If you use the mower on a slope, mow across the slope (not in an up and
down direction). Always be sure of your footing on slopes.
► Do not use the lawn mower on gradients of over 15 degree.
► Before you lift the lawn mower to transport it, switch off the motor,
disconnect the mains lead and wait until the blade has come to a
standstill.
► When the mower is working ensure that nobody, particularly children and
animals, is in the immediate vicinity of the lawn mower. Ensure that you
keep everybody 10 meters away from the mower when it is working.
► Keep the lawn mower in a dry place which is inaccessible to children.
► Repair work on the electrical parts of the lawn mower may only be carried
out by an electrician.
► Extension cables must comply to H07RN-F requirements as described in
DIN 57 282/VDE 0282 and must have a minimum cross-section of 1.5
2
mm . The plug must have an earth and any connection must be
splashproof. Before use check the cables for signs of damage and ageing.
Never use the mower if the cables are not in perfect condition (this also
applies to the motor supply cable on the mower). If the cable is damaged
whilst the mower is working, disconnect the mains plug from the power
supply immediately and then check the extent of the damage.
► When you start the motor, the lawn mower must not be tilted unless the
grass is particularly long. In this case only tilt it up as far as is really
necessary and only raise the side that is furthest away from the user.
