Special directions

The fuel used in the ride-on mower has the
following hazardous properties:
• The fluid and its vapor are toxic.
• Can cause eye and skin irritation.
• Can cause breathing problems.
• Is highly flammable.
When using compressed air, do not direct the jet
toward your body. Air can penetrate into the blood
circulation, which means mortal danger.
Use eye protection when working on tensioned
springs.
Use hearing protection during testing.
During testing, do not touch the muffler before it
has cooled down due to the risk of burns. This is
especially true if the ride-on mower is equipped
with a catalytic converter. The lining on and in the
catalytic converter element is toxic for
consumption. Use protective gloves when working
on the catalytic converter/muffler.

Waste oil and used oil filters shall be
handled as environmentally hazardous
waste.
