Safety Information
Important - Please read these instructions fully before starting assembly
Personal Safety (continued)
•
Never run the mower in enclosed or poorly ventilated rooms or if there are inflammable or
explosive fluids, vapours or gases nearby.
•
Switch off the motor and disconnect the mains lead before clearing blockages in the grass ejection
area and before you inspect it if the mower has struck a foreign body.
•
Always use the lawn mower with the grass collector correctly fitted.
•
Check the site on which you intend to use the lawn mower and remove all objects that may be
caught or thrown up by the mower. Foreign bodies must be removed before you start mowing.
Keep an eye of the power cable and keep it away from the cutting blade at all times.
•
Ensure that you do not push the mower over areas that might damage or snare the power cable.
•
Never lift the lawn mower when you start the motor.
•
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 complete standstill.
•
When you start the motor, the lawn mower should 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.
•
Never reach towards rotating parts with your hands or feet. Always keep
discharge chute.
•
Before you attach or empty the grass collector, switch off the motor and wait until the blade has
come to a complete standstill.
•
Make sure you keep your feet at a safe distance from the mower blade at all times! Do not stand
near the grass ejection chute if the grass collector is not fitted.
•
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 small incline, mow across the slope (not in an up and down direction).
Always be sure of your footing on slopes.
•
Be particularly careful when changing direction with the mower whilst working on a slope.
•
Do not use the lawn mower on gradients of over 15 degree.
•
Ensure that you have safe footing at all times whilst working with the mower.
•
Always wear strong, anti-slip footwear and long trousers when using the mower. Never mow in
bare feet or in open-toed sandals.
•
When the mower is running ensure that no person or pet, particularly children and animals, is in
the immediate vicinity of the lawn mower. Ensure that you keep everybody at least 10meters away
from the mower when it is working.
•
Switch off the motor and disconnect the plug from the power supply if the mower strikes a foreign
body. Check the mower for signs of damage and carry out all necessary repair work before you
start the mower again.
