Use caution during operation

Danger of injury during motor start
Do not start the engine
– if fuel was spilled.
– in closed or poorly ventilated rooms (danger
of poisoning!).
– if there are other persons nearby.
Start the device only when your feet are at a
safe distance to the blade.
When the engine is started, do not tilt the
device.
Risk of injury when the motor is running
Switch off the engine and wait until the blade
stops
– before you tilt or transport the device.
– before you step away from the device, even
for just a short time.
– when you drive on surfaces other than
grass.
– before you adjust the cutting height.
– before you refuel.
Switch off the engine and wait until the blade
comes to a standstill, and pull off the spark
plug connector
– before you clean or check the device or be-
fore you carry out work on the device.
– before you unblock or unclog the discharge
area.
Risk of burns
Do not touch the engine or the silencer. These
parts become very hot during operation and
you can get burned. If a jumpy movement oc-
curs, the risk of additional injuries can result.

Prior to mowing

Personal protective measures
During mowing, always wear
safety shoes with good grip and
long trousers. Do not mow with
open sandals or while shoeless.
Wear safety gloves to protect
yourself against injuries and vi-
brations.
Noise is causing health prob-
lems. Use personal ear protec-
tion to avoid hearing damage.
Wear safety glasses and
headgear.
Ask your specialised dealer about suitable pro-
tective equipment.
Preparing the mowing area
Prior to mowing, carefully check the perimeter
of the lawn. Remove rocks, pieces of wood,
bones, wires, and other objects that could be
picked up and thrown out by the device.

Use caution when mowing

Risk of injury
Risk of injury caused by ejected objects. Never
mow when persons, children, pets or material
assets are in the danger area.
Keep your hands and feet away from the rotat-
ing parts. Keep a distance to the ejection area
while working with the device.
Make sure that help can be provided in case of
an emergency.
Only mow during daylight or with adequate arti-
ficial lighting. Never mow in the event of uncer-
tain weather conditions and risk of lightning.
Be especially carefully when mowing on soft
ground, nearby landfills, ditches, dikes and wa-
ter edges.
