should strike buried obstacles such as large rocks or roots.
• Do not operate the machine in confined areas where there may be a risk of crushing the
operator between the machine and another object.
• Walk, never run with the machine. Be very careful when pulling the machine toward you. You
must look behind you to make sure there are no obstacles before and during operations in
reverse gear (if applicable). Do not allow the machine to pull you along.
• WARNING! If something breaks or an accident happens whilst working, you must turn off the
engine immediately and move the machine away to prevent further damage. If an accident

be seen.

well, wear ear protection and take breaks from working.

inspect the machine thoroughly for damage. Repair the damage before continuing.
