●

The grass discharge chute is exposed

and is not protected by the grass catcher

and grass discharge chute cover.

●

Hands and feet of all persons are not

clear of the cutting enclosure.

■

Never operate the product if the on/off

switch on the handlebar does not properly

start and stop the product.

■

Never attempt to lock the on/off switches in

the on position; this is extremely dangerous.

■

Do not force the product. It will do the job

better and safer at the speed for which it

was designed.

■

Stop the blade when crossing gravel

surfaces.

■

Do not pull the product backwards unless

absolutely necessary. If you must back the

product away from a wall or obstruction,

first look down and behind to avoid tripping

or pulling the product over your feet.

■

Turn off the motor, and allow the blade

to stop if the product has to be tilted for

transportation, when crossing surfaces

other than grass, and when transporting

the product to and from the work area.

■

Never use the product with defective

guards or shields, or without safety devices,

such as, deflectors and grass collectors, in

place.

■

Do not tilt the product when turning on

the motor or while the motor is running. If

absolutely necessary, you may raise the

front of the lawn mower by no more than

5 cm to enable easier starting. Press down

on the handlebar to achieve this. Always

return the mower to its normal position with

all wheels on the ground before cutting.

Tilting the mower exposes the blade and

increases the probability of objects being

thrown and accidental contact with the

blade.

■

Turn on the motor carefully according to

instructions and keep hands and feet away

from blades. Do not put hands or feet near

or under rotating parts.

■

Never pick up or carry the product while it

is running.

■

Turn off the product, and remove the

isolator key and battery pack. Make sure

that all moving parts have come to a

complete stop:

●

whenever

leaving

unattended (including disposal of grass

clippings)

●

before clearing blockages or unclogging

the discharge chute

●

before checking, cleaning, or working on

the product

●

before removing the grass catcher or

opening the grass discharge chute cover

●

after striking a foreign object (inspect

the product for damage and make

repairs as necessary before restarting

and operating the product)

●

If the product starts to vibrate abnormally

(check immediately)

–

inspect for damage, particularly the

blades

–

replace or repair any damaged parts

–

check for and tighten any loose parts

■

Avoid holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, property

stakes, or other hidden objects. Uneven

terrain could cause a slip-and-fall accident.

■

Always ensure the motor control cable

is never trapped, pinched or otherwise

damaged during assembly or when folding

the handle.
