• The machine should only be operated by persons who are well informed with the
way it works, and who are in reasonably good physical condition.
• It can be dangerous to mow the grass when it is wet. Try to ensure that you only
mow the grass when it is dry.
• Advise children and others to keep well away from the lawn mower.
• Never mow the grass in poor visibility.
• Remove all loose objects from the lawn before you start mowing the grass.
Tips for proper mowing
m CAUTION! Never open the chute flap when the grass catcher has been de-
tached (to be emptied) and the engine is still running. The rotating blade can
cause serious injuries!
Always carefully fasten the chute flap and grass catcher. Switch off the engine before
emptying the grass catcher.
Always ensure that a safe distance (provided by the length of the long handles) is
maintained between the user and the mower housing. Be especially careful when
mowing and changing direction on slopes and inclines. Maintain a solid footing and
wear sturdy, non-slip footwear and long trousers. Always mow along the incline (not
up and down).
For safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be used to mow inclines whose gradient
exceeds 15 degrees.
Use special caution when backing up and pulling the lawn mower. Tripping hazard!
Mowing
Only use a sharp blade that is in good condition. This will prevent the grass blades
from fraying and the lawn from turning yellow. Try to mow in straight lines for a nice,
clean look. The mowing swaths should always overlap each other by a few centime-
ters in order to avoid bare strips.
Keep the underside of the mower housing clean and remove grass build-up. Deposits
not only make it more difficult to start the mower; they decrease the quality of the cut
and make it harder for the machine to bag the grass. Always mow along inclines (not
up and down). Slightly turning the front wheels up the hill while mowing will prevent the
mower from sliding out of the straight line. Select the cutting height according to the
length of the grass. If the lawn has grown quite a bit, mow over it several times so that
no more than 4 cm of grass are cut at one time. Switch off the engine before doing any
checks on the blade. Keep in mind that the blade continues to rotate for a few seconds
after the engine has been switched off. Never attempt to manually stop the blade.
