To ensure safe operation
Thrown Object Hazard
Objects hit by the rotating cutting means can be thrown from the mower with
great force, and may cause serious injury.
• Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to be used and remove
all objects which may be thrown by the machine (stones, branches, wires,
bones, etc...).
• Always inspect the mower for damage after striking a foreign object.
Repair or replace any damaged parts before continued use.
• Pieces thrown from a worn or damaged cutting means can cause serious
injury. Always inspect the cutting means before using the mower.
Fire and Burn Hazard
Gasoline is extremely flammable, and gasoline vapor can explode.
Use extreme care when handling gasoline. Keep gasoline out of reach of
children.
• Store fuel in containers specifically designed for this purpose.
• Refuel outdoors only, and do not smoke while refuelling or handling fuel.
• Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the cap of the fuel tank or
add petrol while the engine is running or when the engine is hot.
• If gasoline is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine but move the machine
away from the area of spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition until
gasoline vapors have dissipated.
• Tighten all fuel tanks and container caps securely.
