Safety instructions

fter working
• The throttle should be closed before switching off the engine. If
the engine is equipped with a petrol shut-off valve then this be
closed after mowing has been completed.
• Do not leave the mower in closed areas after switching off -
allow it to cool off in the open air before storing away.
• Never keep the machine with petrol in the tank within a building
in which gasoline vapours may possibly come into contact with
naked flames or sparks. Before leaving the mower remove the
spark plug lead and - if fitted - the starting key.
• Lifting and carrying the mower for transport:
• Never attempt to lift the mower with the engine running - nor with
a hot engine - always remove the spark plug lead before lifting or
carrying.
• When folding the mower handlebars, detach starter rope
and make certain that the control cables are not snagged or
stretched when folding or unfolding.
• lways carry out the engine oil change with the fuel tank empty
and filler cap fitted. The engine should be warmed up prior to
draining the oil to ensure all sludge deposits are drained away
with the oil.
Maintenance
• Regularly examine all fixing bolts and nuts, particularly those of
the cutter bar, for tightness.
• Maintenance and cleaning of the equipment as well as remov-
ing the protection device may only be performed with the engine
stopped and the spark plug lead and - if available - the starting
key, removed.

Note information on the chassis before cleaning and oil change!
• Make certain that all nuts, pins and screws are firmly tightened
and that the unit is in a safe operating condition.
• In order to avoid the risk of fire keep the engine, exhaust, bat-
tery box and the area around the fuel tank free of grass, leaves
or oil.
• If the equipment must be tilted for maintenance work then the
fuel must be completely drained from the tank beforehand.
• Clean the equipment after each use with a hand-brush - not
with water and do not hose down with a high pressure hose
in particular. Make certain to keep the engine cooling fins and
engine cooling air intake clean and free from debris.
• Do not place the equipment in damp areas, near naked flames
or where a spark might ignite petrol vapour.
• If the fuel tank is to be emptied then this should be done out-
doors. Make sure that no fuel is spilled.

especially when handling the blade.
