Power tool use and care
•
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
•
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
•
Disconnect the plug from the power source before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
•
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
•
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool's
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
•
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
•
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.,
in accordance with these instructions and in the
manner intended for the particular type of power
tool, taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool
for operations different from intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
•
personnel using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
Additional safety rules for hover mowers
•
Only use this Lawn Mower when a Residual Current
Device (RCD) with a tripping current of not more than
30mA is in the circuit.
•
If an extension cord is used make sure it is for outdoor
use and marked as such. The recommended size of
extension cord is not lighter than 1.5mm
maximum of 10 metres in length.
•
Completely uncoil your extension cable before use
to prevent overheating and loss of mower efficiency.
When tidying away the cable, wind it carefully to avoid
kinking.
Warning.
After switching off the machine, the cutting
blade continues to rotate for a few more seconds.
•
Frequently inspect the condition of the cutting blades.
Damaged blades must be replaced immediately. Blunt
blades should be sharpened. Follow all the required
precautions when replacing the blades.
•
Damaged blades and worn bolts are major hazards.
•
Before use check the supply and extension cord for
signs of damage or ageing. If the cord becomes
damaged during use, disconnect the cord from the
supply immediately. DO NOT TOUCH THE CORD BEFORE
DISCONNECTING THE SUPPLY.
•
Do not use the appliance if the cord is damaged or worn.
•
Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with the
controls and proper use of the equipment.
•
Keep extension cord away from cutting blades.
•
Never operate the lawn mower while barefoot or wearing
open sandals or thongs. Wear long trousers and heavy
shoes.
•
Never allow children, infirm people or people unfamiliar
with these instructions to use the hover collect mower.
