his safety alert symbol indicates important safety messages. When

Your mower is perfectly safe if used correctly. Failure to observe the
following precautions may result in serious injury.
Read the instructions carefully. Ensure that you are familiar with the con-
trols and the proper use of the equipment. Learn how to stop the mower
quickly in an emergency.
Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these instructions to use
the mower.
Never mow while people, especially children, or pets are nearby.
Keep in mind that the user is responsible for accidents or hazards occur-
ring to other people or their property.
It is recommended that a high sensitivity Residual Current - Operated
Circuit - Breaker (RCCB) with a trip current of not more than 30mA is
installed at the mains power socket. This will provide the user with addi-
tional protection against electric shock. The fuse installed in the plug only
provides protection for the electrical equipment and will not safeguard
against electrocution. Always check the RCCB before using the mower.
WARNING: Regularly inspect the supply cable for signs of damage or
ageing. Replace immediately if defective.
Always wear substantial footwear and long trousers while mowing. Do
not operate the equipment when barefoot or wearing sandals.
Thoroughly inspect the area where the mower is to be used and remove all
stones, sticks, wires, bones and other foreign objects.
