SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • Do not cut close to edges, ditches or banks. The machine can suddenly tip over if a wheel goes over the edge of a drop or a ditch, or if a bank gives way. • Do not cut wet grass. It is slippery and the tyres can loose their grip so that the machine slides. - Page 8 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • Avoid overfilling. If fuel has been spilt on the machine wipe it up and wait until it has evapor- ated before starting the engine. If fuel is spilt on clothes, change them. • Be extra careful when handling battery acid. Spilling acid on the skin can cause severe burn injuries.
