Work safety
•
Make sure nobody else is in the vicinity of the machine
when you start it, engage the drive, or run the machine.
•
Clear the area of objects such as stones, toys, wires, etc.
that may become caught in the blades and be thrown out.
•
Never carry passengers. The machine is only intended to
be used by one person.
•
Always look downwards and backwards before and while
reversing. Keep watch for both large and small obstacles.
•
Slow before cornering.
•
Turn off the cutting unit when not mowing.
•
Take care when rounding a fixed object, so that the blades
do not hit it. Never run the machine over foreign objects.
•
Serious accidents may occur if you fail to be on your guard
for children in the vicinity of the machine. Children are
often attracted to the machine and mowing. Never
assume that children will remain where you last saw them.
•
Before and during reversing procedures, look behind you
and down for small children.
•
Only use the machine in daylight or in other well-lit
conditions. Keep the machine at a safe distance from
holes or other irregularities in the ground. Pay attention to
other possible risks.
•
Never use the machine if you are tired, if you have
consumed alcohol, if you are taking other drugs or
medication that can affect your vision, judgement or co-
ordination.
•
Keep an eye on the traffic when working close to a road or
when crossing it.
•
Driving on slopes is one of the operations where the risk
of the driver losing control of the machine or of it
overturning is the greatest; this can result in serious injury
or death. All slopes demand extra care. If you cannot
reverse up a slope or if you feel unsure, do not mow it.
