Handling
1. Do not let the combustion engine run in enclosed areas, as dangerous carbon monoxide
gas can build up.
2. Only mow in broad daylight or in well-lit conditions. If possible, avoid using the equipment
on wet grass.
3. Disengage the auxiliary drive unit and set the
drive lever to the neutral position before you
start the mower.
4. Do not use the equipment on slopes with a
gradient of over 10°.
5. Remember that there is no such thing as a
“safe slope”. Driving on grassy slopes requires particular concentration. To protect yourself against overturning you should:
- Not stop or start off suddenly when you are
driving up or down a slope.
- Engage slowly, leave the engine engaged,
especially when driving downslope.
- Keep to a low speed on slopes and on tight
turns.
- Watch out carefully for mounds, hollows and
other unseen dangers.
- Never mow across the slope unless the
machine construction is designed for the
purpose.
6. Be careful when you tow any loads or if you
use any heavy equipment. Only use approved
tow hitches.
7. Only attach loads that you know you can control.
8. Do not attempt to drive tight turns. Exercise
caution when reversing.
9. Pay special attention to car traffi c if you cross
a street or if you are mowing close by one.
10. Stop the knife before crossing over any areas
other than grass.
11. If you use any attachments, make sure that
this does not cause grass to be thrown in the
direction of people and that no persons are
nearby.
12. Never use machines if protective equipment
is damaged or not fi tted.
13. Do not adjust or overclock the motor speed
settings. Operating the equipment at excessive speed may increase the risk of accidents.
14. Before you leave the driver’s seat:
- Disengage the drive unit for the attachment
and lower it.
- Engage idle mode and apply the locking
brake.
- Switch off the engine and pull out the igniti-
on key.
15. Disengage the drive unit for the attachments,
switch off the engine and pull out the spark
boot plug and the ignition key:
- Before you dislodge any blockages or clogs
in the chute.
- Before carrying out any checks, cleaning or
other work on the machine.
- If you have struck a foreign object. Examine
the machine for signs of damage and carry
out any necessary repairs before restarting
and continuing to work with the machine.
- If the machine begins to experience exceptionally strong vibrations, immediately check it.
16. Disengage the drive units for attachments
whenever you intend to transport the mower
or not use it for any length of time.
17. Switch off the engine and disengage the drive
unit for the attachments:
- Before you refuel.
- Before you remove any grass catching devices.
- Before you change the height setting if this
cannot be done from the user’s position.
18. Close the engine‘s throttle valve when the
machine has run down. When you have fi -
nished mowing with the machine, close the
petrol stopcock if it has one.
Maintenance and storage
1. Make sure that all nuts, bolts and screws are
tightened securely and that the machine is in
safe working condition.
2. Never store the mower (with petrol in the
tank) inside a building in which petrol fumes
could come into contact with open fl ames or
sparks.
3. Allow the engine to cool before you put the
lawn mower in an enclosed area.
4. In order to avoid fi re hazards, keep the engi-
ne, exhaust and the area around the fuel tank
free from grass, leaves and leaking grease
(oil).
5. Routinely check the grass basket for signs of
wear and impaired functionality.
6. For your own safety, replace worn or damaged parts without delay.
7. If the fuel tank needs to be emptied, ensure
that it is done out in the open with a petrol
suction pump (available from DIY stores).
8. Carry out adjustment work on the equipment
with care and avoid jamming your fi ngers bet-
ween the moving blades and rigid parts of the
equipment.
9. Please note that the rotation of one of the blades can cause the other one to rotate as well.

1.3 Safety precautions for batteries
1. Make sure at all times that the batteries are
fi tted with the + and – terminals on the batteries correctly positioned as shown on the
battery.
2. Do not short-circuit the batteries.
3. Do not recharge non-rechargeable batteries.
4. Do not exhaust the battery charge.
5. Do not heat batteries.
6. Do not do any welding or soldering directly on
