the mower is to be used and move any
object which may jam or be thrown by the
machine.
•Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust and fumes.
•Keep children, bystanders, and pets
away while operating the power tool,
distractions can cause you to lose control.
•Not to be used as a toy. Not to be used
near children.
•Never allow children or people unfamiliar
with these instructions to use the power
tool. Local regulations may restrict the age

•Take extreme caution when changing
direction on slopes.
•Avoid operating the mower in wet grass
where possible.
Electrical safety:
•Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way.
•Do not use any adaptor plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodied plugs and matching outlets
will reduce the risk of electric shock.
•Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There
is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed or grounded.
•Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
•Do not abuse the charger cord. Never
use the charger cord for carrying the
charger, or pulling and unplugging the

use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
•If the cord becomes damaged during use

immediately- do not touch the cable
before disconnecting.
•Before use check the power supply and
charger cables for signs of damage or
ageing.
