SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Safety Alert Symbol
This safety alert symbol indicates important safety messages. When
you see this symbol be alert to the possibility of injury. Carefully read
the following and inform others.
Your mower is perfectly safe if used correctly. Failure to observe the
following precautions may result in serious injury.
Training
Before using the mower read the owners handbook carefully. Pay particular attention to the safety precautions. Ensure that you are familiar
with the controls 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
occurring to other people or their property.
1.8
Preparation
While mowing, always wear substantial footwear and long trousers.
Do not operate the equipment when barefoot or wearing sandals.
Thoroughly inspect the area where the mower is to be used and remove
all objects which may be thrown by the machine.
WARNING: Petrol is highly flammable.
- Store fuel in containers specifically designed for this purpose.
- Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the cap from the
fuel tank or add petrol while the engine is running or when the engine
is hot. Allow the engine to cool for at least two minutes before refuelling.
- Do not attempt to start the engine if petrol is spilled or a smell of
petrol is present. Move the mower away from the area of spillage
and avoid creating any source of ignition until petrol vapours have
dissipated.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Preparation
- Always use fresh fuel. Stale fuel can block the carburettor and cause
leakage.
- Replace fuel tank and oil tank caps securely.
A damaged cutterblade or loose fixing bolt are major hazards. Before
use, always visually inspect the cutting mechanism to ensure that it is
in good condition. A damaged cutterblade must be replaced immediately with a genuine Hayter replacement part
Operation
Do not operate the engine in a confined space where exhaust fumes
(carbon monoxide) can collect. Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke
while refuelling.
Always pull the starter cord slowly until resistance is felt. Then pull
the cord rapidly to avoid kickback and prevent hand or arm injury.
Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.
Avoid using the mower on wet grass, where feasible.
Always be sure of your footing on slopes.
Walk, never run.
Mow across the face of slopes, never up and down.
Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on slopes.
Do not mow excessively steep slopes of more than 20 degrees.
Use extreme caution when reversing or pulling the mower towards you.
Stop the engine before moving the mower across areas other than grass.
Never operate the mower unless the guards are securely in position and
in good condition.
Do not change the engine governor settings or overspeed the engine.
Disengage the rear roller drive clutch before starting the engine.
Start the engine carefully, with feet well away from the cutterblade.
