Warning:
The vibration emission value may differ
during actual use of the power tool
from the stated value depending on
(cc)
the manner in which the power tool
is used.
Safety precautions aimed at protecting
the user should be based on estimated
exposure under actual usage conditions.
All parts of the operating cycle are to be
considered, including, for example,
times during which the power tool is
turned off and times when the tool is
turned on but is running idle.
As a result, the vibration load over the
entire working period is significantly
reduced.
Reduce the vibration load over the
entire working period by additional
safety measures such as:
- the timely maintenance of machine
and accessories, especially the blade
- interruption of the work process by
pauses
- keeping hands warm.

Safety Instructions
This section deals with the basic safety procedures when working with the equipment.
WARNING! Read all of the safety
instructions and directions. Failure
to observe the safety instructions
and directions may result in electric
Instructions:
• Read the operating instructions careful-
ly. Familiarise yourself with the controls
and with the correct use of the equipment.
• In case of uncertainties, allow yourself
to be given instruction concerning the
use of the device and prohibited operations.
• Pay attention, be aware of what you
are doing and take the utmost care
when working. Do not use the device
if you are tired or ill or you are under
medication. A moment of inattention
whilst using the device can result in serious injuries.
• This appliance is not intended for use
by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by
a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to en-
sure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Do not allow children or other people
who are unfamiliar with the operating
instructions to use the equipment. Local
regulations may set a minimum age for
the user.
• Do not mow whilst people – especially
children – or animals are nearby. If
distracted, you may

• The operator or user is responsible for
accidents or damage to other persons
or their property.
• Observe noise control and local regulations.
Preparatory Measures:
• When mowing, always wear slip restistant shoes and long trousers. Do not
mow barefoot or in light sandals. Loose
clothing, jewellery or long hair can
become caught in moving parts. Wearing suitable clothing reduces the risk of
injury.
• Check the area on which the equipment is to be used and remove all
objects (stones, sticks, wires, toy) that
• W
Fire or explosions can result in serious
burns:
- Keep petrol only in containers in-
tended for this purpose;
- Only refuel outdoors and do not
smoke whilst refuelling;
- Fill with petrol before starting the
running or the equipment is hot:
- If petrol is spilled, do not attempt to
start the engine. Instead, remove the
equipment from the surface on which
the petrol has been spilled. Avoid
any ignition attempt until the petrol
fumes have evaporated;
- For reasons of safety, replace petrol
damage.
• Replace defective silencers.

• Before use, always carry out a visual
inspection to check whether the cutting
tools, mounting bolts and entire cutting
unit are worn or damaged. To avoid
imbalance, only replace worn or damaged tools and bolts in sets.
• Take care with equipment that has
several cutting tools, as the movement
of one blade may result in rotation of
other blades.
• Use only replacement parts and accessories supplied and recommended
by the manufacturer. The use of parts
from other manufacturers may result
in injuries and will result in immediate
invalidation of the guarantee.
Handling:
• Do not run the combustion engine in
enclosed spaces, in which dangerous
carbon monoxide can collect.
• Mow only in dayl ight or with good
can result in accidents.
• If possible, avoid using the equipment
on wet grass.
• Always ensure secure positioning, par-
dykes. This will give you better control
of the equipment in unexpected situations.
- Always work acr oss the slope, never
upwards or downwards.
- Take particular care when changing
the direction of travel on the slope.
- Do not mow on excessively steep
slopes (max. 10°).
• Run the equipment only at walking
speed.
• Take particular care when turning the
equipment around or pulling it towards
you.
• Stop the cutting tool if the equipment
has to be tipped up for transportation
over a surface other than grass and
when moving the equipment from and
to the surface to be mown.
• Do not use the equipment with damaged safety equipment or guards or
with no safety equipment attached, e.g.
impact protection and/or g
ers. This ensures that the equipment
remains safe.
• Do not change the engine regulator
setting and do not over-rev it. This may
damage the equipment.
• Before starting, the engine, disengage
all cutting tools and drives.
• Start or operate the start switch with
care and in accordance with the manu-
space between feet and the cutting
tool. Risk of injury.
• When starting or activating the engine,
do not tip the equipment unless the
equipment has to be lifted for this procedure. In this case, tip the equipment
only as far as is absolutely necessary
and lift only the side that is away from
the user.
• Do not start the engine when standing
in front of the ejection channel.
• Switch on the engine in accordance
with the instructions and only if your
feet are a safe distance away from the
cutting tools.
• Do not place hands or feet under rotating parts. Always keep away from the
ejection opening. A moment of carelessness when using the equipment may
result in s
• Do not leave or carry the equipment
when the engine is running.
• Switch off the engine, take out the
spark plug connector and ensure that
all moving parts are still:

Start the engine at least 3 m
-
Start the equipment on a sturdy,
level base, if possible not in long
grass. Ensure that the cutting tool
is touching neither objects nor the
ground.
For your safety: Stand behind the
device when starting it.
Check the petrol and oil levels regu-
larly (see “initial operation”) and
Cold start:
1. Press the petrol pump (33)
(primer) 3 x.
2. Pull and hold the safety
catch (2) towards the grip handle
( 1).
3. Pull the starter handle (7).
4. If the motor starts slowly, release
the starter handle into the starter
rope-guide (3).
For a warm start it is not necessary
to press the primer (33).
If the primer is pressed too often,
too much petrol will enter the car-
start.
Motor stop:
• Release the safety catch (2). The motor
switches off and the blade is braked.
Blade stopping device:
Regularly examine the blade stopping device:
Release the safety loop (2). The motor
switches off and the blade is braked. The
blade must stop within 3 seconds.
Mowing
1. Start the engine (see ).
2. Hold the grip handle (1) and the
safety loop (2) with both hands
while mowing.
Working Instructions
General Working Instructions
• As far as possible, mow the lawn when
it is dry in order to protect the turf.
• Set the cutting height such that the
equipment is not overloaded.
• Run the equipment at walking speed in
lines that are as straight as possible. For
uninterrupted mowing, the lines should
always overlap by a few centimetres.
• Do not move backwards.
• On slopes, always work across the
slope.
• If the blade comes into contact with
a foreign body, switch off the engine
immediately. Wait until the blade is
stationary and check the equipment for
damage. Restart work o
ment is undamaged.
• Switch off the equipment during longer
breaks and for transportation and wait
until the blade is stationary.
