ThismachinemeetsorexceedsEuropeanStandardsin effectatthetimeofproduction.However,improper useormaintenancebytheoperatororownercan resultininjury.Toreducethepotentialforinjury, complywiththesesafetyinstructionsandalwayspay attentiontothesafetyalertsymbol,whichmeans CAUTION,W ARNING,orDANGER-“personal safetyinstruction.”Failuretocomplywiththeinstruction mayresultinpersonalinjuryordeath.

SafeOperatingPractices

ThefollowinginstructionsarefromtheENstandard EN836:1997.

Thisproductiscapableofamputatinghandsand feetandthrowingobjects.Alwaysfollowallsafety instructionstoavoidseriousinjuryordeath.

Training

•Readtheinstructionscarefully.Befamiliarwiththe controlsandtheproperuseoftheequipment.

•Neverallowchildrenorpeopleunfamiliarwiththese instructionstousethelawnmower.Localregulations canrestricttheageoftheoperator.

•Nevermowwhilepeople,especiallychildren,orpets arenearby .

•Keepinmindthattheoperatororuserisresponsible foraccidentsorhazardsoccurringtootherpeopleor theirproperty.

•Donotcarrypassengers.

•Alldriversshouldseekandobtainprofessional andpracticalinstruction.Suchinstructionshould emphasize:

–theneedforcareandconcentrationwhen

workingwithride-onmachines;

–controlofaride-onmachineslidingonaslope

willnotberegainedbytheapplicationofthe brake.Themainreasonsforlossofcontrolare:

◊insufcientwheelgrip;

◊beingdriventoofast;

◊inadequatebraking;

◊thetypeofmachineisunsuitableforitstask;

◊incorrecthitchingandloaddistribution.

Preparation

•Whilemowing,alwayswearsubstantialfootwearand longtrousers.Donotoperatetheequipmentwhen barefootorwearingopensandals.

•Thoroughlyinspecttheareawheretheequipment istobeusedandremoveallobjectswhichmaybe thrownbythemachine.

•Warning-Fuelishighlyammable.

–Storefuelincontainersspecicallydesignedfor

thispurpose.

–Refueloutdoorsonlyanddonotsmokewhile

refueling.

–Addfuelbeforestartingtheengine.Never

removethecapofthefueltankoraddfuelwhile theengineisrunningorwhentheengineishot.

–Iffuelisspilled,donotattempttostartthe

enginebutmovethemachineawayfromthe areaofspillageandavoidcreatinganysourceof ignitionuntilfuelvaporshavedissipated.

–Replaceallfueltanksandcontainercapssecurely .

•Replacefaultysilencers.

•Beforeusing,alwaysvisuallyinspecttoseethatthe blades,bladeboltsandcutterassemblyarenotworn ordamaged.Replacewornordamagedbladesand boltsinsetstopreservebalance.

•Onmulti-bladedmachines,takecareasrotatingone bladecancauseotherbladestorotate.

Operation

•Bealert,slowdownandusecautionwhenmaking turns.Lookbehindandtothesidebeforechanging directions.

•Donotoperatetheengineinaconnedspacewhere dangerouscarbonmonoxidefumescancollect.

•Mowonlyindaylightoringoodarticiallight.

•Beforeattemptingtostarttheengine,disengageall bladeattachmentclutchesandshiftintoneutral.

•Donotuseonslopesofmorethan15degrees.

•Rememberthereisnosuchthingasasafeslope. Travelongrassslopesrequiresparticularcare.To guardagainstoverturning:

–donotstoporstartsuddenlywhengoingupor

–uselowspeedsonslopesandduringtightturns;

–stayalertforhumpsandhollowsandother

•Usecarewhenpullingloads.

–Useonlyapproveddrawbarhitchpoints.

–Limitloadstothoseyoucansafelycontrol.

–Donotturnsharply.Usecarewhenreversing.

•Watchoutfortrafcwhencrossingornearroadways.

•Stopthebladesrotatingbeforecrossingsurfaces otherthangrass.

•Whenusinganyattachments,neverdirectdischarge ofmaterialtowardbystandersnorallowanyonenear themachinewhileinoperation.

•Reducethethrottlesettingduringenginerun-out and,iftheengineisprovidedwithashut-offvalve, turnthefueloffattheconclusionofmowing.

•Lightningcancausesevereinjuryordeath.If lightningisseenorthunderisheardinthearea,do notoperatethemachine;seekshelter.

MaintenanceandStorage

•Keepallnuts,boltsandscrewstighttobesurethe equipmentisinsafeworkingcondition.

•Neverstoretheequipmentwithfuelinthetank insideabuildingwherefumescanreachanopen ameorspark.

•Allowtheenginetocoolbeforestoringinany enclosure.

•Neveroperatethemachinewithdamagedguardsor withoutsafetyprotectivedevicesinplace.

•Donotchangetheenginegovernorsettingsor overspeedtheengine.Operatingtheengineat excessivespeedcanincreasethehazardofpersonal injury.

•Beforeleavingtheoperator'sposition:

–disengagethepowertake-offandlowerthe

attachments;

–changeintoneutralandsettheparkingbrake;

–stoptheengineandremovethekey.

•Disengagedrivetoattachments,stoptheengine, anddisconnectthesparkplugwire(s)orremovethe ignitionkey .

–beforeclearingblockagesoruncloggingchute;
