Explanation of general view

KNOW YOUR LAWN MOWER

Read this manual carefully, observing the recommended 
safety instructions before, during and after using your 
lawn mower. Following these simple instructions will also 
maintain your lawn mower in good working order. 
Familiarize yourself with the controls on your mower 
before attempting to operate it, but above all, be sure you 
know how to stop your mower in an emergency. Retain 
this user manual and all other literature with your mower

1. SYMBOLS MARKED ON THE 

PRODUCT

DOUBLE INSULATED

 Your mower is double insulated.

This means that all external parts are electrically isolated 
from the power supply. This is achieved by placing an 
extra insulation barrier between the electrical and 
mechanical parts. 

2. GENERAL SAFETY RULES

The purpose of the safety rules is to attract your attention 
to possible dangers. The safety symbols and the 
explanations with them, require your careful attention and 
understanding. The safety warnings do not by themselves 
eliminate any danger. The instruction or warnings they 
give are not substitutes for proper accident prevention 
measures.

WARNING:

 Failure to obey a safety warning can 

result in serious injury to yourself or to others. Always 
follow the safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, 
electric shock and personal injury. Save owners manual 
and review frequently for continuing safe operation and 
instructing others who may use this tool.

WARNING:

 This machine produces an 

electromagnetic field during operation. This field may 
under some circumstances interfere with active or passive 
medical implants. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal 
injury, we recommend persons with medical implants to 
consult their physician and the medical implant 
manufacturer before operating this machine.

WARNING:

 The operation of any tool can result 

in foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which can
result in eyes severely damaged. Before beginning power 
tool operation, always wears safety goggles or safety 
glasses with side shields and a full face shield when 
needed. We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use 
over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses with side 
shield.

instructions to use the lawn mower. Local regulations 
can restrict the age of the operator.

3) Never mow while people, especially children, or pets
