Danger!
When using the equipment, a few safety pre-
cautions must be observed to avoid injuries and
damage. Please read the complete operating
instructions and safety regulations with due care.
Keep this manual in a safe place, so that the in-
formation is available at all times. If you give the
equipment to any other person, hand over these
operating instructions and safety regulations as
well. We cannot accept any liability for damage
or accidents which arise due to a failure to follow
these instructions and the safety instructions.
1. Safety instructions for hand
mower
Note
1. Read the directions with due care. Familiarize
yourself with the settings and proper operati-
on of the machine, engine and accessories (if
provided).
2. Never allow children or other persons who
are not familiar with the operating instructions
to use the mower. Contact your local govern-
mental agency for information regarding mini-
mum age requirements for the user.
3. Never mow in the direct vicinity of persons
- especially children - or animals. Keep child-
ren and other persons away from the mower
during operation. Always keep in mind that
the operator or user of the equipment is res-
ponsible for accidents involving other persons
and/or their property.
4. If you give the equipment to any other per-
sons, hand over these operating instructions
and the safety information as well.
Preliminary measures
1. Always wear sturdy, non-slip footwear and
long trousers when mowing. Never mow bare-
foot or in open sandals.
2. Check the ground on which the equipment
will be used and remove all objects that could
be caught up and
fl
ung out, e.g. stones, toys,
sticks and wire.
3.
Warning:
Petrol is highly
fl
ammable! Therefore:
- Only store petrol in containers designed to
hold petroleum-based liquids.
- Only refuel out in the open and do not
smoke during the refueling process.
- Use a funnel and a measuring vessel. Wipe
o
ff
any spilled petrol.
- Always refuel before starting the engine. Do
not open fuel tank cap and do not refuel when
the engine is running or when the scythe is
hot.
- If petrol has escaped, do not under any
circumstances attempt to start the engine.
Instead, remove the equipment from the af-
fected area. Avoid starting the engine until the
petrol fumes have completely evaporated.
- For safety reasons, the petrol tank and other
tank closures must be replaced if they are
damaged.
- Keep petrol away from children.
4. Replace defective mu
ffl
ers.
5. Before using the scythe, visually inspect it to
ensure that the blade, mounting bolts and the
entire cutting apparatus are in good working
order (i.e. not worn out or damaged). To carry
out this check,
fi
rst switch o
ff
the engine and
pull o
ff
the spark plug connector. To prevent
any imbalance, replace worn out or damaged
blades and mounting bolts as a set only (if
applicable). Only original parts or parts ap-
proved by the manufacturer may be used for
repairs.
6. Please note that where equipment has more
than one blade, the rotation of one of the bla-
des can cause the others to rotate as well.
7. Make sure that all the guards are
fi
tted and
that they are in good working order. Never
remove any safety-related components.
Handling
1. Do not let the combustion engine run in enc-
losed areas, as dangerous carbon monoxide
gas can build up. Start the engine only when
you are out in the open.
2. Only mow in broad daylight or in well-lit con-
ditions. If possible, avoid using the equipment
on wet grass.
3. Always maintain good footing on inclines.
Wear shoes with non-slip, high-grip soles.
Use extra caution when mowing on inclines
and steep grades.
4. Only operate the equipment at a walking
pace.
5. For machines with wheels: Always mow ac-
ross slopes, i.e. never straight up or straight
down.
6. Be particularly careful when you change di-
rection on a slope or incline.
7. Do not mow on overly steep inclines. For
safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be
used to mow inclines whose gradient ex-
ceeds 15 degrees.
