an open flame, a spark or a strong heat source.
15) Allow the engine to cool down before storing
in any enclosure.
16) To reduce fire hazards, keep the engine, si
-
lencer, battery compartment and petrol storage
area free of grass, leaves, or excessive grease.
Always empty the grass catcher and do not
leave containers full of cut grass inside storage
areas.
17) To reduce fire hazards, check there are no
oil and/or fuel leaks on a regular basis.
18) If the fuel tank has to be emptied, this should
be done outdoors once the engine has cooled
down.
19) Never leave the keys in the ignition or within
reach of children or unauthorised persons. Al-
ways remove the ignition key before doing any
maintenance.

suitable resistance, width and length. Load the
machine with the engine switched off, without
a driver and pushed by an adequate number of
people. During transport, close the fuel stop-
cock (if fitted), lower the cutting-means assem
-
bly or attachment, engage the parking brake
and fasten the machine securely with ropes or
chains to the hauling device.
F) ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIO

and the environment in which we live. Try not to
cause any disturbance to the surrounding area.
2) Scrupulously comply with local regulations
and provisions for the disposal of packaging,
oils, petrol, filters, damaged parts or any ele
-
ments which have a strong impact on the envi

normal waste, it must be separated and taken
to specified waste disposal centres where the
material will be recycled.
3) Scrupulously comply with local regulations for
the disposal of waste materials after mowing.
