things. Examples of improper use may include, but are not limited to:

  –  transporting persons, children or animals on the machine;

3   Never allow children or persons unfamiliar with these instructions to use the lawnmower. 

Local regulations can restrict the minimum age of the operator.

4)   Never use the lawnmower:

  –  when people, especially children or pets are nearby;

  –   if the operator has taken medicine or substances that may impair his ability to react and 

be attentive.

5)    Bear in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or unexpected events 

occurring to other people or their property.

1)   While mowing, always wear sturdy footwear and long trousers. Do not operate the 

lawnmower when barefoot or wearing open sandals. 

2)    Thoroughly inspect the entire work area and remove anything that could be thrown by the 

machine or damage the cutting unit or engine (stones, branches, iron wire, bones, etc.).

3)    WARNING:  DANGER! Petrol is highly flammable.

  –  store the fuel in suitable containers;

is handled;

  –   add petrol before starting the engine; never add petrol or remove the petrol tank cap 

while the engine is running or when it is hot;

  –   if you have spilt some fuel, do not attempt to start the engine but move the lawnmower 

away from the area of spillage to avoid creating any source of ignition until the fuel has 

evaporated and fuel vapours have dissipated.

  –  always put the tank and fuel container caps back on and tighten well;

4)   Replace faulty silencers

5)    Before use, always inspect generally and in particular to see that the blade, screws and 

cutting deck are not worn or damaged. Replace damaged or worn blades and screws to 

preserve balance.
