 1)   Do not operate the engine in a confined space where dangerous carbon monoxide fumes 

can develop.

 2)  Mow only in daylight or good artificial light. 

 3)  If possible, avoid mowing wet grass. 

 4)  Make sure you have a steady foothold on slopes.

 5)  Never run, always walk; do not let the lawnmower pull you. 

 6)  Always mow transversely on slopes and never up and down. 

 7)  Be extremely careful when changing directions on slopes.

 8)  Do not mow on land that slopes more than 20°.  

 9)  Be extremely careful when pulling the lawnmower towards you. 

 10) Stop the blade if the lawnmower is to be tilted for transport, when moving over surfaces 

other than grass and when the lawnmower is transported from or to an area that must be cut.

 11)  Never operate the lawnmower with damaged guards or without the grass-catcher or the 

rear discharge guard.

 12) Do not change the engine settings or overspeed the engine.

 13) On power-driven models, disengage wheel drive before starting up the engine.

 14)  Start up the engine carefully according to the instructions, keeping feet away from the 

blade. 

 15)  Do not incline the lawnmower for start up. Start up the machine on a flat surface without 

obstacles or high grass.

 16)  Never place your hands and feet near or under rotating parts. Always keep away from the 

discharge opening. 

 17)   Do not lift or transport the lawnmower when the engine is running. 

 18) Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug cable:

    –  before making any adjustments under the cutting deck or before unclogging the chute:

    –  before checking, cleaning or working on the lawnmower;

    –   after striking a foreign object. Inspect the machine for any damage to the lawnmower 

and make the necessary repairs before using it again;

    –   if the lawnmower begins to vibrate abnormally (Immediately look for the cause of the 

vibrations and take it to a Specialised Centre for necessary inspections). 

 19)   Stop  the  engine:

    –   whenever you leave the lawnmower unattended. Also remove the key on models with 

electric start up;

    –  before refuelling;

    –  whenever you remove or reattach the grass-catcher;

    –  before adjusting the cutting height.

 20)  Reduce the throttle setting before stopping the engine. Shut off the fuel supply when 

mowing is done, following the instructions in the engine manual.

 21)  When mowing, always keep a safe distance from the rotary blades, given by the length of 

the handle.
