Safety Instructions for Hand-Operated Lawn

Mowers

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

oﬀ 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 muﬄ 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 oﬀ the engine and

pull oﬀ 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.

8. Use special caution when backing up and

pulling the lawn mower. Tripping hazard! Al-

ways be extra careful when turning the mower

around and when pulling it towards you.

9. Ensure that the blade has stopped rotating

whenever the mower has to be tilted, trans-

ported over areas other than lawns, or moved

from or to the area you want to mow.

10. Never use the lawn mower if the blade or

safety grilles are damaged, or without the

attached guards, e.g. deﬂ ectors and/or grass

catching devices.

11. Do not adjust or overclock the engine speed

settings.
