• Remember there is no such thing as a “safe” slope. Travelling on grass slopes
requires particular care. To guard against overturning:
- when descending or driving uphill, do not stop or start off abruptly
- engage the drive slowly and always keep the machine in gear, especially when travelling
downhill;
- machine speeds should be kept low on slopes and during tight turns;
- avoid various terrain inequalities (potholes, depressions, piles, moles) and other hidden
dangers
- Never mow across slopes, and always stand when driving up or down
CAUTION! A
Never use reverse to reduce downhill speed. Using reverse in this manner may result
in losing control of the machine and/or machine failure.
USING PETROL MACHINES
• When working with a petrol machine never use brute force. The machine, which was
designed for the job, performs it better and safer, therefore always use the correct machine
for a given task.
• The performance of a petrol engine mounted on a particular device, may not achieve gross
output. It is caused by many factors, e.g. the used components (exhaust, charging, cooling,
carburettor, air filter, etc.), usage restrictions, operational conditions of use (temperature,
humidity, etc.) and the differences between individual engines produced.
ENGINE OPERATION
WARNING! B
Engine produces carbon monoxide during operation. It is a colourless, odourless
poisonous gas. Breathing carbon monoxide can cause nausea, faintness, reproductive
disorders or even death.
CAUTION! A
A running engines generates heat. Parts of the engine and silencer become extremely
hot during operation. After touching they may cause serious burns. If it is close to
any flammable materials, e.g. leaves, grass, shrubbery etc., it may catch fire.
• Do not start the engine in a closed space which can cause an accumulation of carbon
monoxide.
• Do not tilt the machine to avoid overturning or leaking petrol and oil.
• Turn off en engine before leave the machine, or refueling.
C Pay attention to the safety instructions and warnings in a chapter FUEL.
