• Switch off the engine if the mower must be tilt-
ed when being transported over surfaces other
than grass, and also when the mower is being
transported to and from the area to be cut.
• Never operate the mower with inadequate pro-
tection or without safety equipment, e.g. deflec-
tors and/or the grass collector, in place.
• Do not change the setting of the engine regula-
tor and never rev the engine.
• Start the engine carefully according to the in-
structions given. Keep your feet well away from
the blades.
• Do not tilt the mower when starting the engine
unless the mower must be tilted for starting. If
this is the case, it should not be tilted more than
necessary, and the part furthest away from the
operator should be tilted.
• Keep hands and feet away from the rotating
blade and other rotating parts. If the mower has
a grass ejector opening, never put your hand
into it.
• Never lift or carry the mower while the engine
is running.
Shut off the engine and detach the spark plug
lead:
• When leaving the mower unattended.
• When removing sticks and other rubbish, or
when the grass ejector has become clogged.
• During inspection, cleaning, or when servicing
the mower.
• When checking for damage and performing any
repairs after running over a foreign object, be-
fore restarting the mower.
• When checking the machine if it starts to vi-
brate excessively. (Check immediately.)
• Before refilling with petrol.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
• Check that all nuts and bolts are tightened so
that the machine is in a safe operating condi-
tion.
• Never keep the machine, with petrol in the tank,
inside buildings where fumes can come into
contact with naked flames or sparks.
• Allow the engine to cool before putting the ma-
chine away.
• To reduce the risk of fire, keep the engine, si-
lencer and fuel tank free from grass, leaves and
excess oil.
• If the machine is fitted with a grass collector, it
should be checked regularly for signs of wear or
damage.
• To ensure safe operation, replace any worn or
damaged parts.
• If it becomes necessary to empty the fuel tank,
this must be done out of doors.
• Store the machine where children cannot gain
access to it.
THE ENVIRONMENT
In order to protect the environment, we recom-
mend that the following points should be given
special consideration:
• Always use pure unleaded petrol.
• Always use a funnel and/or a petrol can with a
level control to avoid spillage when refilling the
fuel tank.
• Do not fill the fuel tank completely.
• Do not overfill with engine and/or transmission
oil.
• When changing the oil, ensure that all the used
oil is collected. Avoid spillage. Take the used
oil to a recycling unit.
• Do not dispose of the used oil filter in a rubbish
bin. Take it to a recycling unit.
• Replace the silencer if faulty. When carrying
out repairs, always use original spare parts.
• If the machine was originally equipped with a
catalyser which is now faulty, a new one must
be fitted when the silencer is replaced.
• Always seek professional help when the carbu-
rettor requires adjustment.
• Clean the air filter according to the directions.
• When, after many years of service, your ma-
chine needs to be replaced or is no longer re-
quired, we recommend that the machine is
returned to your distributor for recycling.
