• Use only equipment that is in perfect condition.
• Maintain and clean the equipment regularly.
• Adopt your way of working to the equipment.
• Do not overload the equipment.
• Have the equipment checked if necessary.
• Switch o the equipment when not in use.

When using the petrol lawn mower for extended peri-
ods, vibration-induced circulatory problems may oc-
cur (white nger disease).
We cannot give exact details about the duration of
use in this case because it is dierent for each indi-
vidual.
The following factors can inuence the condition:
• Circulatory problems in the user’s hands
• Low outside temperatures
• Extended periods of use
We therefore recommend you wear warm work
gloves and take regular breaks.
7. Before rst use
Assembling the components
Some parts of the mower come disassembled. For
quick and easy assembly, read and follow the instruc-
tions below.
Important!
You will need the following additional tools (not sup-
plied) for assembly, and also for maintenance work:
• A 1 liter measuring jug (oil/petrol resistant)
• A petrol can (5 liters is sucient for approx. 6 op-
erating hours)
• A funnel (suitable for the tankʼs petrol ller neck)
• Household wipes (to wipe up oil/petrol residue; dis-
pose of these at a lling station)
• A petrol suction pump (plastic, available from DIY
stores)
• An oil can with hand pump (available from DIY
stores)
• 0,6 liter of engine oil (SAE 30)
