8. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

General safety instructions

This product is intended exclusively for grass mowing. Do not use for any other purposes than

that one it is intended for. In the opposite case there is a danger of its damage or injury.

Never allow children or persons unfamiliar with these instructions for use to work with the

device.

The person operating the mower is responsible for safety of persons in the working area.

Never use the mower near other persons, children or freely moving animals.

Check the terrain on which the mower is to be used before beginning mowing and remove

stones, wires, sticks, shatters, bones and other foreign objects which might be stuck or flung

away and cause an injury.

Instructions for use

All nuts, pins and bolts must be tightened properly so that the device is in a safe and

serviceable condition.

Never use the mower without the collection basket or the protective cover.

Never use the mower with loosened knife blades. Always make sure in advance that the

respective bolts are tightened thoroughly. Blunt blades must be sharpened, and that must be

done evenly. Knives with damaged blades need to be replaced.

When working with the mower, use trousers with long legs and safety shoes.

Never start-up the mower in enclosed or badly ventilated areas where vapours may

accumulate. Emissions coming out from the engine contain carbon monoxide which is

dangerous to life.

Work only when lighting is adequate (daylight or sufficient illumination).

Do not use the mower when raining or grass is wet.

Be extremely careful when mowing on a raising terrain (slope). Always mow across the

slope, parallel with a contour line, never perpendicularly to it uphill/downhill.

Never let the mower run without an operator; if you leave the mower, switch the engine off.

When starting, never lift the rear part of the mower up and never draw your limbs near the

bogie or into the opening for rear grass spitting while the engine is running.

Never change engine speed setup.
