 2.2  PRELIMINARY PROCEDURES

• 

Always wear suitable work attire, hard-wearing safety 

footwear with non-slip soles and long trousers. Do 

not operate the machine when barefoot or wearing 

open sandals. Wear hearing protection devices.

• 

Never wear scarves, shirts, necklaces, bracelets,  

loose flowing clothing, laces or ties or any hanging or 

flapping accessory that could catch in the machine 

or in any objects or materials in the work area.

• 

Tie your hair back if it is long.

• 

Wear protective gloves whenever your hands are at risk.

• 

Thoroughly inspect the entire work area and 

remove anything that could be thrown by the 

machine or damage the blade/rotating units 

(stones, branches, iron wire, bones, etc.)

 2.3  DURING OPERATION

• 

Do not use the machine in environments at risk 

of  explosion, in the presence of flammable 

liquids, gas or powder. Power tools create 

sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

• 

Do not expose the machine to rain or wet 

environments. Water entering a power tool 

will increase the risk of electric shock.

• 

Work only in daylight or with good artificial 

light in good visibility conditions.

• 

Avoid working with wet grass, in the rain and when 

there is a risk of a thunderstorm, especially lightening.

• 

Pay careful attention to uneven ground 

(hills, dips), slopes, hidden hazards and 

obstacles that could limit visibility.

• 

Be very careful near ravines, ditches or embankments. 

The machine could overturn if a wheel slides 

over the edge or if the earth gives way.

• 

Always mow across a slope and never up and 

down. Being very careful when changing direction, 

making sure you have firm footage and that the 

wheels do not hit any obstacles (such as stones, 

branches, roots, etc.) that may cause the machine 

to slide sideways or make you lose control of it.

• 

The machine must not be used on slopes over 

20°, regardless of the mowing direction.

• 

Do not incline the lawnmower during 

ignition. Ignite the machine on a flat surface 

without obstacles or high grass.

• 

Exercise caution when pulling the lawnmower 

towards you or moving backwards. Look behind 

you to make sure there are no obstacles.

• 

Never run, always walk.

• 

Do not allow the lawnmower to pull you along.

• 

Always keep hands and feet away from the blade, 

when starting and when using the machine.

• 

Keep away from the discharge opening.

• 

Never operate the machine with damaged, missing 

or incorrectly assembled guards (grass catcher, 

side discharge guards

, 

rear discharge guards).

• 

Never disengage, deactivate, remove or tamper 

with the safety systems/micro switches installed.

  If something breaks or an accident occurs during 

mowing, turn off the motor immediately and move the 

machine away to prevent further damage; if an  

accident occurs with injuries or third parties are  

injured, carry out the first aid measures most suitable 

for the situation immediately and contact the medical 

authorities for any necessary health care. Carefully 

remove any debris which could cause damage or injury 

to persons or animals if ignored.

 2.4  MAINTENANCE, STORAGE

Ensure regular maintenance and correct storage to 

maintain machine safety and high performance levels.

• 

Every time you finish working, check there are no loose 

or damaged components. If necessary, replace the 

damaged components and tighten any screws and 

loose bolts or contact the authorised service centre.

• 

Never use the machine with worn or damaged parts. 

Faulty or worn-out parts must always be replaced and 

never repaired.

 Use original replacement parts only.

• 

Be careful during adjustment of the machine to 

prevent entrapment of the fingers between moving 

parts of the blade and fixed parts of the machine.

• 

To reduce fire risks, do not leave containers 

with debris inside a room.

• 

Store the machine: 

– Covered with a sheet where possible.

– In a place where children cannot get to it.

– Making sure that keys or tools used 

for maintenance are removed.

• 

Make sure that machine movements do 

not cause damage or injuries.

  The noise and vibration levels shown in these 

instructions are the maximum levels for use of the 

machine. The use of an unbalanced cutting element, 

the excessive speed of movement, or the absence of 

maintenance have a significant influence on noise 

emissions and vibrations. Consequently, it is necessary 

to take preventive steps to eliminate possible damage 

due to high levels of noise and stress from vibration. 

Maintain the machine well, wear ear protection devices, 

and take breaks while working.

 2.5  BATTERY / BATTERY CHARGER

IMPORTANT

 The following safety instructions 

are in addition to the safety requirements 

provided in the specific battery and battery 

charger manual delivered with this machine.

• 

Only use battery chargers recommended by the 

manufacturer to recharge batteries. An inadequate 

battery charger may cause electric shock, overheating 

or corrosive liquid to leak from the battery.

• 

Use only batteries specifically designed for 

your power tool. The use of other batteries 

may cause injuries and fire risks.

• 

Make sure that the machine is switched off before 

inserting the battery. Inserting a battery in a 

machine which is switched on can cause a fire.

• 

Keep all unused batteries at a distance from 

paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other 

small metal objects as contact with the same 

can cause short circuits. Short circuits between 

battery contacts can lead to explosion or fires.

• 

Never use the battery charger in environments in 

the presence of vapours, flammable substances 

or on easily flammable surfaces such as 

paper, fabric, etc. The battery charger heats 

up during recharging and may cause a fire.
