restrict the age of the operator.

4) Never use the lawnmower:

– When people, especially children, or pets are nearby.

PREPARATION

1) While mowing, always wear sturdy footwear and long trousers. Do not operate the equipment when

barefoot or wearing open sandals.

the machine or damage the cutter assembly and the engine (stones, sticks, metal wire, bones, etc.)

3) WARNING: DANGER! Engine fuel is highly ammable:

– Store fuel in containers specically designed for this purpose.

– Refuel using a funnel and outdoors only. Do not smoke while refuelling or whenever handling the fuel

– Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the cap of the fuel tank or add fuel while the engine is running

creating any source of ignition until the fuel has evaporated and the vapour dispersed.

– Replace all fuel tanks and containers caps securely.

4) Substitute faulty silencers. Never use the machine without silencer.

5) Before use, always inspect the machine, especially the condition of the blades, and check that the

screws and cutting assembly are not worn or damaged. Replace worn or damaged blades and screws in

sets to preserve balance.

6) Before mowing, attach the discharge opening guards (grass-catcher or stone-guard).

4) Always be sure of your footing on slopes.

5) Walk, never run and do not allow yourself to be pulled along by the lawnmower.
