VIBRATIONS
• A high level of vibrations and long periods of exposure are factors that contribute to the medical condition known
as "white finger" (Raynaud's phenomenon). In order to reduce the risk of white finger/toe disease, it is necessary
to take these recommendations into account:
- Always wear gloves.
-
Always be sure your hands stay warm.
-
Take frequent breaks.
-
Always hold the machine firmly by the handles.
• If you detect some of the symptoms of white finger/toe disease, consult your doctor immediately.

WORK AREA SAFETY

• Do not use this machine in an explosive atmosphere in the presence of flammable liquids, gases and dust. Electric
machines create sparks that can ignite dust or fumes.
• The area within a radius of 15 metres around the machine must be considered a hazardous area in which no one
should enter while the machine is running (safety area). When necessary, use ropes and warning signs to mark
the safety zone. Keep children and curious people away while operating this machine. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
• When work must be performed simultaneously by two or more people, always check the presence and location
of the others in order to maintain sufficient distance between each person to ensure safety.
• Keep the work area clean and work in good lighting. Only use this machine in daylight or with good artificial
lighting. Do not use this machine at night, in fog or in poor visibility that does not allow you to see clearly the
work area.
• Check the working area before you mow the lawn and remove any objects (stones, wood, etc.) that may be
thrown by the mower or otherwise damage it.
• After hitting a foreign object, stop the engine. Inspect the mower thoroughly for any damage.
CARE, TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE OF THE MACHINE
• Use this machine, accessories, tools, etc. in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended,
taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.
• Check that all the safety elements are installed and in good condition.
• Do not force this machine. Use this machine for the correct application. Using the correct machine for the type
of work to be done will allow you to work better and safer.
• Carry out regular maintenance of the machine. Do not attempt any maintenance or repair work that is not
described in the instruction manual. We recommend that maintenance and repairs not described in this manual
be carried out exclusively by the Official Technical Service.
• Do not clean the machine with solvents, flammable liquids or hard abrasives.
• Inspect the machine before each use and check that it is not misaligned, that there are loose or jammed parts,
or that there is no wear or damage that could affect its proper operation. If the machine is damaged, have it
repaired by an authorised technical centre before using it again.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Good maintenance of cutting tools reduces the likelihood of incidents by
making them easier to control.
• Spare parts must be original to ensure that the equipment is safe.
• Keep the handlebars of this machine dry and clean. Greasy or oily handlebars are slippery and cause loss of
control over the machine.
