Before carrying out any work on the device
¾ Protect yourself against injury by doing the
following prior to all performing work on the
device:
- Switch off the engine
- Remove the ignition key
- Engage the parking brake
- Wait until all rotating parts have come to a stand-
still
- Wait until the engine has cooled down
- Pull the spark plug connector off the engine so
that the engine cannot inadvertently start.
General safety instructions
¾ Never leave the engine running in buildings or
poorly ventilated spaces. Risk of fatality due to
carbon monoxide poisoning!
¾ Spare parts and accessories must meet the
requirements specified by the manufacturer.
You should therefore only use original spare
parts/accessories, or those which have been
approved by the manufacturer. Always observe
the installation instructions supplied with the parts
during replacement. The use of spare parts or
accessories not approved by the manufacturer
can represent a significant safety risk.
¾ Arrange for repairs to be performed solely by
a qualified expert or workshop.
¾ Do not carry passengers on the device. The
device is not licensed for transporting people.
¾ This device is designed for maintaining
grass and lawns in a domestic setting. Due
to dangers posed to the body of the user or
other persons, the device must not be used for
purposes other than those intended.
¾ Operate the unit in daylight or adequate
artificial lighting only. Keep your work area
clean and well illuminated.
¾ Escaping hydraulic fluids or other such
pressurised liquids can cause severe injuries.
Never attempt to feel leaks with your hand!
Use a piece of paper or cardboard to do this.
Wear gloves and some protective goggles when
checking the device for leaks. If liquid gets into
the eyes, seek immediate medical attention.
Never carry out checks, if pressurised systems/
lines remain under pressure. Only allow service
centres to work on pressurised systems or lines.
¾ Regularly ensure that the cutting blades
come to a standstill about five seconds after
the cutter deck is switched off (this can be
detected audibly because rotating cutting
blades produce a wind noise). If the cutting
blades do not stop within this time frame, the
device should be checked by a service centre.

Safety information
¾ Ensure maintenance work is always
performed to schedule so that the device
remains in a safe condition. Deficient improper
maintenance may lead to device damage and
thus to injury.
¾ The engine and exhaust become hot and can
lead to buns. Do not touch!
¾ Only use the mower in dry weather
conditions. Keep the mower away from rain or
dampness. If used on wet grass, the device may
slip because of reduced adhesion.
¾ Do not use the device if it is raining or there is
a risk of storms.
¾ Do not start the engine if any petrol has been
spilt. Push the device away from the area where
the petrol was spilt and wait until the petrol fumes
have evaporated.
¾ Handle fuel with care. Fuel and petrol
vapour is explosive and petrol is extremely
flammable. Do not refill the fuel tank while the
engine is running or still hot. Only refuel the
device outside. Store fuel in approved containers
only and never close to sources of heat (e.g.
heaters, stoves or hot-water boilers). Have a
damaged exhaust unit, fuel tank or fuel cap
replaced.
¾ To prevent a fire hazard, keep the engine,
exhaust, battery, the fuel tank and the
hydraulic parts free from grass and leaking
oil.
¾ Also follow the instructions in the engine
handbook.
