WARNING
■ Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustra‐
tions and specifications provided with this lawn
mower. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury. Save all warnings and instruc‐
tions for future reference.
27.2
Work Area Safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate lawn mowers in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Lawn mow‐
ers create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a lawn mower. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
27.3
Electrical Safety
a) Lawn mower plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not
use any adapter plugs with earthed (groun‐
ded) lawn mowers. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
c) Do not operate the lawn mower when it is
raining or in wet conditions. This may
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the electric cable. Never use
the electric cable for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the lawn mower. Keep the elec‐
tric cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled electric
cables increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a lawn mower outdoors, use
an extension cable suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cable suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
f)
If operating a lawn mower in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock.

27.4
Personal Safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a lawn
mower. Do not use a lawn mower while you
are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inatten‐
tion while operating lawn mowers may result
in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment
such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the lawn mower. Carrying
lawn mowers with your finger on the switch
or energising lawn mowers that have the
switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the lawn mower on. A wrench or a
key left attached to a rotating part of the lawn
mower may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better con‐
trol of the lawn mower in unexpected situa‐
tions.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
f)
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-
related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent
use of lawn mowers allow you to become
complacent and ignore lawn mower safety
principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
27.5
Lawn Mower Use and Care
a) Do not force the lawn mower. Use the cor‐
rect lawn mower for your application. The
correct lawn mower will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the lawn mower if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any lawn mower
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
