away from the cutting area.
• Remember that the operator/user is
responsible for accidents or hazards
occurring to other people or their property.

spectacles or goggles whilst mowing.
Use a face mask if dusty.

safety key and visually check that the
blade, blade nut and cutter assembly are
not worn or damaged. Damaged blades
and worn blade nuts must be replaced.

path is clear of all sticks, stones, wire
and other debris. Contact with such
debris may damage your machine.
