ENGLISH
• Always be sure of your footing,
particularly on slopes.
• Always mow across the face of slopes,
never up and down. Exercise extreme
caution when changing direction on slopes.
• Do not cut excessively steep slopes and
always wear non-slip footwear.
• Check the grassbag frequently for wear
or damage, and replace if necessary.
• Walk, never run. Do not force the mower.
• Never pick up or carry your mower while
the motor is running. Ensure the blades
have stopped rotating when tilting for
transporting the mower to and from the
area to be mowed.
• When transporting your unit, always
remove the safety key, adjust the cut
height setting to a mid position and take
extreme care when lifting.
• Never operate the mower with defective
guards or shields.
Maintenance and storage
• Store your machine in a dry place when
not in use, remove the safety key and
place out of the reach of children.
• Do not use solvents or cleaning fluids to
clean your machine - use a blunt scraper
to remove grass and dirt. Always remove
the safety key before cleaning.
• Do not charge or store the unit outdoors.
• Do not operate your machine if any parts
are defective; discard all defective parts
and fit new parts before use.
• Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.
• Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to
be sure your mower is in a safe working
condition.
• Use only Black & Decker recommended
replacement parts and accessories.
