instructions to use the mower.
3. Never mow while people, especially children or pets
are nearby.
4. The operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards
occurring to other people or their property.
5. Do not carry passengers.
6. All drivers should seek to obtain professional and practical
instruction. Such instruction should emphasise:
The need for care and concentration when working with
this machine.
Control of a tractor sliding on a slope will not be regained by
the application of the brake.
The main reasons for loss of control are:
Insufficient wheel grip.
Driving too fast.
Inadequate braking.
Incorrect load distribution.
1. Check that the machine complies with all applicable
regulations, including those in force when used on the public
highway.
2. When mowing always wear substantial footwear and long
trousers. Do not operate when barefoot or with open toe
sandals.
3. WARNING – Diesel is flammable:
Store fuel in containers specifically designed for this purpose.
Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke when refuelling.
Add fuel before starting engine. Never remove the cap from
the fuel tank or add diesel while engine is running or when
engine is hot.
If diesel is spilled, do not attempt to start engine but move the
machine away from the area of spillage and avoid creating a
source of ignition until diesel vapours have dissipated.
Replace the fuel tank cap securely.
4. Replace faulty silencers.
5. Before using, always inspect to see that the blades, bolts and
cutter assembly are not worn or damaged.
