Starting
Never start a lawn mower unless the cutters and all covers
are fitted correctly.
Never start the machine indoors. Exhaust fumes can be
dangerous if inhaled.
Observe your surroundings and make sure that there is no
risk of people or animals coming into contact with the
cutting equipment.
Place the lawn mower on firm, flat surface and start it.
Make sure that the cutter cannot come into contact with
the ground or other objects.
Never twist the starter cord around your hand.
See the instructions under the heading Start and stop.
Fuel safety
(Refuelling/Storage.)
Never refuel the machine while the engine is running.
Always ensure there is adequate ventilation when
refuelling and filling oil.
Move the machine at least 3 m from the refuelling point
before starting it.
Never start the machine:
1 If you have spilt fuel or engine oil on the machine. Wipe
off the spill and allow the remaining fuel to evaporate.
2 If you spill fuel or engine oil on yourself or your clothes.
Change your clothes.
3 If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaks
from the fuel cap and fuel lines.
Transport and storage
The fuel and engine oil tanks should be emptied before
longer periods of storage or when transporting the lawn
mower. Ask where you can dispose of surplus fuel and
engine oil at your local petrol station.
Always store the lawn mower and fuel so that any leakage
or vapours do not risk coming into contact with sparks or
naked flames. For example, electrical machines, electric
motors, relays/switches, boilers, or the like.
Always store fuel in an approved container designed for
that purpose.

WARNING! Long-term inhalation of the
engine's exhaust fumes can represent a
health hazard.

WARNING! Fuel and fuel vapour are highly
inflammable. Take care when handling fuel
and engine oil. Bear in mind the risk of fire,
explosion and inhaling fumes.
