Use limitations
• Never operate the machine with guards
damaged, missing or incorrectly
assembled (grass catcher, side discharge
guards rear discharge guards)
• Don't use the machine if the attachments/
tools are not installed in their seats.
• Never disengage, deactivate, remove
or tamper with the safety systems/
microswitches installed.
• Do not strain the machine too much and
do not use a small machine for heavy-
duty work. If you use the right machine,
you will reduce the risk of hazards and
improve the quality of your work.
• The machine has not been approved
for use on public roads. It must be used
(as indicated by the highway code)
in private areas closed to traffic.
2.4 MAINTENANCE, STORAGE
Ensure regular maintenance and correct
storage to maintain machine safety
and high performance levels.
Maintenance
• Never use the machine with worn or
damaged parts. Faulty or worn-out parts must
always be replaced and never repaired.
• To reduce the risk of fire, regularly check
the machine for oil and/or fuel leaks.
• Be careful during adjustment of the
machine to prevent entrapment of the
fingers between moving parts of the cutting
means and fixed parts of the machine.
The noise and vibration levels shown in these
instructions are the maximum levels for use of
the machine. The use of an unbalanced cutting
element, the excessive speed of movement, or
the absence of maintenance have a significant
influence on noise emissions and vibrations.
Consequently, it is necessary to take preventive
steps to eliminate possible damage due to
high levels of noise and stress from vibration.
Maintain the machine well, wear ear protection
devices, and take breaks while working.
Storage
• Do not store the machine with fuel in the tank
in an area where fuel vapours could reach a
naked light, a spark or a strong heat source.
• To reduce fire risks, do not leave
containers with debris inside a room.
2.5 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Safeguarding the environment must be a relevant
and priority aspect of machine use, of benefit to
the community and the environment we live in.
• Avoid being a disturbance to the
neighbourhood.
reasonable times of the day only (not
early morning or late evening when the
noise could cause disturbance).
• Adhere strictly to the local regulations
governing the disposal of packaging, oil,
fuel, filters, damaged parts or any other
element which may have an impact on
the environment; this waste should not be
disposed of along with standard household
waste, but must be disposed of separately
and sent to special waste disposal
facilities for handling and recycling.
• Scrupulously comply with local regulations
for the disposal of waste materials
• When the machine is withdrawn from service,
do not dump it in the environment, but take
it to a waste disposal facility in accordance
with the local regulations in force.
