FURTHER SAFETY RULES
The above mentioned warnings could not possibly be enough to avoid all risks, if the operator does
not use the mower as instructed. Therefore, we kindly ask you to follow these additional safety rules
outlined below:

engine is running or when the engine is hot. Replace all fuel tank and container caps securely.
36) If the fuel tank has to be drained, this should be done outdoors.
37) Do not operate the lawnmower on gravel which could be sucked up and drawn into the blade,
becoming therefore becoming very dangerous.
38) If you have children, hide the ignition key after using the mower.
39) CAUTION: to avoid the risk of fire, keep the engine compartment, exhaust, discharge outlets,
battery, tank area and fuel pipes free from grass, leaves, dirt etc.
40) Never store the equipment with fuel in the tank inside a building where fumes could reach an
open flame or spark.
Remove the attachment, turn off the engine and disconnect the spark plugs:
a) before cleaning obstructed points.

c) when the machine hits a foreign body (check the mower deck to see if it is damaged and
make repairs before you operate).
