1 INTRODUCTION

Dear Garden Lover,
Where pride in a trim lawn is coupled with a love of gardening, gardeners really
appreciate good gardening equipment. You have made an excellent choice in
purchasing your new lawn mower. It combines the power of a major traditional brand
with the innovations of modern high-tech. You will feel this when you are working with it
and be very pleased with the wonderful result.
Yet before you start work on your lawn, here is some important information which you
should always heed.
Before you start your mower for the first time, read this operation manual through
carefully to familiarise yourself with the correct operation and maintenance of the
machine and to avoid injury or damage to your lawn mower.
Use the lawn mower carefully. The pictograms on the mower draw your attention to the
most important precautionary measures. The meaning of the pictograms is explained
on this page.
The safety instructions in this operating manual are marked with symbols. The symbols
are explained in the table on the following page.
The terms "left" and "right" always refer to the left and right-hand side of the mower
seen in the direction of movement.
Your mower will work reliably when the technical instructions are followed exactly. We
would like to point out that any damage to the mower caused by operating faults is not
covered by warranty / guarantee obligations.
We hope you enjoy cultivating your lawn with your new mower.
