to plastic body parts or the engine caused by gasoline.

EN
17
6.3.4. Checking the safety and efficiency of the machine
- Verify that safety devices are working as described above.
- Check that the brake is in perfect working order.
- Do not start mowing if the blades are vibrating or if you are not sure if they are sharp
enough. Always remember that:
oAn unsharpened blade pulls at the grass and causes the grass to turn yellow.
oA loose blade causes unwanted vibration and can be dangerous.
Caveat: Do not use the machine if you are not sure if it works safely or efficiently. In case
of doubt, contact your official dealer to carry out the necessary checks and repairs.
6.4. Machine use
