Failure to observe all safety
instructions could result in
serious injury or death.
■Never allow children or

1

English (Original Instructions)
SL
EN DE ES IT FR PT NL RU FI SV NO DA PL CS SK SL HR HU RO BG EL AR TR HE LT LV ET
the mower while tired or
under the influence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication. A
lapse in concentration while
operating the machine may
result in serious personal
injury.
■Wear heavy, long trousers,
long sleeves, boots, and
gloves. Do not wear loose
fitting clothing, short trousers,
sandals, or go barefoot.
■Always wear safety glasses
with side shields. Use face
mask if operation is dusty.
■Always be sure of your
footing. Keep firm footing and
balance. Do not overreach.
Overreaching can result in
loss of balance.
■Walk, never run.
■Mow across the face of
slopes, never up and down.
Exercise extreme caution
when changing direction on
slopes.
■Do not mow near drop-offs,
ditches, excessively steep
slopes, or embankments.
Poor footing could cause a
slip and fall accident.
■Plan your mowing pattern
to avoid discharge of
material toward roads, public
pavements, bystanders
and the like. Also, avoid
discharging material against
a wall or obstruction, which
may cause the material to
ricochet back toward the
operator.
WORK AREA SAFETY
■Never mow while people,
especially children, or pets are
nearby.
■Always mow in the daylight or
in good artificial light.
■Do not operate the machine
in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or
dust. The tool may create
sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
■Objects struck by the lawn
mower blade can cause
severe injuries to persons.
Thoroughly inspect the area
where the machine is to be
used and remove all rocks,
sticks, metal, wire, bones,
toys, or other foreign objects.
■Do not operate the machine
in wet grass or in the rain.
■Keep in mind that the operator
or user is responsible
for accidents or hazards
occurring to other people or
their property.

backward unless absolutely
necessary. If you must back
the machine away from a wall
or obstruction, first look down
and behind to avoid tripping
or pulling the machine over
your feet.
■Stop the blade(s) if the
machine has to be tilted for
transportation when crossing
surfaces other than grass,
and when transporting the
machine to and from the area
to be mowed.
■Never operate the machine
with defective guards or
shields, or without safety
devices, for example,
deflectorsand/orgrassboxes,
in place.
■Switch on the motor according
to instructions and keep hands
and feet away from cutting
area.
■Never pick up or carry a
lawnmower while the engine
is running.
■Avoid holes, ruts, bumps,
rocks, property stakes, or
other hidden objects. Uneven
terrain could cause a slip and
fall accident.
■If the machine should start to
vibrate abnormally, stop the
motor and check immediately
for the cause. Replace the
blade if it is unevenly worn
or damaged in any way.
GARDEN TOOLS USE AND
CARE
■Before using, always visually
inspect to ensure blades,
blade bolts, and cutter
assembly are not worn or
damaged.
■Replace worn or damaged
blades and bolts in sets to
preserve balance.
■Check all nuts, bolts, and
screws at frequent intervals
for proper tightness to be
sure the equipment is in safe
working condition.
■Check the grass catcher
frequently for wear or
deterioration.
■Replace worn or damaged
parts.
■Do not force the machine.
It will do the job better and
safer at the speed for which
it was designed.
■Do not overload your mower.
Mowing long thick grass
may cause the motor speed
to drop, or the power to cut
out. When mowing in long
thick grass a first cut with the
cutting height set higher will
help reduce the load.
■Stop the blade when crossing
gravel surfaces.
■Do not pull the mower

■The vibration level during
actual use of the power tool
can differ from the declared
total value depending on
the ways in which the tool is
used.
■It has been reported that
vibrations from the tools may
contribute to a condition called
Raynaud’s Syndrome in
certain individuals. Symptoms
may include tingling,
numbness and blanching of the
fingers, usually apparent upon
exposure to cold. Hereditary
factors, exposure to cold and
dampness, diet, smoking and
workpractices areallthoughtto
contribute to the development
of these symptoms. It is
presently unknown what, if any,
vibrations or extent of exposure
may contribute to the condition.
There are measures that can
be taken by the operator to
possibly reduce the effects of
vibration:
●Keep your body warm
in cold weather. When
operating the unit wear
gloves to keep the hands
and wrists warm. It is
reported that cold weather
