BEFORE STARTING

ATTENTION. Due to the power input of this product on start up, voltage drops may occur and this can influence other equipment (e.g. dimming lights). So for technical reasons we advise, if the mains-impedance is Zmax<0.444 Ohm, these disturbances are not expected. If you require further clarification, you may contact your local power supply authority.

1.Before use, check that the mower is in good working order.

2.Ensure the power button is in the off position and disconnect the cable plug from the mains supply.

3.Examine the general condition of the mower. Inspect the body underneath the cover, blade, switch, power cord and extension cord (if used).

4.Check for loose screws, misalignment, binding of moving parts, improper mounting, broken parts and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs during operation, turn the mower off immediately and have the problem corrected.

5.Do not use a damaged tool and attach a label “DO NOT USE” to the tool.

6.Ensure that you are on a flat surface and have secure footing.Check that the upper handle (1) is in line with the lower handle (17) and that the wing knobs (9) are securely tightened.

WARNING. Do not operate the mower unless the grass box is in place.
