•Never allow children or other persons not trained in the use of the machine to use or service it. Local laws may regulate the age of the user.

WARNING! You must use approved personal

!protective equipment whenever you use the machine. Personal protective equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will reduce the degree of injury if an accident does happen. Ask your dealer for help in choosing the right equipment.

•Use hearing protection to minimise the risk of hearing impairment.

•Never wear loose-fitting clothing, jewellery or similar that can get caught in moving parts.

•Never use the machine when barefoot. Always wear protective shoes or protective boots, preferably with steel toes.

•Make sure that you have first aid equipment close at hand when using the machine.

Driving on slopes

Driving on slopes is one of the operations where the risk of the driver losing control of the machine or of it overturning is the greatest; this can result in serious injury or death. All slopes demand extra care. If you cannot reverse up a slope or if you feel unsure, do not mow it.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Do not drive down slopes with the cutting deck raised.

This is what you do

•Remove obstacles such as stones, branches, etc.

•Mow upwards and downwards, not sideways.

>10

•Do not use the machine on ground that slopes more than 10°.

•Take extra care if any attachments are fitted that can change the stability of the machine.

•Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If the tyres start to slip, stop the blades and drive slowly down the slope.

•Always drive smoothly and slowly on slopes.

•Do not make any sudden changes in speed or direction.

•Avoid unnecessary turns on slopes, if necessary, turn slowly and gradually downwards if possible. Drive slowly. Do not turn the wheel sharply.

•Watch out for and avoid driving over furrows, holes and bumps. It is easier for the machine to overturn on uneven ground. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

•Do not mow too close to edges, ditches or banks. The machine can suddenly overturn if one wheel comes over the edge of a steep slope or a ditch, or if an edge gives way.

•Do not mow wet grass. It is slippery, and tyres can lose their grip so that the machine skids.
