•Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the equipment is in safe working condition.

•Never store the equipment with petrol in the tank inside a building where fumes may reach an open flame or spark.

•Allow the engine to cool before storing in any enclo- sure.

•To reduce the fire hazard, keep the engine, silencer, battery compartment and petrol storage area free of grass, leaves, or excessive grease.

•Check the grass catcher frequently for wear or deterio- ration.

•Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.

•If the fuel tank has to be drained, this should be done outdoors.

•On multi-bladed machines, take care as rotating one blade can cause other blades to rotate.

•When machine is to be parked, stored or left unat- tended, lower the cutting means unless a positive mechanical lock is used.

CAUTION: Always disconnect spark plug wire and place wire where it cannot contact spark plug in order to prevent accidental starting when setting up, transporting, adjusting or making repairs.
