SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

•Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations regarding wheel weights or counterbalance weights to increase machine stability.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Wheel weights fitted on the rear wheels are recommended when driving on slopes for safer steering and improved manoeuvrability. Consult your dealer concerning the use of wheel weights if you are unsure. Wheel weights can not be used on AWD-machines. Use counterweights.

Children

•Serious accidents may occur if you fail to be on your guard for children in the vicinity of the machine. Children are often attracted to the machine and mowing. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.

•Keep children away from the area to be mowed and under close supervision by another adult.

•Keep an eye out and shut off the machine if children enter the work area.

•Before and during reversing procedures, look behind you and down for small children.

•Never allow children to ride along. They can fall off and seriously injure themselves or be in the way for safe manoeuvring of the machine.

•Never allow children to operate the machine.

•Be particularly careful near corners, bushes, trees or other objects that block your view.

Maintenance

•Stop the engine. Prevent starting by removing the ignition cable from the spark plug or remove the ignition key before making any adjustments or carrying out maintenance.

•Never fill the fuel tank indoors.

•Petrol and petrol fumes are poisonous and extremely flammable. Be especially careful when handling petrol, as carelessness can result in personal injury or fire.

•Only store fuel in containers approved for the purpose.

•Never remove the fuel cap and fill the fuel tank when the engine is running.

•Allow the engine to cool before refuelling. Do not smoke. Do not fill with fuel in the vicinity of sparks or naked flames.

•Handle oil, oil filters, fuel and the battery carefully, of environmental considerations. Follow the local recycling requirements.

•Electrical shocks can cause injuries. Do not touch cables when the engine is running. Do not test the ignition system with your fingers.

!

WARNING! The engine and the exhaust

system become very hot during operation.

Risk of burn injuries if touched. When

 

mowing, keep away from bushes and other

 

materials in order to avoid a heating effect.

•If leaks arise in the fuel system, the engine must not be started until the problem has been resolved.

•Store the machine and fuel in such a way that there is no risk that leaking fuel or fumes can cause any damage.

•Check the fuel level before each use and leave space for the fuel to expand, because the heat from the engine and the sun may otherwise cause the fuel to expand and overflow.

•Avoid overfilling. If you spill petrol on the machine, wipe up the spill and wait until it has evaporated before starting the engine. If you spill on your clothing, change your clothing.

•Allow the machine to cool before performing any actions in the engine compartment.

•Take care with battery maintenance. Explosive gases form in the battery. Never perform maintenance on the battery while smoking or in the vicinity of open flames or sparks. This can cause the battery to explode and cause serious injuries.

•Make sure all nuts and bolts are tightened correctly and that the equipment is in good condition.

•Do not modify safety equipment. Check regularly to be sure it works properly. The machine must not be driven if protective plates, protective covers, safety switches or other protective devices are not fitted or are defective.

•Observe the risk of injury caused by moving or hot parts if the engine is started with the engine cover open or protective cowlings removed.
