STARTING THE ENGINE

Disengage all control levers before starting the mo- tor. Keep your feet clear of the attachments fitted to the machine.

Do not run the engine in a closed ambient where the exhaust gases can collect. They contain car- bon monoxide that is highly toxic.

Do not interfere with safety device (engine shut- off). Do not use the motor-mower if this safety de- vice is missing or defective.

Oil bath air filter (if fitted) - When delivered new, there is no oil in the air filter. Before using your mo- tor-mower, add motor oil up to the marked level.

OPERATING OF THE

MOTOR-MOWER

First of all, make sure that you know how to stop the engine in an emergency. Familiarize yourself with the controls and learn how to use your motor- mower correctly.

Do not allow children or inexperienced persons to operate it.

Do not use your motor-mower in proximity of other people, and in particular of children. Do not use it close to animals. Bear in mind that you are re- sponsible for any damage or injury caused to per- sons or things.

Keep your hands and feet clear of the cutter bar when in motion.

Use your motor-mower only in daylight or with good artificial lighting. Operate it at walking pace. Do not run.

Take particular care on slopes; operate only under safe and stable conditions. Do not work uphill or downhill; move across the slope instead. Take spe- cial care when turning.

For obvious reasons, never work on slopes steeper than 30°.

To ensure that gasoline fuelled engines are cor- rectly lubricated, avoid working for long periods on slopes steeper than 20°.

Do not operate the motor-mower if hoods or other safety devices are missing or defective.

Keep your hands and feet clear of all attachments.

Do not lift or transport your motor-mower with the engine running.

Do not leave your motor-mower in closed ambients with fuel in the tank. Fuel vapor is a potential source of danger.

Keep your motor-mower clean. Do not let grass and oil residues build up: these are a fire hazard.

OPERATING OF ATTACHMENTS

Check that the attachment coupled to the PTO fun- tions correctly before starting the motor.

4

Never use attachments coupled to the PTO in prox- imity of children or animals.

Keep your hands and feet well clear of the attach- ment coupled to the PTO.

MAINTENANCE

Stop the engine and disconnect, for gasoline en- gines, the spark plug lead:

before checking or repairing your motor-mower;

in case of excessive vibrations (investigate cause immediately).

Stop the engine before adjusting attachments.

Periodically check that all nuts and bolts are tight.

Fuel is highly flammable. Store fuel only in spe- cifically designed containers. Refuel your motor- mower in the open. Do not smoke while refuelling.

Complete refuelling before starting the engine. Do not remove the fuel cap or refuel when the engine is running or hot. In case of fuel spillage, do not start the engine. Push your motor-mower some dis- tance away from where the spillage occurred be- fore starting it.

Replace the exhaust pipe if it becomes worn or damaged.
