BASIC WORK SAFETY

• Never use the machine if the power cable is damaged or visibly worn.
• If the lawn mower is connected to a power source using a damaged power cable and the place that is not insulated is touched before the lawn mower is disconnected from the power source, you risk being electrocuted.
• Also, never touch the blades until the machine is disconnected from the power source and until the blades completely stop.
• Make sure the extension cable never comes into contact with the blades. The blades could damage the power cable insulation and create a risk of an electric shock when a part of the body touches the exposed wire when it is live.
• Disconnect the machine from the voltage source (i.e. pull the power cable plug out of the mains power socket):
  • If you have to leave the machine unsupervised
  • If you are looking for faults
  • Before every inspection, cleaning or repair
  • If you hit a foreign body when working with it
  • If the machine vibrates excessively.
• Read carefully the basics of working safely with the machine and the user’s manual.
• Recommendation: Only connect the machine to a power source that has a residual current device (RCD) with a maximum leakage current of 30mA.
• If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or by a customer service centre. This machine must not be operated by those with limited physical, sensory or mental abilities (including children). Furthermore, it must not be used by inexperienced people who do not have the technical knowledge to operate it. These people must be supervised by a competent person or instructed about the basics of work safety.
• If there are children are near the machine, make sure they do not play with the machine.
• Tingling or numb hands are indications of excessive vibrations.
• If this happens, shorten the work cycle, take sufficiently long breaks, share the work among several people or if the lawn mower is used for long periods wear special anti-vibration gloves.
• An unavoidable consequence of using the lawn mower is the noise when it is running. Therefore, only do noisy work during stated hours, or when this type of activity is normal. Respect quiet times and try to limit the work to the shortest possible time.
• We also recommend that you and persons near the lawn mower wear ear protectors.

OTHER RISKS

• Despite our products being designed to meet the valid technical standards and safety directives, there are still some risks to the user from using the machine:
  • Stones and other fragments may fly out of the mowing deck.
  • If the machine operator does not use ear protectors, then they risk subsequent deafness.
  • Injured fingers during blade maintenance
  • Inhaling grass clipping particles
  • Electric shock from un-insulated parts.
• This machine must not be operated by those with limited physical, sensory or mental abilities (including children) or inexperienced persons or persons whose technical knowledge is evidently insufficient for the given task; and these people should only operate the device under the supervision of a person that is competent for this task or where the person is thoroughly instructed in working safely with the machine.
• If children are near the machine, make sure they do not play with it.

ATTENTION! Carefully read the user manual before using this lawn mower. Make sure that you thoroughly know all the control elements. Following the work safety rules for the machine minimises the risk of fire, electric shock or other injuries.

• If the machine is incorrectly operated it could cause an injury. The lawn mower could cause serious injury to the user and those nearby and therefore these work safety rules should always be followed to eliminate this risk if possible. The user is responsible for safety when working with the machine. Never use the machine if any of its safety items are missing or not in full working order.
