Exhaust gases:
Danger to life through poisoning!
In the case of nausea, headache,
impaired vision (e.g. decreasing
field of view) hearing disorder,
dizziness, decreasing power of
concentration, stop working
immediately. These symptoms may
be caused by excessively high
exhaust gas concentrations.
The machine generates
poisonous exhaust gases when
the engine is running. The
gases contain poisonous
carbon monoxide, a colourless and
odourless gas, as well as other pollutants.
The engine must never be operated in
closed or poorly ventilated spaces.
Starting:
Exercise care when starting the machine
and observe the instructions contained in
the section entitled "Operating the
machine" ( 13.). Starting the machine in
accordance with these instructions
reduces the risk of injury.
Risk of injury!
If the starter rope recoils at speed, the
hand and arm will be pulled towards the
engine faster than the starter rope can be
released. This kickback can result in
broken bones, crush injuries and sprains.
Keep your feet a safe distance from the
cutting tool when starting the machine.
The machine must not be tilted during
start-up.
The self-propulsion lever must not be
actuated when starting the engine.
RM 650 VS, RM 655 RS, RM 655 VS,
RM 655 YS: The mowing blade must not
be engaged when starting the engine.

Do not start the engine if the discharge
chute is not covered by the discharge flap
or the grass catcher box.
Working on slopes:
Always work across and back on slopes,
never up and down.
If the user loses control when mowing up
and down, there is a risk of being run over
by the machine.
Be particularly careful when changing
direction on a slope.
Always ensure good stability on slopes
and avoid mowing on excessively steep
slopes.
For safety reasons, the machine must not
be used on slopes with an inclination of
more than 25° (46.6%). Risk of injury!
A slope inclination of 25° corresponds to a
vertical height increase of 46.6 cm for a
100 cm horizontal distance.
In order to ensure an adequate oil supply
for the engine, the information in the
accompanying engine instruction manual
must be additionally observed when using
the machine on slopes.
Working:
Risk of injury!
Never place your hands or feet
above, underneath or on rotating
parts.
Do not attempt to examine the
blade while the lawn mower is
operating. Never open the
discharge flap and/or remove the grass
catcher box when the mowing blade is
running. Rotating blades can cause injury.
Only operate the machine at walking
speed – never run when working with the
machine. Working quickly with the
machine increases the risk of injury due to
stumbling, slipping, etc.
Only guide the machine using the
handlebar – never use the levers to move
the lawn mower. ( 12.1)
Be particularly careful when turning the
machine around or pulling it towards you.
Risk of stumbling!
Use the machine with great care when
working near slopes, terraces, ditches and
embankments. In particular, ensure that
you maintain sufficient distance to such
danger areas.
Objects hidden in the turf (lawn sprinkler
systems, posts, water valves, foundations,
electrical wires, etc.) must be avoided.
Never run over any such foreign objects.
Beware of the cutting tool
running on for several seconds
before coming to a standstill.
Switch off the engine, allow the
work tool to come to a complete
standstill, detach the spark plug socket
and additionally remove the battery (with
RM 650 VE),
– before leaving the machine unattended,
– before re-filling the tank. Allow the
engine to cool down before filling the
tank.
Fire hazard!
