The engine exhaust is released into the air in front of
the left rear wheel. When working with the machine,
ensure that this area is always kept clean and is never
covered in order to prevent the accumulation of ex-
haust gasses.
m Workplace safety
Carefully inspect the complete area on which the ma-
chine is to be used and remove any stones, sticks,
wires, bones and other foreign objects which could
be thrown up by the machine. Obstacles (e.g. tree
stumps, roots) can be easily overlooked in long grass.
For this reason, mark all foreign objects (obstacles)
which are hidden in the lawn and cannot be removed
before commencing work with the machine.
Beware of depressions (holes) in the terrain and oth-
er invisible points of danger. Obstacles can be easily
overlooked in long grass.
Use the machine with great care when working near
slopes, terraces, ditches and embankments. In par-
ticular, ensure that you maintain sufficient distance to
such danger areas.
Particular care must be taken at points of poor visibil-
ity, bushes, trees and other obstacles, behind which
persons, especially children, or animals may be hid-
den.
Bring the ride-on mower to a standstill immediately
and stop the mowing blade if someone moves into the
area to be mown.
Always monitor the area in front of the vehicle. Be-
ware of obstacles, in order to be able to evade them
in time.
Before reversing, always check the area behind the
ride-on mower and, if present, disengage the attach-
ment. Never mow in reverse, if it is not absolutely
necessary. When mowing in reverse, take particular
care and before beginning to mow, thoroughly check
the entire area behind the ride-on mower.
When working together in a group, always inform the
others in advance of what you intend to do. Maintain
a safety distance!
The vehicle speed must be reduced before each
change of direction, so that the user retains control
of the machine at all times and also that the ride-on
mower cannot tip over.
When operating near to roads and when crossing
roads, other road users must be taken into account.

Take particular care when mowing near roads, cycle
paths and footpaths. Objects which are thrown up by
the mower can cause severe injury and damage.
m Handling petrol
m Danger to life! Petrol is poisonous and ex-
tremely inflammable.
Petrol must only be stored in appropriate, tested con-
tainers (canisters). Always screw on the fuel tank and
canister caps properly and tightly. Defective caps
must be replaced for safety reasons.
Keep petrol away from sparks, naked flames, pilot
lights, heat sources, and other ignition sources. Do
not smoke!
Refill the tank out-of-doors and do not smoke during
refilling.
Before refilling the tank, stop the engine and allow it
to cool.
Refilling with petrol must be performed before the en-
gine is started. When the engine is running or is hot,
the tank cap must not be removed and the tank must
not be refilled with petrol.
Open the fuel tank cap slowly and carefully. Wait for
pressure compensation and only then remove the
tank cap completely.
Use a suitable funnel or filling pipe for refilling the
tank, so that no fuel can spill onto the engine and
housing or the lawn.
Do not overfill the fuel tank!
To give the fuel room to expand, never fill the fuel tank
past the lower edge of the filler neck. Observe the ad-
ditional instructions in the engine instruction manual.
If petrol is spilled, the engine must only be started af-
ter the petrolcontaminated area has been cleaned. All
attempts at starting must be avoided until the petrol
fumes have dispersed (wipe dry).
Any spilt fuel must be wiped up immediately.
Clothing must be changed if it comes into contact with
petrol.
Following each refilling of the tank, the fuel tank cap
must be properly screwed on and tightened. The ma-
chine must not be operated without the original tank
cap.
