Reduce noise generation and vibration to a minimum!
• Use only equipment that is in perfect condition.
• Maintain and clean the equipment regularly.
• Adopt your way of working to the equipment.
• Do not overload the equipment.
• Have the equipment checked if necessary.
• Switch off the equipment when not in use.
• Wear gloves.
When using the petrol lawn mower for extended peri-
ods, vibration-induced circulatory problems may oc-
cur (white finger disease).
We cannot give exact details about the duration of
use in this case because it is different for each indi-
vidual.
The following factors can influence the condition:
• Circulatory problems in the user's hands
• Low outside temperatures
• Extended periods of use
We therefore recommend you wear warm work gloves
and take regular breaks.

7. Before first use

Times of use
Please comply with statutory regulations, which may
vary from location to location.
Make sure that you are familiar with the controls and
operation of the machine. In particular, the user must
know how the work tools and engine can be stopped
quickly.
The machine must only be used by persons who have
read the instruction manual and are familiar with op-
eration of the machine. The user should seek expert
and practical instruction prior to initial operation. The
user must receive instruction on safe use of the ma-
chine from the vendor or another expert.
During this instruction, the user should be made
aware
• that the utmost care and concentration are required
for working with the machine.
• that a ride-on mower which is sliding down a slope
cannot be brought under control by applying the
brake.

The main causes for the loss of control over the ride-
on mower include:
• inadequate adhesion of the wheels,
• driving too fast,
• inappropriate braking,
• incorrect use (sport events, etc.),
• inadequate knowledge of the effects associated
with ground conditions, especially on slopes (see
section „For your safety", „Working on slopes"),
• incorrect attachment of loads and poor load distri-
bution.
Check the fuel system (particularly visible parts such
as e.g. tank, tank cap, hose connections) before
operating the machine. In the event of any leaks or
damage, do not start the engine – fire hazard! Have
the machine repaired by a specialist dealer prior to
operation.
Defective and all other worn or damaged parts must
be removed before using the machine. Replace any
illegible or damaged danger signs and warnings on
the machine.
The screwed-on discharge port (discharge chute on
mowing deck) must always be securely fastened to
the mowing deck. It must not be damaged and, if nec-
essary, it must be replaced by a technician.
The braking function must be checked before each
use.
Before each use, check whether:
• the cutting tool and the entire cutting unit (mow-
ing blade, blade clutch, blade brake, retaining pin,
mowing deck housing) are in good condition. Par-
ticularly check for secure fastening, damage and
wear.
• the tank cap is securely attached.
• the tank and fuel-carrying parts, as well as the tank
cap are in good condition.
• the safety devices are in good condition and func-
tion correctly.
• the tyres (inflation pressure, damage, wear) and
frame are in good condition. Check that all screw
connections are securely fastened. In particular, all
maintenance operations listed in the maintenance
schedule under the heading "Before each use"
must be carried out.
If necessary, consult a specialist dealer.
Preparing the area to be mowed
Before mowing, carefully examine the area. Remove
stones, sticks, bones, wires, toys and other objects
that may be ejected.
