are tired or ill or you are under the influ-
ence of drugs, alcohol or other medicati-
on. A moment of inattention whilst using
the device can result in serious injuries.
• This device is not intended for use by
people with restricted physical, sensory
or mental capabilities; those who do
not have sufficient experience in using
the device or knowledge of the device
must not use it unless they are super-
vised by an individual responsible for
their safety, or receive instructions from
this person on how to use the device.
• Children must be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the device.
• Never allow children or other people
who are unfamiliar with the instruction
manual to use the device. Local regula-
tions may specify the minimum age of
the user.
• Never mow if there are people, particu-
larly children or animals, nearby. Dis-
tractions can cause you to lose control
of the device.
• Remember that the user is responsible
for accidents involving other people or
their property.
• Observe noise protection rules and
other local regulations.
Preparations:
• Always wear slip-resistant shoes and
long trousers when mowing. Do not
mow barefoot or in light sandals. Loose
clothing, jewellery or long hair may get
caught in moving parts. Wearing suita-
ble clothing reduces the risk of injuries.
• Check the terrain on which the device
will be used and remove all objects
(e.g. stones, sticks, wires, toys) which
may be drawn into the device and
ejected.
• Warning: Petrol is highly flammable. Fire
or explosions can lead to severe burns:

- Store petrol only in the specially pro-
vided containers;
- Refuel only in open areas and never
smoke while refuelling the device;
- Petrol has to be added before star-
ting the engine. The fuel tank cap
must not be opened and petrol must
not be added while the engine is
running or the device is still hot.
- If there was an accidental petrol
spill, do not attempt to start the engi-
ne. Instead, remove the device from
the petrol contaminated surface. Do
not try to ignite the engine until all
petrol vapours have evaporated;
- If the fuel tank or other tank caps are
damaged, replace them for safety
reasons.
• Replace defective mufflers.
• Before use, always perform a visual
inspection to check whether the cutting
tools, fastening bolts and the entire
cutting unit are worn out or damaged.
Worn or damaged tools and bolts must
only be replaced as a set to prevent
imbalance.
• Take care when using devices with
several cutting tools as the movement
of one blade can lead to rotation of the
other blades.
• Use replacement and accessory parts
supplied or recommended by the ma-
nufacturer only. Using externally pro-
duced parts can cause injury, and void
any warranty claims.
Operation:
• Never let the internal combustion engi-
ne run in a confined space, as dange-
rous carbon monoxide can accumulate.
• Use the machine only in daylight or
with good artificial lighting. Working
in areas without lighting can result in
accidents.
