Safety Devices - Wolf Garten A 460 A SP HW Originalbetriebsanleitung

Operating instructions – Lawnmower with IC engine
The use of spare parts or
accessories that have not been
approved by the manufacturer can
represent a significant safety risk.
Have repairs performed exclusively
by a qualified technician or
specialist workshop. Ensure that
maintenance work is always
performed to schedule so that the
mower remains in a safe condition.
When working with the mower
When working with or on the
appliance you must wear protective
clothing. This includes:
– Safety shoes,
– trousers,
– close-fitting garments,
– hearing protection,
– protective goggles.
Wearing personal protective
equipment reduces the risk of
injuries. Avoid the wearing of loose
clothing or clothing with hanging
cords or belts. Working without ear
protection may result in loss of
hearing. Even when wearing ear
protection, include regular work
breaks to give your ears a rest.
All safety devices must be installed
on the appliance, and they must be
complete and in a fully functional
condition.
Do not make any changes to the

safety devices.

Operate the mower only in the
technical condition stipulated and
delivered by the manufacturer.
Never change the preset factory
engine settings.
Prevent naked flames and spark
formation, and do not smoke.
Notes on vibrations:
The impact of vibrations can cause
damage to nerves and disrupt
blood circulation in the hands and
arms.
– When working in cold
environments, wear warm
clothing and keep your hands
warm and dry.
– Take breaks.
– If you notice that the skin on your
fingers or hands is becoming
numb, tingling, painful or going
white in colour, cease working
with the machine and, if
necessary, seek medical
attention.
Before carrying out any work on
this mower
To prevent injury, before
performing any work on the
appliance (e.g. maintenance and
adjustments) and before
transporting it (e.g. lifting or
carrying):
– switch off the engine,
– remove the ignition key (if used),
– wait until all moving parts have
come to a complete stop and
the engine has cooled down,
– remove the spark plug connector
on the engine to prevent the
engine from being accidentally
started,
– which takes into account
additional safety information in
the engine manual.
After working with the device
Never leave the appliance without
switching off the engine and – if
used – without removing the
ignition key.
