roots, branches, stones, etc) that can cause the lawnmower to slide sideways or make you lose
control of it. Make sure on slopes you have a steady foothold.
• The lawnmower must never be used on slopes of over 20°, regardless of the mowing direction.
• You must be careful near ravines, ditches or embankments.
• Exercise extreme caution when operating on or crossing gravel drives, walks, or roads. Stay
alert for hidden hazards or traffic.
• Find and locate all fixed objects in the ground, such as sprinkler systems, poles, water valves,
bases for washing lines etc. Make sure that you check for hidden electrical cables or similar on
the surface of the lawn. ALWAYS run the machine around these objects. NEVER intentionally run
the machine over foreign objects.
• Pay the utmost attention when working on frozen ground as the machine may tend to skid.
• Do not work in the rain or when there is a thunderstorm or lightning risk. If there is bad weather
conditions, do not use the machine.
• Never run over gravel while the motor is running. There is a risk of being hit by stones.
• Switch the lawnmower off before tilting or transporting it, e.g. from/to lawn or over paths.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
