The switch and safety devices installed in
the machine must not be removed or
bypassed. In particular, never secure the
motorstop lever or blade stop lever to the
handlebar (e.g. by tying it).
Caution – risk of injury!
Never put hands or feet on or
underneath rotating parts.
Never touch the rotating blade.
Always keep away from the discharge
opening.
Always observe the safety distance
provided by the handlebar. The handlebar
must always be installed correctly and
must not be modified. Never operate the
machine with the handlebar folded down.
Never attach any objects to the handlebar
(e.g. work clothing).
Only work during the day or with good
artificial light.
Do not operate the machine in the rain or
during thunder storms, particularly when
there is a risk of lightning strike.
The risk of accidents is higher if the ground
is damp due to increased danger of
slipping.
Particular caution should be exercised
during working in order to prevent slipping.
If possible, avoid using the machine when
the ground is damp.
Exhaust gases:
The machine generates
poisonous exhaust gases when
the engine is running. The
gases contain poisonous
carbon monoxide, a colourless and
odourless gas, as well as other pollutants.
The engine must never be operated in
closed or poorly ventilated spaces.
Starting:
Exercise care when starting the machine
and observe the instructions contained in
the section entitled "Operating the
machine" ( 13.). Starting the machine in
accordance with these instructions
reduces the risk of injury.
Risk of injury!
If the starter rope recoils at speed, the
hand and arm will be pulled towards the
engine faster than the starter rope can be
released. This kickback can result in
broken bones, crush injuries and sprains.
Keep your feet a safe distance from the
cutting tool when starting the machine.
The machine must not be tilted during
start-up.
The self-propulsion lever must not be
actuated when starting the engine.
RM 650 VS, RM 655 RS, RM 655 VS,
RM 655 YS: The mowing blade must not
be engaged when starting the engine.
Do not start the engine if the discharge
chute is not covered by the discharge flap
or the grass catcher box.
Working on slopes:
Always work across and back on slopes,
never up and down.
If the user loses control when mowing up
and down, there is a risk of being run over
by the machine.
Be particularly careful when changing
direction on a slope.
Always ensure good stability on slopes
and avoid mowing on excessively steep
slopes.
For safety reasons, the machine must not
be used on slopes with an inclination of
more than 25° (46.6%). Risk of injury!
A slope inclination of 25° corresponds to a
vertical height increase of 46.6 cm for a
100 cm horizontal distance.
In order to ensure an adequate oil supply
for the engine, the information in the
accompanying engine instruction manual
must be additionally observed when using
the machine on slopes.
Working:
Do not try to examine the blade
while the lawn mower is
operating. Never open the
discharge flap and/or remove
the grass catcher box when the mowing
blade is running. Rotating blades can
cause injury.
Danger to life through poisoning!
In the case of nausea, headache,
impaired vision (e.g. decreasing
field of view) hearing disorder,
dizziness, decreasing power of
concentration, stop working
immediately. These symptoms may
be caused by excessively high
exhaust gas concentrations.
Risk of injury!
Never place your hands or feet
above, underneath or on rotating
parts.
