Please keep all the warnings and instructions for future reference.

Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these instructions to use the machine.

Local regulations may restrict the age of the operator.

Never use the machine when bystanders, especially children, or pets are in the surroundings.

Never use the machine if the user is tired or unwell, or has taken medicine, drugs, alcohol or substances which may slow his reflexes and compromise his judgement.

Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to other people or their property.

It is the user's responsibility to assess the potential risk of the area where work is to be carried out, and to take all the necessary precautions to ensure his own safety and that of others, particularly on slopes or rough, slippery and unstable ground.

In the event of changes in ownership or loan of the machine, make sure the future user reads the instructions for use provided in this manual.

Never carry children or other passengers on the machine: they might fall off and be seriously injured or inhibit safe use of the machine.

The operator of a machine must carefully follow the driving instructions, particularly:

a. the need for care and concentration when using machines;
b. that control of a machine sliding on a slope will not be regained by the application of the brake. The main cause behind a loss of machine control are:

• insufficient wheel grip;
- being driven too fast;
- inadequate braking;
- the type of machine is unsuitable for its task;
- lack of awareness of the effect of ground conditions, especially slopes;
- Incorrect use of the machine as a towing vehicle;

The machine is equipped with a series of safety microswitches and devices which must never be removed, altered or tampered with. Removing these devices invalidates the warranty and the manufacturer declines any responsibility. Always check the safety devices work before using the machine.

3.2 PREPARATION

• When using the machine always wear sturdy, slip-resistant footwear and long trousers.
• Never activate the machine when barefoot or wearing open-toe sandals.
• Do not wear chains, bracelets, cumbersome clothing with strings or ties.
• Tie back long hair. Always wear hearing protectors.
• Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to be used and remove all objects which may be thrown by the machine (stones, sticks, metal wire, bones, etc.)

CAUTION: DANGER! The fuel is highly flammable.

a. store fuel in containers specifically designed for this purpose;
b. refuel using a funnel and outdoors only. Do not smoke while refuelling or whenever handling the fuel;
c. Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the cap of the fuel tank or add fuel while the engine is running or when the engine is hot;
d. If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine but move the machine away from the area of spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition until the fuel has evaporated and the fumes dispersed;
e. Always replace caps of fuel tanks and container securely.

Replace faulty silencers.

Before using, always carry out a visual inspection, particularly of the cutting device, seeing that the screws and cutting devices are not worn or damaged. Replace a worn or damaged cutter blade and screws as a set to preserve balance.

Any repair shall be performed by an authorized service centre.

Check the condition of the battery at frequent intervals. Replace if damages to the casing, cover or terminals are found.

3.3 DURING OPERATION

Never start the engine in a confined area where hazardous carbon monoxide gases can build up.

All starting operations have to be effected in an open or well ventilated area!

Always remember that exhaust gases are toxic!

Mow only in daylight or with good artificial light in good visibility conditions.

Keep persons, children and animals away from the working area.

If possible, avoid mowing wet grass. Avoid working in the rain and when there is a thunderstorm risk. Do not use the machine in bad weather, especially if there is a risk of lightning.

Before starting the engine, disengage the cutter blade or the PTO and put the gear into neutral.

Take special care when approaching obstacles which may obscure your vision.

Apply the parking brake when you park the machine.

The machine may not be driven on slopes greater than 10^ (17%), in any direction.

Remember there is no such thing as a "safe" slope. Travel on grass slopes requires particular care. To avoid roll-over of losing control of the machine:

a. do not stop or start suddenly when going up or downhill;
b. engage the drive slowly and always keep the machine in gear, especially when travelling downhill;
c. machine speeds should be kept low on slopes and during tight turns;
d. Beware of humps, hollows and other hidden dangers;
e. Never mow across the face of the slope. When mowing on a slope, proceed up and down the slope as opposed to across it, taking great care when changing direction that the first wheels do not hit obstacles (such as stones, branches, roots, etc.), that may cause the machine to slide sideways, roll over or otherwise cause loss of control.

Reduce speed before any change of direction on slopes and always engage the parking brake before leaving the machine stopped and unattended.

exercise caution in the proximity of cliffs, ditches or embankments. The machine may overturn if a wheel drives over the edge or the edge gives way.

Exercise maximum caution when reversing and working in reverse. Look behind you both before and during reversing to make sure there are no obstacles.

Use care when pulling loads or using heavy equipment:

a. use only approved drawbar hitch points;
b. limit loads to those you can safely control;
c. Do not make any sudden turns. Use care when reversing;
d. use counterweight(s) or wheel weights whenever advised in the instructions manual.

Disengage the cutter blade or PTO and lift the cutting deck assy to its highest position when crossing grass-free areas or when moving from one area to another.

Look out for traffic when using the machine near the road.

CAUTION! The machine has not been approved for use on public roads. It has to be used (as indicated by the highway code) in private areas closed to traffic.

Never use the machine if the safe-guards are damaged.

Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts. Keep clear of the discharge opening at all times.

Do not leave the machine on high grass with the engine running to avoid the risk of starting a fire.

When using accessories, always direct the discharge chute away from people.

Only use accessories approved by the machine manufacturer.

Do not use the machine if the accessories/tools are not installed in the correct places. Driving without accessories may adversely effect machine stability.

Take care when using grass collectors and other accessories which may alter machine stability, especially when working on a slope.

Do not change the engine governor settings or overspeed the engine.

Do not touch engine components which get hot during use. Burns hazard.

Disengage the cutter blade or the PTO, set the engine to the idle position, stop the engine and remove the key (make sure that all moving parts have come to a complete stop):

a. whenever you leave the machine unattended or leave the driver'r seat.
b. before removing the jamming cause or unclogging the collector channel;
c. before checking, cleaning or working on machine;
d. after striking a foreign object. Inspect the machine for damage and make repairs before restarting and operating the machine;

Disengage the cutter blade or the PTO and stop the engine (make sure that all moving parts have come to a complete stop):

a. Before refuelling;
b. Every time you remove the grass collector sack or put it back on;
c. adjusting the cutting height, assuming this operation cannot be done from the driver's seat.

Disengage the cutting blade or the PTO during transport or whenever the machine is not being used.

Reduce the throttle setting before stopping the engine. turn the fuel off at the conclusion of mowing, following the instructions in the manual.

Take care with multiple blade cutting decks as one rotating blade may cause other blades to rotate.

WARNING - In the event of failures or accidents when working with the machine, stop the engine immediately and move the machine away to avoid causing further damage; in the event of accidents with injuries to operators or third parties, take the first aid measures which are most appropriate to deal with the situation and contact a health care facility for the necessary treatment. Carefully remove any debris which could cause damage or injury to persons or animals if ignored.

CAUTION! The noise and vibration levels shown in these instructions are

the maximum levels for use of the machine.
