Do not use the device at the edges of steep slopes or trenches, on steep slopes or embankments. 몇 CAUTION ● Familiarise your- self with the controls and the correct use of the device. Occupational safety DANGER ● Severe injuries when objects are flung by the cutting blade or when the cutting tool becomes entangled in wires or cords. Inspect the work area thoroughly for objects such as stones, sticks, metal, wires, bones or toys and remove these before using the device. ● Never use the device when persons, especially children, are within a radius of 15 m of the working ar- ea, because the danger exists of objects being flung out by the cutting blade. ● Danger of explo- sion. The device creates sparks that may ignite dust, gas or va- pours. Do not operate the device in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dusts. ● Severe accidents with children. Children can be attracted by the device and your activities.

If you need to pull the device away from a wall or obstacle, first pull downwards to prevent yourself from stumbling or pulling the device over your feet. ● Danger of coming into contact with the open blade or being hit by flung objects. Do not tip the device when starting the motor or while the motor is run- ning. If tipping is absolutely nec- essary, e.g. to make starting easier, then you can raise the front of the device by 5 cm. Press the handle carefully downwards for this. You must return the device to the normal operating position (i.e. all four wheels on the ground) before starting to mow. ● Knives that come into contact with a live ca- ble may energize exposed metal parts of the device and cause an electric shock. 몇 WARNING ● The blades on the device are sharp. Wear stur- dy protective gloves and work carefully when installing, replac- ing, cleaning or checking the seating of screws. ● Replace worn or damage parts as a complete set to main- tain the correct balance. ● En- sure that the device is in a safe condition by regularly checking that all bolts, nuts and screws are screwed tight. ● Replace any worn or damaged parts be- fore operating the device. ● Never use the device if the on/ off switch on the handle does not switch on and off correctly. ● Do not forcefully operate the device. ● Stop the motor, in or- der to stop the blade when transporting the device to and from the mowing area or when tipping the device for crossing ground that is not covered with grass. ● Stop the blade before crossing gravel surfaces. ● Nev- er use the device with defective or absent protective devices, such as e.g. deflectors and/or the grass catcher. ● Do not bring your hands or feet in the vicinity of, or underneath rotating parts. Switch the motor on according to the operating instructions. ● Never lift or carry the device while the motor is running. ● Un- even terrain carries an in- creased risk of slipping and accidents. Avoid holes, furrows, uneven areas, stones and other hidden objects. ● Start the de- vice only when you are posi- tioned in the safe area behind the handle.English 19 All four wheels are on the ground.

Before removing a blockage or cleaning the ejection chute. Before checking, cleaning or working on the device. After hitting a foreign object. First check the device for damage and repair any dam- age before restarting the de- vice. Before removing the grass catcher or the grass ejection chute cover. When the device starts to vi- brate unusually. Immediately check the device: – For loose parts. Tighten any loose parts if necessary. – For damage, especially to the blade. Repair or replace any damaged parts. 몇 CAUTION ● Check the grass catcher regularly for wear and tear. ATTENTION ● Take care to en- sure that the motor control cable is not jammed or damaged in any other way during installation or when folding the handle. Residual risks 몇 WARNING ● Certain residual risks remain present, even when the device is operated in the prescribed manner. The following dangers can be present when using the device: Vibration can cause injuries. Use the correct tools for the job, use the handles provided and restrict the working time and hazard exposure time. Noise can cause hearing inju- ries. Wear hearing protection and limit the duration of expo- sure. Injuries through contact with the blades. Injuries due to flung objects. Risk reduction 몇 CAUTION ● Using the device for longer pe- riods can cause poor circula- tion in the hands due to vibrations. A general period of use cannot be set, because this depends on several influ- encing factors:20 English Personal tendency to suffer from poor circulation (fre- quently cold fingers, tingling sensation in the fingers) Low ambient temperature. Wear warm gloves to protect your hands. Holding the device too tightly hindering blood circulation. Continuous operation is more harmful than operation inter- rupted by work breaks. You should see a doctor if us- ing the device regularly and for lengthy periods of time, and in the event of repeated occur- rences of symptoms such as tingling in the fingers or cold fingers.

Operation General information on handling the lawnmower The run time of the battery depends on several factors: The condition, length and density of the grass The cutting height setting The maximum surface performance, depending on the state of the grass, with a 5 Ah battery pack: approx. 650 m

The results of the mowing process can be optimised as follows: Cut at a maximum of one third of the grass height. Reduce the speed at which push the device when mowing tall grass. Note Do not mow wet grass. Wet grass sticks to the under- side of the lawnmower and prevents correct collection of the grass in the grass catcher or ejection of the grass.
