Work area/Machine
• Thoroughly inspect the entire work 
area and remove anything that could be 
thrown by the machine or damage the 
cutting device/rotating units (stones,
branches, iron wire, bones, etc.).
Internal combustion engines: fuel
DANGER! The fuel is highly flammable. 
• Keep the fuel in approved
containers, in a safe place, away from 
any naked lights or heat sources.
• Keep the containers and storage area free of
grass cuttings, leaves, or excessive grease.
• Keep the containers out of
the reach of children.
• Do not smoke when filling up with 
fuel or when handling the fuel.
• Use a funnel to top up with 
fuel only in the open air.
• Do not inhale fuel fumes.
• Never remove the tank cap or add 
fuel while the engine is running 
or when the engine is hot.
• Open the fuel tank slowly to allow the 
pressure inside to decrease gradually.
• Do not approach the tank opening with 
a naked flame to check its contents.
• If you have spilt some fuel, 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 fuel vapours have dissipated.
• Immediately clean up all traces of fuel 
spilt on the machine or on the ground.
• Replace caps of all fuel tanks 
and containers securely.
• Never start the machine in the same 
place in which you refilled it with fuel;  the 
engine must be started in an area at least 
3 metres from where you refuelled.
• If fuel is spilt on clothing, change
clothing before starting the engine.

2.3 DURING OPERATION

Work Area
• Do not operate the engine in a confined 
space where dangerous carbon 
monoxide fumes can develop. All starting 
operations have to be carried out in an
open or well ventilated area. Always 
remember that exhaust gases are toxic! 
• When starting up the machine, do not direct 
the silencer and therefore the exhaust
fumes towards flammable materials.
• Do not use the machine in environments at 
risk of explosion, in the presence of flammable 
liquids, gas or powder. Electrical contacts 
and mechanical friction can generate sparks 
that can ignite the powder or vapours. 
• Work only in daylight or with good artificial 
light in good visibility conditions. 
• Keep persons, children and animals away 
from the working area. Instruct another adult 
to supervise any children in the vicinity.
• Avoid working with wet grass, in the 
rain and when there is a risk of a 
thunderstorm, especially lightening.
• Pay careful attention to uneven ground 
(hills, dips), slopes, hidden hazards and
obstacles that could limit visibility.
• Be very careful near ravines, ditches 
or embankments. The machine could 
overturn if a wheel slides over the 
edge or if the earth gives way.
• Pay attention on sloping ground which 
requires particular care to prevent overturning 
or loss of control of the machine. The 
main reasons for loss of control are:
– Insufficient wheel grip
– Excessive speed
– Inadequate braking
– Type of machine unsuitable for its task
– Lack of awareness of the effect of 
ground conditions, especially slopes
– Incorrect use as a towing machine.
• Be careful of traffic when operating 
the machine close to public roads.
• To avoid the risk of fire, do not 
leave the machine standing in high 
grass with the engine running.
Behaviour
• When working behind the wheel, do 
not become distracted and maintain 
the required level of concentration.
• Exercise caution when reversing or 
moving backwards. Look behind you to 
make sure there are no obstacles before 
and during operations in reverse gear.
• Use care when pulling loads or 
using heavy equipment:
– Use approved draw-bar hitch 
points only when towing;
– Limit loads to those that can 
be handled safely;
– Do not turn sharply. Take 
care when reversing;
– Use counterweight(s) or wheel weights 
whenever advised in the owner's manual.
• Pay attention when using the grass catcher 
and attachments that can alter the stability 
of the machine, especially on slopes.
• Always keep hands and feet away 
from the cutting device, when starting 
and when using the machine.
