VIBRATIONS
• A high level of vibrations and long periods of exposure are factors that contribute to the medical condition known
as "white finger" (Raynaud's phenomenon). In order to reduce the risk of white finger/toe disease, it is necessary
to take these recommendations into account:
-
Always wear gloves.
-
Always be sure your hands stay warm.
-
Take frequent breaks.
-
Always hold the machine firmly by the handles.
• If you detect some of the symptoms of white finger/toe disease, consult your doctor immediately.

WORK AREA SAFETY

• Do not switch the machine in explosive spaces, or in the presence of flammable and/or explosive substances such
as liquids, gas and powders. Electric machines create sparks that can ignite powders or fumes.
• Do not start the machine in a room or indoor area. Exhaust gases and fuel fumes contain carbon monoxide and
dangerous chemicals.
• The area within a 15 meters radius around the machine must be considered a risk zone where nobody should
enter while the machine is in operation (safety zone). When necessary, use tapes and warning signs to mark the
safety zone.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating this machine. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
• When the work must be carried out simultaneously by two or more people, always check the presence and
location of others in order to keep sufficient distance to ensure safety.
• Keep the work area clean and work only in a well-lit area. Only use this machine in daylight or in good artificial
light. Do not use this machine at night, with fog or with reduced visibility that does not allow you to see the work
area clearly.
• Check the work area before mowing the lawn and remove any objects such as stones, wood, etc. that may be
projected by the lawn mower or it may otherwise cause injuries.
MAINTENANCE, TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE SAFETY
• Use this machine, accessories, supplies, etc. in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended,
taking into account the working conditions and the work to be carried out.
• Check that all safety elements are installed and in good condition.
• Do not force this machine. Use this machine for the correct application. The use of the correct machine for the
type of work to be done will allow you to work better and safer.
• Carry out periodic maintenance of the machine. Do not attempt any maintenance or repair work that is not
described in the instruction manual. We recommend that maintenance and repairs not described in this manual
be carried out by the Official Technical Service only.
• Do not clean the equipment with solvents, flammable liquids or hard abrasives.
• Inspect the machine before each use and check that it is not misaligned, that there are not loose or jammed parts,
nor wear or damage that may affect proper operation of the machine. If the machine is damaged, have it repaired
by an authorised technical centre before using it again.
• Keep cutting instruments sharp and clean. Good maintenance of cutting elements reduces the chances of
incidents by being easier to control.
• Spare parts must be original to ensure that the equipment preserves its safety.
