! Usually the noise emitted during mowing does not exceed the acoustic pressure and acoustic power
values specified in this user's manual (
and due to the condition of the terrain exceed the specified noise levels for a short time.
! The machine manufacturer recommends the use of hearing protection when operating the machine
because stressing the hearing organ with an excessive noise level or long term effects of noise may
lead to permanent hearing damage.
! Always pay full attention to driving and other activities performed with the machine. The most common
causes of loss of control over the machine are for example:
Loss of wheel traction.
Excessive speed, not adjusting speed to current conditions and terrain properties.
Sudden breaking where the wheels lock up.
Using the machine for purposes for which is was not designed.
2.1.5 After finishing work with the machine
! Always maintain the machine and its accessories clean and in good technical condition.
! The rotating blades are sharp and may cause injuries. Whenever handing the blades always use
protective gloves or wrap the blades.
! Regularly check the nuts and bolts securing the blades so that they are tightened with the appropriate
amount of torque (
6.3.6).
! Pay special attention to lock nuts. After the nut is loosened a second time its locking capability is
reduced and therefore it needs to be replaced with a new one.
! Regularly inspect all components and if necessary replace those that need to be replaced based on the
manufacturer's recommendations.
2.2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR WORK ON SLOPES
Slopes are the main cause of accidents, loss of control over the machine or subsequent roll-overs, which
may lead to serious injuries or death. Mowing on slopes always requires an increased level of attention.
If you are not sure, or it exceeds your ability, do not mow on slopes.
! Riding mowers can be used on slopes with a maximum incline up to 12° (21%).
! When changing direction increased care is needed. Do not turn on a slope unless it is absolutely
necessary.
! Watch out for holes, roots, uneven terrain. Uneven terrain may cause the machine to turn over. High
grass may conceal hidden obstacles. Therefore, remove all foreign objects from the area where you
wish to mow in advance.
! Select such a speed so that you do not need to stop when on a hill.
! Be very careful when attaching the grass catcher or making other connections. It may lead to a reduced
stability of the machine.
! Perform all movements on a slope slowly and smoothly. Do not make sudden changes to speed or
direction.
! Avoid starting up or stopping on a slope. In the event that the wheels lose traction, turn off the power
to the blades and drive slowly down the hill.
! Start driving very carefully and slowly when on a slope so that the machine does not "skip". Always
reduce the machine's driving speed before a slope, and especially when driving down a hill lower the
driving speed to minimum to take advantage of the braking effect of the transmission.
2.3 CHILD SAFETY
If the riding mower operator is not prepared for the presence of children then a tragic accident may
happen. The movement of a riding mower attracts the attention of children. Never assume that children
will remain in the location where you last saw them.
! Do not allow children without supervision in areas where you are mowing grass.
! Never allow children to operate this machine!
! Always be prepared - if children approach you then turn off the machine.
