occurring to other people or their property.
■ Tragic accidents can occur if the operator
is not alert to the presence of children.
Children are often attracted to the product
and the mowing activity. Never assume
that children will remain where you last saw
them.
■ Keep children out of the mowing area and
under the watchful care of a responsible
adult other than the operator, be alert and
turn the product off if a child enters the
area.
■ Use extra care when approaching blind
corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects
including overhanging shrubs, which may
block your view.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
■ Power plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
■ Avoid unintentional starting. Always check
that the switch is in off position before
plugging in the product to the power supply.
Do not carry a plugged in product with your
finger on the switch.
■ Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There
is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed or grounded.
■ Do not expose the product to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering an appliance
will increase the risk of electric shock.
■ Electrical power should be supplied via
a residual current device (RCD) with a
tripping current of not more than 30 mA.
■ Before use check the supply and extension
cord for signs of damage or aging. If the cord
becomes damaged during use, disconnect
the cord from the supply immediately. Do
not touch the cord before disconnecting
the supply. Do not use the product if the
cord is damaged or worn.

If you need to use an extension cord
ensure it is suitable for outdoor use and
has a current capacity rating sufficient to
supply your product. The extension cord
cable should be marked with either "H05
RN-F" or "H05 VV-F". Check it before every
use for damage, always uncoil it during
use because coiled cords can overheat.
Damaged extension cords should not be
repaired, they should be replaced with an
equivalent type.
Make sure the power cord is positioned so
that it cannot be damaged by the cutting
means and will not be stepped on, tripped
over or otherwise subjected to damage or
stress.
Never pick up or carry the product by the
electric cable.
Never pull by the power cord to disconnect
from the power supply.
Keep the power cord away from heat, oil,
and sharp edges.
Make sure the voltage is correct for your
product. A nameplate on the product
indicates the product's voltage. Never
connect the product to an AC voltage that
differs from this voltage.
Always ensure the cord from the handlebar
to the mower body is never trapped,
pinched, or otherwise damaged during
assembly or handle folding. Never apply
power to the mower if this cable is damaged.
Bring the product to an authorised service
centre for professional repair.
A power spike causes voltage fluctuations
and may affect other electrical products in
the same power line. Connect the product
to a power supply with an impedance equal
or less than 0.452Ω - for RLM18E40H to
minimize voltage fluctuations. Contact
your electric power supplier for further
clarification.
LAWN MOWER SAFETY WARNINGS
Before using, always visually inspect to
ensure blades, blade bolts, and cutter
assembly are not worn or damaged.
Replace worn or damaged blades and
