[. . . ] Do not operate the engine in a confined space where dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect. â· Mow only in daylight or in good artificial light. Always be sure of your footing on slopes. â· For wheeled rotary machines, mow across the face of slopes, never up and down. Use extreme caution when reversing or pulling the lawnmower towards you. Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the equipment is in safe working condition. â· Never store the equipment with petrol in the tank inside a building where fumes may reach an open flame or spark. â· Allow the engine to cool before storing in any enclosure. â· To reduce the fire hazard, keep the engine, silencer, battery compartment and petrol storage area free of grass, leaves, or excessive grease.

Put grass catcher frame into grass bag with stiff part of bag on the bottom. The grass catcher is secured to the lawn mower housing when the rear door is lowered onto the grass catcher frame. Do not drag the bag when emptying, it will cause unnecessary wear. The mower can be set to different cutting levels. Adjust to desired cutting level by means of the lever at each wheel. Move the lever towards the wheel and set the cutting level. Fill the tank with petrol, not oil-blended. Both lead-free and lead-containing petrol may be used. Do not fill with petrol while the engine is running. To start a cold engine, push primer (3) times before trying to start.
