Read the manual for full safety and warnings. Familiarize yourself with controls and emergency stops. Keep manual for reference. Avoid use near people, especially children or pets, and never operate when tired, ill, or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. Assess risks on slopes and unstable ground and take precautions. Wear slip-resistant footwear, long trousers, and earplugs. Avoid loose clothing, jewellery, and sandals. Tie back long hair. Inspect for hazards like stones or wires that could damage the mower or be thrown by the blade. Store fuel in suitable containers and refuel outdoors. Never refuel when the engine is hot or running. Regularly check the mower, especially the blade, and replace worn parts. Ensure safety levers and guards are functional. Mow in good visibility and keep people and pets away. Never operate without safety guards. Avoid mowing wet grass or in bad weather, especially thunderstorms. Maintain firm footing on slopes and mow across them, not up and down. Avoid slopes steeper than 20°. Be cautious near obstacles blocking visibility. Immobilize the blade when tilting or transporting the mower. Stay alert to nearby traffic. Start the engine carefully, keeping feet away from rotating parts. Never lift or transport the mower with the engine running. Do not disable safety systems or modify engine settings. Avoid burns by not touching hot engine parts. For powered models, disengage wheel drive before starting. Always turn off the engine and disengage the blade before transporting or performing maintenance. Disconnect the spark plug before cleaning or servicing. Wear gloves when handling or servicing the blade. Check safety guards regularly and replace if damaged. Never use damaged parts; replace with original parts. Store the mower out of children’s reach, away from heat or sparks. Allow the engine to cool before storing and empty the fuel tank outdoors. Check for leaks and keep the area clear of debris to reduce fire risk.
