EMERGENCY STOPPING
If you have turned the key (46) and the lawnmower
fails to stop, do not panic - there are two other safe
stopping methods available for you to try. Do not
put fingers or hands anywhere near the cutting
deck.
The safest method is to wheel the lawn mower to a
safe area and allow the lawn mower to continue to
run until the fuel has been all used up.
An alternative to this where the user is confident, is to remove the spark plug
cap by pulling it from the spark plug (27) (Fig AG). This removes the engines
ability to fire and run.
However it is recommended to wear a rubber glove when grasping the spark
plug cap as a small electric shock is possible when pulling the cap off.
Ensure you feel confident to do this . If not, simply allow the lawnmower to run
out of fuel.
CAUTION: The spark plug may be hot.
Persons with heart conditions or any medical condition which can be affected
by electric shock should not attempt this method.
Do not attempt to restart the lawnmower and contact your local service agent
and book a repair of the product.
Do NOT lift the lawn mower. Do NOT tilt the lawn mower.
Do NOT leave the running lawn mower unattended.
Do NOT put hands under the running lawn mower under any circumstances.
Mowing advice
1. Before mowing always check and clear the grassed area for all foreign
objects, especially solid ones semi concealed in the ground such as rocks,
stumps and garden stakes.
2. Sharp blades cut cleanly and efficiently, if the blades are dull it will tear the
grass. This will result in the ends turning brown. When the blades no longer
cut cleanly either sharpen them or replace them.
