Safety Precautions

Training

READ THIS MANUAL BEFORE USING THE C34 MOWER. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT

OPERATORS STUDY IT FOR THEIR OWN SAFETY.

THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS MUST BE TAKEN TO HELP PREVENT ACCIDENTS. A

CAREFUL OPERATOR WHO USES COMMON SENSE IS THE SAFEST OPERATOR.

Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with the controls and the proper use of the equipment.

Learn how to stop the mower quickly in an emergency.

Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these operating instructions to use the mower or its

attachments. Local regulations may restrict the age of the operator.

Be alert while people, especially children, or animals are nearby.

Bear in mind that the operator is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to other people or

their property.

Do not attempt to ride on the mower or carry passengers.

All operators should seek and obtain professional and practical instruction. Such instruction should

emphasise:

-The need for care and concentration while working with the C34 mower.

-The need to slow down when making tight turning manoeuvres, particularly on slopes. Failure

to take adequate care can affect stability leading to loss of control of the mower.

-Control of a machine sliding on a slope will not be regained by the application of the brake. The

main reasons for loss of control on a slope are:

-Insufficient grip between roller and ground.

-Being driven too fast.

-Lack of awareness of ground conditions.

Preparation

While operating the equipment always wear substantial footwear and long trousers. Do not operate

the equipment when barefoot or wearing open sandals.

Ear protection should be worn when the engine is running.

Eye protection should be worn whilst mowing.

Thoroughly inspect the area that is to be cut and remove all objects which are likely to cause

damage to the machine.

Never operate the mower unless all belt and chain guards are correctly in place and securely

fastened.

Before use check the bottom blade and cylinder. Replace or sharpen if necessary

Petrol is highly flammable, therefore:

-Store fuel in containers specially designed for this purpose.

-Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke while refuelling.

-Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the cap from the fuel tank or add petrol while

the engine is running or while the engine is hot. Allow the engine to cool for at least two

minutes before refuelling. Be aware that the engine exhaust silencer will remain hot for some

time after the engine is switched off.

-Do not attempt to start the engine if petrol is spilled or a smell of petrol is present. Move the

machine away from the area of spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition until the petrol

vapours have dissipated.

-Always use fresh fuel.

-Replace the fuel tank cap securely.
