Never remove the cap of the fuel tank or add fuel while the engine is running or when the engine is hot. ­ If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine but move the machine away from the area of spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition until the fuel has evaporated and the vapour dispersed. [. . . ] ­ use an appropriate number of people for the weight of the machine and the characteristics of the vehicle or the place where it has to be placed or collected. For instructions regarding the engine and the battery (if supplied), read the relevant manuals. 2 To start the engine, follow the instructions in the engine booklet and then pull the blade brake lever (1) towards the handle and give a sharp pull on the starter cable knob (2). 3 The lawn will look better if it is always cut to the same height and in alternate directions. 4 When you have finishing mowing, release the brake lever (1) and disconnect the spark plug cap (2). WAIT FOR THE BLADE TO STOP before carrying out any type of work on the machine. NOTE ­ The machine can be supplied with some of the components already fitted. 1 Return the lower part of the handle, which is made up of two pre-assembled elements (1), to its working position and lock into place using the lower knobs (2).
