6.1 SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
Before cleaning, maintenance or repair work, take out
the ignition key and read the relevant instructions. Wear suitable clothing
and strong gloves when dismantling and refitting the blades and in all
other hazardous situations for hands.
Never use the machine with worn or damaged parts.
Faulty or worn-out parts must always be replaced and not repaired. Only
use genuine spare parts: those that are not of an equivalent quality may
damage the machine or endanger the safety of yourself and others.
Never get rid of used oil, fuel or other pollutants in unautho-
rised places!

IFTING THE MACHINE VERTICALLY
If you need to have easy access to the lower part of the machine it is possible to
lift it vertically.
This operation can be dangerous. To perform it safety,
use a suitable lifting equipment. Assistance of other persons can be nec-
essary. In case of doubts, please contact your dealer.
Make sure that the tank does not contain
more than 2 litres of fuel and insert a block of
around 40 mm beneath the rear plate.
Lift the machine from the front, being careful
to hold on to parts that offer a firm grip, and
rest it on the points shown, taking care not to
damage the grass-catcher’s brackets.
Please make sure there are no leaks from the
engine oil filling cap.
Be sure of the good stability of the machine before car-
rying out any type of work on the machine and avoid operations which
may cause it to fall over.
