be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric

shock, and personal injury, including the following:

This cutting machine is capable of amputating

hands and feet and throwing objects. Failure to

observe the following safety instructions could

result in serious injury or death.

General Operation

Read, understand, and follow all instructions on

the machine and in the manual(s) before starting.

Prevent unintended starting. Ensure the switch is

in the off position before inserting battery pack.

Inserting the battery pack into machines that have

the switch on invites accidents.

Keep hands and feet away from cutting area. Keep

clear of the discharge opening at all times.

Only allow responsible adults who are familiar

with the instructions to operate this machine. This

tool is not intended for use by persons (including

children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental

capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge.

edges sharp and clean for best and safest

performance.

Follow instructions for lubricating and changing

accessories.

Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and

grease.

Objects struck by the lawn mower blade can

cause severe injuries to persons. Clear the area of

objects such as rocks, wire, toys, etc., which could

be thrown by the blade prior to each mowing. Stay

behind the handle when the motor is running.

If lawn mower strikes a foreign object, follow

these steps:

• Stop lawn mower. Release the switch.

• Remove battery pack.

• Inspect for damage.

• Repair any damage before restarting and

operating the lawn mower.

6Lawn Mower Model LM400

Important Safety Instructions

Always inspect all guards, shields and safety

devices prior to each use. Do not operate machine

without the entire grass catcher, discharge guard,

rear guard, or other safety protective devices in

place and working.

Do not tilt the machine when starting or switching

on the motor, except if the machine has to be

tilted for starting in long grass. In this case, do not

tilt it more than absolutely necessary and tilt only

the part which is away from the operator.

Always ensure that both hands are in the

operating position before returning the machine to

the ground.

Switch on the motor according to the instructions

with feet well away from rotating parts.

Never leave a running machine unattended.

Stop the motor, wait until the blade comes to a

complete stop and remove the battery before

cleaning the machine, removing grass catcher, or

unclogging the discharge guard.

Operate machine only in daylight or good artificial

light.

Do not operate machine while under the influence

of alcohol or drugs.

Do not use battery-operated lawn mower in rain.

Avoid Dangerous Environment –Don’t use lawn

mowers in damp or wet locations.

Never operate mower in wet grass. Wet grass may

cause the operator to slip. Always be sure of your

footing; walk, never run.

If the machine should start to vibrate abnormally,

stop the motor and check for the cause

immediately. Vibration is generally a warning of

trouble.

Use Right Appliance – Do not use lawn mower for

any job except that for which it is intended.

Don’t Force Lawn Mower – It will do the job better

and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

Don’t Overreach – Keep proper footing and

balance at all times.

Stay Alert – Watch what you are doing. Use

common sense. Do not operate lawn mower when

you are tired.

See manufacturer’s instructions for proper

operation and installation of accessories. Only

the accessories and attachments originally

provided with the lawn mower are approved by

the manufacturer.

Always store the lawn mower in a cool, dry

place and out of direct sunlight. Long exposure

to sunlight and UV rays can degrade plastics

overtime, potentially causing guards to fail.

Slope Operation

Slopes are a major factor related to slip and

fall accidents, which can result in severe injury.

Operation on all slopes requires extra caution. If

you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it.

Mow across the face of slopes; never up and

down. Exercise extreme caution when changing

direction on slopes.

Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other

hidden objects. Uneven terrain could cause a slip

and fall accident. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

Avoid mowing on wet grass or excessively steep

slopes (> °). Poor footing could cause a slip and

fall accident.

Exercise extreme caution when changing direction,

especially on slopes.

Do not mow near drop offs, ditches, or

embankments. You could lose your footing or

balance.

Children

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not

alert to the presence of children. Children are

often attracted to the machine and the mowing

activity. Never assume that children will remain

where you last saw them.

Remove the safety key whenever you leave or

store the machine. Store in a secure and locked-

up place – out of reach of children.

Keep children out of the mowing area and under

the watchful care of a responsible adult other

than the operator.

Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters the

area.

Adjusting the Cutting Height (Fig. D)

Your lawn mower is equipped with a central height

adjustment system, offering six height settings.

The settings are approximately  in ( mm),

 / in ( mm),  / in ( mm),  / in ( mm),

 / in ( mm), and  in ( mm). The actual

cutting height may vary slightly.

To adjust the cutting height of the machine,

position the lever () to the desired height position

(Fig. D). The numbers indicated on the body of the

machine (, , , , , ) indicates the approximate

cutting height of the machine in that position. The

RÈGLES DE SÉCURITÉ POUR LES TONDEUSES À

GAZON POUSSÉES

AVERTISSEMENT : si vous utilisez des tondeuses

sans fil, respectez toujours les consignes de

sécurité basiques suivantes afin de réduire le risque

d'incendie, d'électrocution et de blessure.

Cette machine tranchante est capable d'amputer les

mains et les pieds et de projeter des objets. Le non-

respect des consignes de sécurité suivantes peut

entraîner des blessures graves ou la mort.

Fonctionnement général

Lisez, assimilez et respectez toutes les consignes

indiquées sur la machine et dans le(s) manuel(s)

avant de l'utiliser.

Évitez toute mise en marche involontaire. Assurez-

vous que le commutateur est en position d'arrêt

avant d'insérer la batterie. Insérer une batterie dans

une machine dont le commutateur est en position de

marche peut provoquer des accidents.

Tenez toujours vos mains et pieds à bonne distance

de la zone de coupe. Restez toujours à l'écart de

l'orifice d'éjection.

Seuls des adultes responsables connaissant bien les

consignes peuvent utiliser cette machine. Cet outil

n'est pas destiné à être utilisé par des personnes (y

compris des enfants) ayant des capacités physiques,

sensorielles ou mentales réduites ou manquant

d'expérience et de connaissances.

Entretenez soigneusement la tondeuse. Maintenez la

lame bien affutée et propre pour une performance de

meilleure qualité et plus sûre.

Respectez les consignes de lubrification et de

remplacement des accessoires.

Gardez les poignées sèches et propres, sans huile ni

graisse.

Les objets heurtés par la lame de la tondeuse

peuvent provoquer des blessures graves. Par

conséquent, retirez de la zone tous les objets tels

que les pierres, câbles, jouets, etc. pouvant être

heurtés par la lame. Restez derrière la poignée

lorsque le moteur fonctionne.

Si la tondeuse heurte un corps étranger, procédez

comme suit :

• Arrêtez la tondeuse. Relâchez le contacteur.

• Retirez la batterie.

• Vérifiez si des dommages ont été causés.

• Si c'est le cas, réparez-les avant de redémarrer

la tondeuse.

Assurez-vous qu'il n'y a aucun enfant ni aucune

personne présents dans la zone avant de faire

fonctionner la machine. Arrêtez-la si quelqu'un

pénètre dans la zone. L'opérateur ou l'utilisateur est

responsable des accidents ou mises en danger de

tiers ou de leurs propriétés.

N'utilisez pas la machine si vous êtes pieds nus ou

portez des chaussures ouvertes. Portez toujours des

chaussures solides.

Portez une tenue appropriée. Ne portez pas de bijoux

ou de vêtements amples. Ils pourraient être happés

par des composants mobiles. L'utilisation de gants

en caoutchouc et de chaussures est recommandée

lorsque vous travaillez en extérieur. Portez un

pantalon long.

Portez toujours des lunettes de protection lorsque

vous utilisez la machine.

Portez toujours un masque de protection ou anti-

poussière si vous travaillez dans un environnement

poussiéreux.

Ne tondez jamais en tirant la tondeuse vers vous.

Relâchez le levier de contact pour arrêter la machine

et soyez très prudent lorsque vous reculez ou tirez

la machine vers vous. Regardez toujours par terre et

derrière vous avant et pendant que vous reculez.

Éloignez-vous toujours de la zone d'éjection lorsque

vous utilisez la machine. N'orientez jamais le

matériau éjecté vers une personne. Évitez d'éjecter le

matériau contre un mur ou un obstacle. Le matériau

pourrait ricocher et heurter l'opérateur.

Arrêtez la machine en relâchant le levier de contact

lorsque vous traversez des surfaces gravillonnées ou

non gazonnées.

Ne soulevez et ne portez jamais la machine lorsque

son moteur tourne.

Inspectez toujours tous les carénages, protections

et dispositifs de sécurité avant chaque utilisation.

Ne faites pas fonctionner la machine si le collecteur

d'herbe, la protection de l'éjection, la protection

arrière ou d'autres dispositifs de sécurité ne sont pas

intégralement installés et opérationnels.

Ne soulevez pas la machine lorsque vous démarrez

le moteur, sauf si la machine doit être soulevée pour

pouvoir démarrer dans l'herbe haute. Dans ce cas,

ne la soulevez pas plus que ce qui est absolument

20 Tondeuse à gazon LM400

Consignes de sécurité importantes

nécessaire et soulevez uniquement la partie éloignée

de l'opérateur.

Assurez-vous toujours que les deux mains sont en

position opérationnelle avant de reposer la machine

au sol.

Démarrez le moteur selon les instructions, en

éloignant vos pieds des pièces rotatives.

Ne laissez jamais une machine en marche sans

surveillance.

Arrêtez le moteur, attendez que la lame se soit

complètement arrêtée et retirez la batterie avant de

nettoyer la machine, de retirer le collecteur d'herbe

ou de désobstruer la protection de l'éjection.

Utilisez la machine uniquement de jour ou dans de

bonnes conditions d'éclairage artificiel.

N'utilisez pas la machine si vous êtes sous l'influence

de l'alcool ou de la drogue.

N'utilisez pas une tondeuse fonctionnant sur batterie

sous la pluie.

Évitez les environnements dangereux. N'utilisez pas

la tondeuse dans un endroit humide ou mouillé.

N'utilisez jamais la tondeuse dans de l'herbe

mouillée. L'herbe humide peut faire glisser

l'opérateur. Gardez toujours un bon équilibre ;

marchez et ne courez jamais.

Si la machine commence à vibrer anormalement,

arrêtez le moteur et cherchez immédiatement la

cause du problème. Les vibrations sont généralement

le signe d'un problème.

Choisissez le matériel adapté. N'utilisez pas la

tondeuse pour une tâche pour laquelle elle n'est pas

conçue.

Ne forcez pas sur la tondeuse. Elle accomplira

parfaitement sa tâche en toute sécurité à la vitesse

pour laquelle elle a été conçue.

Ne prenez pas de risques. Veillez en toutes

circonstances à prendre appui sur vos deux pieds et à

maintenir votre corps en équilibre.

Restez vigilant. Concentrez-vous sur votre travail.

Faites preuve de bon sens. N'utilisez pas la tondeuse

si vous êtes fatigué.

Consultez les consignes du fabricant relatives au bon

fonctionnement et à l'installation des accessoires.

Seuls les accessoires d'origine (fournis avec la

tondeuse) sont approuvés par le fabricant.

Stockez toujours la tondeuse dans un endroit frais

et sec, à l'abri de la lumière directe du soleil. Une

exposition prolongée aux rayons du soleil et aux UV

peut abîmer le plastique et réduire la performance

des protections.

Fonctionnement en pente

Les pentes constituent la principale cause des

glissades et chutes qui peuvent entraîner des

blessures graves. L'utilisation de la tondeuse dans

une pente, quelle qu'elle soit, nécessite la plus

grande prudence. Si vous n'êtes pas à l'aise sur une

pente, ne la tondez pas.

Passez la tondeuse perpendiculairement à la pente ;

jamais de haut en bas. Soyez extrêmement prudent

lorsque vous changez de direction sur une pente.

Faites attention aux trous, ornières, bosses, pierres

ou autres objets cachés. Un terrain irrégulier peut

provoquer une chute ou une glissade. Les herbes

hautes peuvent masquer des obstacles.

Évitez de tondre de l'herbe humide ou des pentes

excessivement raides (> °). Un mauvais équilibre

pourrait causer une glissade ou une chute.

Soyez extrêmement prudent lorsque vous changez de

direction, en particulier sur une pente.

Ne tondez pas à proximité de ravins, de fossés ou de

berges. Vous pourriez perdre l'équilibre.

Enfants

Des accidents tragiques peuvent se produire si

l'opérateur ne prête pas attention à la présence

d'enfants. Ces derniers sont souvent attirés par la

machine et la tonte. Ne supposez jamais qu'un enfant

va rester à l'endroit où vous l'avez vu pour la dernière

fois.

Retirez la clé de sécurité chaque fois que vous vous

éloignez de la machine ou que vous la remisez.

Stockez-la dans un lieu sûr et fermé, hors de portée

des enfants.

Veillez à ce que les enfants restent à l'écart de la

zone de tonte et soient surveillés par un adulte

responsable autre que l'opérateur.

Soyez vigilant et éteignez la tondeuse si un enfant

pénètre dans la zone.

Ne laissez jamais un enfant utiliser la machine.

Redoublez de vigilance à proximité d'un passage sans

visibilité, d'arbustes, d'arbres ou d'autres éléments

pouvant masquer la présence d'un enfant.

Maintenance

Retirez toujours la batterie avant de régler, nettoyer,

réparer ou stocker la machine afin d'éviter tout
