If you also use a robotic mower for lawn care, the following safety
instructions must be heeded with regard to the working area of the robotic
mower:
– Before working on these areas (mowing, scarifying etc.) always check
the range of the boundary wire.
– If the wires are laid in the ground they must be checked, no wires may
be visible, with particular attention necessary at the charging station.
– If the boundary wires are laid above ground they should be routed
tight directly on the ground and not lie loose in the grass. The wires
must be sufficiently fixed using boundary st aples, see the operating
manual.
– The boundary staples must not project, if this is the case push t hem
firmly in place.
– Remove any residual wires that are lying around before starting to
mow.
In the cases described above, there is a risk of the wire being pulled in and
wound up by the tool; this can lead to serious injury.

mow at right angles to the slope, never mow straight up or down. Please be
especially careful when you change direction when mowing on a slope.

• Do not mow excessively steep slopes! Mowing slopes always means additional
risks. Your lawnmower is powerf ul enough to mow on slopes with a gradient of up
to 46% (25° angle of slope). For safety reasons, however, we urgently recommend
you do not exploit this theoretical performance potential. Always make sure you
have a firm stance. Manually guided lawnmowers should never be used for slopes
with a gradient in excess of 26% (15° angle of slope). Stability may be lost.
