Warnschalter und Gefahrenschalter (Notstopschalter)
Seems to be a sophisticated mower! I just remember that a mower once burned - so maybe it didn't have the Notstopschalter..

Warnschalter und NOT-AUS-Schalter
Agree with previous answerer but I contend:
Warnschalter warns you an undesirable working condition like 'Unsufficient lubrication or 'Gas tank emptu soon'
whereas the other one says:
For God's sake, SWITCH OFF (because danger is imminent!)

Signallicht-Schalter
This is probably an orange flashing light on top of a commercial lawn mover. I dont think convential lawn movers have these. The switch does not do the warning, the light does. You find similar emergecy lights on tow trucks and snow plows.
Not-Aus-Schalter turn a machine off, for example if the lawn mover runs into a tree it would be wide to push the E-Stop push button, if you have one.
