Important Safe Operation Practices

Children

Tragic accidents can occur if operator is not alert to presence

of children. Children are often attracted to mower and mowing

activity. They do not understand the dangers. Never assume that

children will remain where you last saw them.

Keep children out of the mowing area and under watchful 1.

care of a responsible adult other than the operator.

Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters the area.2.

Before and while moving backwards, look behind and 3.

down for small children.

Use extreme care when approaching blind corners, 4.

doorways, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure

your vision of a child who may run into the mower.

Never allow children under 14 years old to operate a power 5.

mower. Children 14 years old and over should read and

understand operation instructions and safety rules in this

manual and should be trained and supervised by a parent.

Operation

General Operation:

Read this operator’s manual carefully in its entirety before 1.

attempting to assemble this machine. Read, understand,

and follow all instructions on the machine and in the

manual(s) before operation. Be completely familiar with

the controls and the proper use of this machine before

operating it. Keep this manual in a safe place for future and

regular reference and for ordering replacement parts.

This machine is a precision piece of power equipment, 2.

not a plaything. Therefore, exercise extreme caution at all

times. Your unit has been designed to perform one job: to

mow grass. Do not use it for any other purpose.

Don’t force lawn mower — it will do the job better and 3.

safer at the rate for which it was designed.

Never allow children under 14 years old to operate this 4.

machine. Children 14 years old and over should read and

understand the instructions in this manual and should

be trained and supervised by a parent. Only responsible

individuals who are familiar with these rules of safe

operation should be allowed to use this machine.

Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to be 5.

used. Remove all stones, sticks, wire, bones, toys and other

foreign objects which could be tripped over or picked

up and thrown by the blade. Thrown objects can cause

serious personal injury. Plan your mowing pattern to avoid

discharge of material toward roads, sidewalks, bystanders

and the like. Also, avoid discharging material against a wall

or obstruction which may cause discharged material to

ricochet back toward the operator.

To help avoid blade contact or a thrown object injury, 6.

stay in operator zone behind handles and keep children,

bystanders and pets at least 75 feet from mower while it is

in operation. Stop machine if anyone enters area.

Always wear safety glasses or safety goggles during 7.

operation and while performing an adjustment or repair

to protect your eyes. Thrown objects which ricochet can

cause serious injury to the eyes.

Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and close-fitting 8.

slacks and shirts. Shirts and pants that cover the arms

and legs and steel-toed shoes are recommended. Never

operate this machine in bare feet, sandals, slippery or light

weight (e.g. canvas) shoes.

Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts or under 9.

cutting deck. Contact with blade can amputate hands and

feet.

A missing or damaged discharge cover can cause blade 10.

contact or thrown object injuries.

Many injuries occur as a result of the mower being pulled 11.

over the foot during a fall caused by slipping or tripping.

Do not hold on to the mower if you are falling; release the

handle immediately.
