A FEW WORDS ABOUT SAFETY
Your safety, and the safety of others, is very important. And using this
lawn mower safely is an important responsibility.

operating procedures and other information on labels and in this
manual. This information alerts you to potential hazards that could
hurt you or others.

hazards associated with operating or maintaining a lawn mower. You

including:
Safety Labels — on the lawn mower.
Safety Messages — preceded by a safety alert symbol
