SAFETY RULES

DO NOT
•  Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, 

turn slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.

•  Do not mow near drop-off, ditches, or 

embankments. The mower could suddenly turn 

over if a wheel is over the edge of a cliff or ditch, 

or if an edge caves in.

•

Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction  

could cause sliding.

•

Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your 

foot on the ground.

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.
•

•  Keep children out of the mowing area and under

the watchful care of another responsible adult.

•  Be alert and turn off the machine if children enter

the area.

•  Before and when backing, look behind and

for small children.

•  Never carry children. They may fall off and be

seriously injured or interfere with safe machine 

operation.

•  Use extra care when approaching blind corners,

shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure 

vision.

•  The operation of any mower can result in foreign

objects thrown into the eyes, which can result 

in severe eye damage. Always wear safety 

glasses or eye shields while operating your 

mower or performing any adjustments or repairs. 

We recommend a wide vision safety mask over 

spectacles or standard safety glasses.

•  Use extra care in handling gasoline and other 

fuels. They are flammable and vapors are

explosive.

 

-  Use only an approved container.

 

-  Never remove gas cap or add fuel with 

the engine running. 

 

-  Allow engine to cool before refueling. 

 

-  Do not smoke.

 

-  Never refuel the machine indoors.

 

-  Never store the machine or fuel container 

inside where there is an open flame, such

as a water heater.

•  Never run a machine inside a closed area.
•  Keep nuts and bolts, especially blade attachment

bolts, tight and keep equipment in good condition.

•  Never tamper with safety devices. Check for

proper operation regularly.

•  Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other 

debris buildup. Clean oil or fuel spillage. Allow 

machine to cool before storing.

•  Stop and inspect the equipment if you strike an

object. Repair, if necessary, before restarting.

•  Never make adjustments or repairs with the

engine running.

•  Grass catcher components are subject to wear,

damage, and deterioration, which could expose 

moving parts or allow objects to be thrown. 

Frequently check components and replace 

with manufacturer’s recommended parts, when 

necessary.

•  Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the

blade(s) or wear gloves, and use extra caution

when servicing them.

•  Check brake operation frequently. Adjust and

service as shown in the Operator’s Manual.
