7. 
DO NOT MOVE STEERING CONTROL 
LEVERS from forward position to 
reverse position rapidly. The speed 
and/or direction of travel is affected 
instantly by movement of the Steering 
Control Levers. 
8. 
DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO 
OPERATE MOWER. Do not allow 
others who have not had instruction to 
operate mower. 
9.    ALWAYS TURN ENGINE OFF AND
 
REMOVE KEY before leaving the mower to 
prevent children and inexperienced operators 
from starting the engine. Never leave the 
mower unattended with engine running. 
Always wait for all moving parts and all sounds 
to stop before leaving operator's seat. 
10.        WEAR STURDY, ROUGH-SOLED
 
WORK SHOES AND CLOSE-FITTING 
SLACKS AND SHIRTS. Never operate 
mower in bare feet, sandals or sneakers. 
11.        NEVER CARRY PASSENGERS.
 
12.        KNOW THE AREA YOU ARE TO
 
MOW. Watch for hidden danger such as rocks, 
roots, sticks, holes, bumps, and drop-offs, etc. 
Before mowing, pick up all debris in area to be 
mowed. Sharp and hard objects can be 
propelled at a high speed and can act like 
shrapnel. Walk through tall grass BEFORE 
MOWING to make sure there are no hidden 
dangers. Mow higher than desired in tall grass 
to expose any hidden objects and/or 
obstacles, clean the area, and then mow to the 
desired height. 
13.        NEVER REFUEL A MOWER
 
INDOORS. Allow the engine time to cool 
before refueling. Unseen vapors may be 
ignited by a spark. Always clean up spilled 
gasoline. Never run the engine indoors in a 
garage or any other closed building. Allow 
engine to cool before storing in any enclosure. 
The engine exhaust and gasoline fumes are 
dangerous. 
14.        NEVER REMOVE THE FUEL CAP or
 
add gasoline to a running or hot engine that 
has not been allowed to cool for 
2
 
several minutes after running. Always 
make sure the gas cap is in place. 
15.        DO NOT SMOKE AROUND THE MOWER 
or the gasoline storage container. Gasoline 
fumes can easily ignite. 
16.        KEEP GASOLINE IN A WELL-
VENTILATED AREA away from your living 
quarters and in tightly-capped safety cans. 
Never store mower with gasoline in the tank 
inside a building where fumes may reach 
open flame or spark. 
17.        DISENGAGE BLADES, STOP ENGINE 
AND REMOVE IGNITION KEY before any 
servicing. Be sure all moving parts and all 
sounds have stopped. Let engine cool and 
disconnect the spark plugs so the engine 
cannot start by accident. A SLIGHT 
ROTATION OF THE BLADES COULD 
START THE ENGINE. 
18.   KEEP ALL NUTS, BOLTS, AND
 
SCREWS TIGHT to be sure equipment is 
in safe working condition, especially blade 
mounting bolts. 
19.        VEHICLE SHOULD BE STOPPED
 
AND INSPECTED FOR DAMAGE after 
striking a foreign object and the damage 
should be repaired before restarting and 
operating the equipment. Stop immediately 
and check for damage or loose parts if 
mower should start vibrating. 
20.        DISENGAGE BLADES BEFORE 
DRIVING ACROSS WALKS or
 
projecting objects.
