•  

Do not mow near drop-offs, 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.

•  

Do not use grass catcher on steep 
slopes.

Tragic accidents can occur if the op er a tor 
is not alert to the presence of children.  
Children are often attracted to the ma-
 chine and the mowing activity.  

Never as-

sume 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 machine off if children 

enter the area.

•   Before and when backing, look behind 

and 

down for small children. 

•   Never carry children.  They may fall off 

and be seriously injured or interfere with 
safe machine operation.

•   Never allow children to operate the 

machine.

•   Use extra care when approaching blind 

corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects 
that may obscure vision.

•   Use extra care in handling gasoline and 

other fuels.  They are fl ammable and 
vapors are explosive.

•   Be sure the area is clear of other people 

before mowing. Stop machine if anyone 
enters the area.

•   Never carry passengers or children 

even with the blades off.

•   Do not mow in reverse unless ab so -

lute ly necessary. Al ways look down and 
behind before and while backing.

•   Never carry children. They may fall off 

and be seriously injured or interfere with 
safe machine operation.

•   Keep children out of the mowing area 

and under the watchful care of another 
responsible adult.

- 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 fl ame, such as a 

water heater.

•   Never run a machine inside a closed 

area.

•   Keep nuts and bolts, especially blade 

attachment bolts, tight and keep equip-
ment in good condition.

•   Never tamper with safety devices.  

Check their proper op er a tion regularly.

•   Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or 

other debris build-up. 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 run ning.

•   Grass catcher components are subject 

to wear, dam age, and deterioration, 
which could expose moving parts or 
allow objects to be thrown.  Frequently 
check com po nents and replace with 
manufacturer's rec om mend ed parts, 
when nec es sary.

•   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.  Ad-

just and service as required. 

•   Be alert and turn machine off if children 

enter the area.

•   Before and when backing, look behind 

and down for small children.

•   Mow up and down slopes (15° Max), not 

across.

•   Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree 

limbs, etc.

•   Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven 

terrain could overturn the machine. Tall 
grass can hide obstacles.

•   Use slow speed. Choose a low gear 

so that you will not have to stop or shift 
while on the slope.
