•   Shut the engine (motor) off and wait until 

the blade comes to complete stop before 
removing grass catcher.

•   Mow only in daylight or good artifi cial 

light.

•   Do not operate the machine while under 

the infl uence of alcohol or drugs.

•   Never operate machine in wet grass. 

Always be sure of your footing: keep a 
fi rm hold on the handle and walk; never 
run.

•   Disengage the self-propelled mech-

 a nism or drive clutch on mowers so 
equipped before starting the engine 
(motor).

•   If the equipment should start to vi brate 

abnormally, stop the engine (motor) and 
check immediately for the cause. Vibra-
tion is generally a warning of trouble.

•   Always wear safety goggles or safe ty 

glasses with side shields when op er at ing 
mower.

Slopes are a major factor related to slip 
and fall accidents which can result in 
severe injury. All slopes require extra cau-
tion. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not 
mow it.
DO:
•   Mow across the face of slopes: nev er 

up and down. Exercise extreme caution 
when changing direction on slopes.

•   Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree 

limbs, etc.

•   Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Tall 

grass can hide obstacles.

DO NOT:
•   Do not trim near drop-offs, ditches or 

embankments. The operator could lose 
footing or balance.

•   Do not trim excessively steep slopes.
•   Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced foot-

ing could cause slipping.

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 assume 

that children will remain where you last 
saw them.
•  Keep children out of the trimming area 

and under the watchful care of an oth er 
re spon si ble adult.

•   Be alert and turn machine off if chil dren 

enter the area.

•   Before and while walking back wards, 

look behind and 

down for small chil dren. 

•   Never allow children to operate the ma-

chine.

•   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.

- 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 machine inside a closed area.
•   Never make adjustments or repairs with 

the engine (motor) running. Dis con nect 
the spark plug wire, and keep the wire 
away from the plug to prevent ac ci den tal 
starting.

•   Keep nuts and bolts, especially blade 

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

•   Never tamper with safety devices. Check 

their proper operation reg u lar ly.

 • 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 nec es sary, 
before restarting.

•   Never attempt to make wheel height 

adjustments while the engine (mo tor) is 
running.

•   Grass catcher components are sub ject 

to wear, dam age, and de te ri o ra tion, 
which could expose moving parts or 
allow objects to be thrown. Frequently 
check com po nents and replace with 
man u fac tur er’s recommended parts, 
when necessary.

•   Mower blades are sharp and can cut. 

Wrap the blade(s) or wear gloves, and 
use extra caution when ser vic ing them.

•   Do not change the engine governor set-

ting or overspeed the engine.
