OWNER'S INFORMATION
Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
DO NOT:
Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. The
operator could lose footing or balance.
Do not mow excessively steep slopes.
Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced footing could cause slip-
ping.
II1. Children
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the pres-
ence of children. Children are often attracted to the mower and
the mowing activity. Never assume that children will remain
where you last saw them.
1. Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful
care of a responsible adult.
2. Be alert and turn mower off if children enter the area.
3. Before and while moving backwards, look behind and down
for small children.
4. Never allow children to operate the mower.
5. Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees,
or other objects that may obscure vision.

flammable and vapors are explosive.

b. Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine running. Al-
low engine to cool before refueling. Do not smoke.
c. Never refuel the machine indoors.

ning. Disconnect the spark plug wire, and keep the wire away
from the plug to prevent accidental starting. Always wear eye
protection when you make adjustments or repairs.
Keep all nuts and bolts, especially blade attachment bolts,
tight and keep equipment in good condition.
Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper opera-
tion regularly.
To reduce fire hazard, keep mower free of grass, leaves, or
other debris build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage. Allow mow-
er to cool before storing.
Stop and inspect the equipment if you strike an object. Repair,
if necessary, before restarting.
Never attempt to make wheel height adjustments while the
engine (motor) is running.
Always disconnect electric mowers (live operated) before
cleaning, repairing, or adjusting.
10. Grass catcher components are subject to wear, damage, and
deterioration, which could expose moving parts or allow ob-
jects to be thrown. Frequently check components and replace
with manufacturer's recommended parts, when necessary. For
storage, always make sure grass catcher is empty.
11. Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the blade(s) or
wear gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them.
12. Do not change the engine governor setting or over-speed the
engine.
13. Frequently check the blade for wear or damages such as
cracks and nicks. A blade that is bent or damaged must be
immediately replaced with a factory replacement blade. For
safety and good cutting performance, replace the blade every
two years. Frequently check the blade bolt and the engine
mounting bolts. Replace damaged bolts and tighten loose
bolts.
14. Use only original equipment or authorized replacement parts.
* Asterisked items do not apply to electric mowers.
