DANGER:
READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS, INSTRUCTIONS,
AND ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED WITH
THIS PRODUCT. Use of a Zero Turn Mower requires an
understanding of how the mower and controls operate.
Failure to follow all warnings and instructions will result in
death, serious personal injury, electric shock, and/or fire.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
This cutting machine is capable of amputating hands and
feet and throwing objects. Failure to observe all safety
instructions could result in serious injury or death.
Avoid dangerous environment — Do not use the lawn
mower in damp or wet conditions or operate in the rain.
Keep children away — Keep all bystanders,
children, and pets at least 100 ft. away. Stop
the mower and turn off the machine if anyone
enters the area.
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 in the watch-
ful care of a responsible adult other than the operator.
Be alert; stop and turn machine off if a child enters the
area.
Before and while backing, maneuvering in reverse, or
turning around, look behind and down for small children,
bystanders, and pets.
Never carry children, even with the blades
shut off. They may fall off and be seriously
injured or interfere with safe machine opera-
tion. Children who have been given rides in
the past may suddenly appear in the mowing
area for another ride and be run over or backed over
by the machine.
Never allow children to operate the machine.
