could result in serious injury or death

DO NOT operate machine on steep 
slopes or near drop offs

Avoid sharp and/or quick turns

DO NOT operate on slopes.

Look down and behind 
before and while moving

2. DANGER!

Keep hands and feet away 
from all rotating or moving 
parts.

Training

Read, understand, and follow all instructions 
on the machine and in the manuals before 
starting.

Be sure the area is clear of bystanders and 
pets before operating. Stop machine if 
anyone enters the area.

Improper use of power equipment can cause 
serous permanent injury or death to the 
operator or a bystander.

Understand:

How to operate all controls

The functions of all controls

How to STOP in an Emergency

If the operator or the mechanic cannot read 
the manual, it is the owner’s responsibility to 
explain it to them.

ALWAYS train any inexperienced operators 
and require them to read and understand all 
manuals and decals.

Only allow responsible adults, who are 
familiar with the instructions, to operate this 
machine.

Only the user can prevent and is responsible 
for accidents or injuries occurring to 
themselves, other people or property.

Operator Age

DO NOT allow children under the age of 18 
to operate any outdoor power equipment.

Local regulations may restrict the age of the 
operator.

Children

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.

Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters 
the area.

NEVER allow children to operate the 
machine.

Use extreme care when approaching blind 
corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that 
may block your view of a child.

Keep children out of the mowing area and in 
the watchful care of a responsible adult 
other than the operator.

Personal Protection

DO NOT wear loose clothing or jewelry and 
tie back hair that may get caught in rotating 
parts.

Wear adequate outer garments.

Wear adequate safety gear and protective 
gloves.
