Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children and pets. Children are often attracted to the
machine and the mowing activity.
Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them. Always follow these
precautions:
Keep children and pets at least 100 feet from the working area and ensure they are under the watchful care of a responsible
adult.
Be alert and turn the machine off if children or pets enter the work area.
Never allow children to operate the Mower.
Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may block your view of a child or pet.
This is a high-powered machine, with moving parts operating with high energy. You must operate the machine safely. Unsafe
operation can create a number of hazards for you, as well as anyone else in the nearby area. Always take the following precautions
when using this machine:
Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to other people, their property, and
themselves.
Always wear protective goggles or safety glasses with side shields while using the Mower to protect your eyes from possible
thrown debris.
Avoid wearing loose clothing or jewelry, which can catch on moving parts.
We recommend wearing gloves while using the Mower. Be sure your gloves fit properly and do not have loose cuffs or
drawstrings.
Wear shoes with non-slip treads when using your Mower. If you have safety shoes, we recommend wearing them. Do not
use the machine while barefoot or wearing open sandals.
Wear long pants while operating the Mower.
Use ear protectors or ear plugs rated for at least 20 dba to protect your hearing.
Keep bystanders at least 100 feet away from your work area at all times. Release the Blade Control Bar to stop the engine and
the Blade when another person or pet approaches.
Gasoline is a highly flammable liquid. Gasoline also gives off flammable vapor that can be easily ignited and cause a fire or
explosion. Never overlook the hazards of gasoline. Always follow these precautions:
Never run the engine in an enclosed area or without proper ventilation as the exhaust from the engine contains carbon
monoxide, which is an odorless, tasteless, and deadly poisonous gas.
Store all fuel and oil in containers specifically designed and approved for this purpose and keep away from heat and open
flame, and out of the reach of children.
Replace rubber fuel lines and grommets when worn or damaged and after 5 years of use.
Fill the gasoline tank outdoors with the engine off and allow the engine to cool completely. Don't handle gasoline if you or
anyone nearby is smoking, or if you're near anything that could cause it to ignite or explode. Never overfill the tank and
reinstall the fuel tank Cap and fuel container cap securely.
The engine exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or
other reproductive harm.
