• This machine was built to be operated according to the rules for safe operation included in this
manual. As with any type of power equipment, carelessness or error on the part of the operator
can result in serious injury. This machine is capable of amputating hands and feet and throwing

CHILDREN
• Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children

Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.
• Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful care of a responsible adult
other than the operator.
