EFORE 

O

PERATION

 

Children 

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not 
alert to the presence of children. Children are 
generally attracted to machines and the work 
being done. Never assume children will remain 
where you last saw them.  

1. 

Keep children out of the operating area and 
under the watchful eye of another responsible 
adult. 

2. 

Be alert and turn machine off if children enter 
the work area. 

3. 

Before and when backing, look behind for 
small children. 

4. 

Never carry children while operating the 
machine. They may fall off and be seriously 
injured or interfere with the safe operation of 
the machine. 

5. 

Never allow children to play on the machine 
or snowblower even when they are turned off. 

6. 

Never allow children to operate the machine 
even under adult supervision. 

7. 

Use extra care when approaching blind 
corners, shrubs, trees, or other obstructions 
that might hide children from sight.
