Operation
Side Discharge
An uncovered discharge opening could allow the
lawn mower to throw objects in the operator’s or
bystander’s direction and result in serious injury.
Also, contact with the blade could occur.
•
NEVER remove the grass deflector from the
mower because the grass deflector routes
material down toward the turf. If the grass
deflector is ever damaged, replace it
immediately.
•
Never put your hands or feet under the mower.
•
Never try to clear discharge area or mower
blades unless you move the power take off
(PTO) to “OFF” and rotate the ignition key to
“OFF.” Also remove the key and pull the wire
off the spark plug(s).
Warning
1. The mower has a hinged grass deflector that disperses
clippings to the side and down toward the turf.
