SAFETY INFORMATION

CHILD SAFETY

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not aware of the presence of children.

 Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful care of a responsible adult.

 Do not allow children under the age of 14 to operate this mower. Children who are 14 years 

of age and older must read and understand the operating instructions and safety rules in this 

manual and must be trained and supervised by a parent.

 Stay alert, and turn the mower off if a child or any other person enters the mowing area.

 Look behind and down for small children before and while moving backwards.

 Use extreme care when approaching blind corners, doorways, shrubs, trees, or other objects 

that may obscure your view of a child who may run into the path of the mower.
