General Operation

1. 

Read this operator’s manual  carefully in its entirety before 

attempting to assemble this machine. Read, understand, 

and follow all instructions on the machine and in the 

manual(s)  before operation. Keep this manual in a safe 

place for future and regular reference and for ordering 

replacement parts.

2. 

Be completely familiar with the controls and the proper use 

of this machine before operating it.

3. 

This machine is a precision piece of power equipment, 

not a plaything. Therefore, exercise extreme caution at all 

times. This machine has been designed to perform one job: 

to mow grass. Do not use it for any other purpose.

4. 

Never allow children under 14 years of age to operate this 

machine. Children 14 and over should read and understand 

the instructions and safe operation practices in this manual 

and on the machine and should be trained and supervised 

by an adult.

5. 

Only responsible individuals who are familiar with these 

rules of safe operation should be allowed to use this 

machine.

6. 

Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to be 

used. Remove all stones, sticks, wire, bones, toys and other 

foreign objects, which could be tripped over or picked up 

and thrown by the blade. Thrown objects can cause serious 

personal injury.

7. 

Plan your mowing pattern to avoid discharge of material 

toward roads, sidewalks, bystanders and the like. Also, 

avoid discharging material against a wall or obstruction, 

which may cause discharged material to ricochet back 

toward the operator. 

8. 

To help avoid blade contact or a thrown object injury, 

stay in operator zone behind handles and keep children, 

bystanders, helpers and pets at least 75 feet from mower 

while it is in operation. Stop machine if anyone enters area. 

9. 

Always wear safety glasses or safety goggles during 

operation and while performing an adjustment or repair 

to protect your eyes. Thrown objects which ricochet can 

cause serious injury to the eyes.

10. 

Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and close-fitting 

slacks and shirts. Shirts and pants that cover the arms 

and legs and steel-toed shoes are recommended. Never 

operate this machine in bare feet, sandals, slippery or light-

weight (e.g. canvas) shoes.

11. 

Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts or under the 

cutting deck. Contact with blade can amputate fingers, 

hands, toes and feet.
