Tips on mower safety.
WARNING!
The information contained within this safety section is
extremely important. Personal injury to the user and to others may
result if this section is not read and acted upon at all times.
1. Before starting your mower inspect it carefully to ensure that there are no loose
parts and that it is in good working order.
2. Be sure of your footing. Always walk, never run, when operating the lawnmower.
3. Clear the area to be mowed of any stones, sticks, wire and debris before
beginning, and always ensure that you mow a safe distance away (over 14 metres)
from adults, children and animals.
4. Keep hands, feet and clothing away from the mower’s moving parts, and always
wear appropriate footwear (avoid sandals or open shoes).
5. Never put your hands or feet underneath the chassis of the lawnmower while the
engine is running.
6. Be aware that the machine’s exhaust area and other parts of the lawnmower get
very hot during, and right after use.
7. Turn off the engine and disconnect the spark plug cap before cleaning,
transporting, or making adjustments, and never leave the mower unattended.
8. Mow across the face of slopes, not up & down, and avoid mowing on very steep
slopes. We recommend you avoid mowing when it is raining, or after nightfall.
9. Do not operate the machine by pulling it towards you as you risk pulling it on to
your feet. Instead, always push and walk behind your lawnmower.
