Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters the area.

Never allow children to operate the machine.

Use extra care when approaching blind corners,
shrubs, trees, or other objects that may block your
view of a child.

Safe Handling of Gasoline

To avoid personal injury or property damage, use
extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is
extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive.

Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other
sources of ignition.

Use only an approved gasoline container.

Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine
running. Allow engine to cool before refueling.

Never refuel the machine indoors.

Never store the machine or fuel container where
there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light such as
on a water heater or on other appliances.

Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck
or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place
containers on the ground away from your vehicle
before filling.

Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck
or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not
possible, then refuel such equipment with a portable
container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser
nozzle.

Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel
tank or container opening at all times until fueling is
complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.

If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing
immediately.

Never overfill fuel tank. Replace gas cap and tighten
securely.

Exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an
odorless, deadly poison that can kill you.

Do not run the engine indoors or in an enclosed
area.

General Service

Never operate machine in a closed area.

Keep all nuts and bolts tight to be sure the equipment
is in safe working condition.

Never tamper with safety devices. Check their
proper operation regularly.

Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris
build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage and remove
any fuel-soaked debris. Allow machine to cool
before storing.

If you strike a foreign object, stop and inspect the
machine. Repair, if necessary, before starting.

Never make any adjustments or repairs with the
engine running. Disconnect the spark plug wire
and ground against engine to prevent unintended
starting.

Check grass catcher components and the discharge
guard frequently and replace with manufacturer’s
recommended parts, when necessary.

Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or wear
gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them.

Do not change the engine governor setting or
overspeed the engine.

Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as
necessary.
