During Operation
During Operating Safety
General Safety
•
Wear appropriate clothing, including eye protection;
slip-resistant, substantial footwear; and hearing
protection. Tie back long hair, secure loose clothing, and
do not wear jewelry.
•
Do not operate the machine while ill, tired, or under the
influence of alcohol or drugs.
•
The blade is sharp; contacting the blade can result in
serious personal injury. Shut off the engine and wait for
all moving parts to stop before leaving the operating
position.
•
When you release the blade-control bar, the engine should
shut off and the blade should stop within 3 seconds. If
not, stop using your machine immediately and contact an
Authorized Service Dealer.
•
Operate the machine only in good visibility and
appropriate weather conditions. Do not operate the
machine when there is the risk of lighting.
•
Wet grass or leaves can cause serious injury if you slip and
contact the blade. Mow only in dry conditions.
•
Use extreme care when approaching blind corners,
shrubs, trees, or other objects that may block your view.
•
Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden
objects. Uneven terrain could cause a slip-and-fall
accident.
•
Stop the machine and inspect the blades after striking an
object or if there is an abnormal vibration in the machine.
Make all necessary repairs before resuming operation.
•
Before leaving the operating position, shut off the engine,
remove the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop.
•
If the engine has been running the muffler will be hot and
can severely burn you. Keep away from the hot muffler.
