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

place for future and regular reference and for ordering 

replacement parts.

Be completely familiar with the controls and the proper use 

2. 

of this machine before operating it.
This machine is a precision piece of power equipment, 

3. 

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.
Never allow children under 14 years of age to operate this 

4. 

machine. Children 14 and over should read and understand 

the instructions and safe operation practices in this manual 

and on the machine and be trained and supervised by an 

adult.

Only responsible individuals who are familiar with these 

5. 

rules of safe operation should be allowed to use this 

machine.
Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to be 

6. 

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. 

Plan your mowing pattern to avoid discharge of material 

7. 

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. 
To help avoid blade contact or a thrown object injury, 

8. 

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. 
Always wear safety glasses or safety goggles during 

9. 

operation and while performing an adjustment or repair 

to protect your eyes. Thrown objects which ricochet can 

cause serious injury to the eyes.

Double Insulated Lawn Mower

Double insulation is a concept in the safety of electric lawn mowers, which eliminates the need for the usual 

three-wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system. Wherever there is electric current in the 

mower, there are two complete sets of insulation to protect the user. All exposed metal parts are isolated from 

the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation.
Servicing of a lawn mower with double insulation requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and should 

be performed only by a qualified service technician. For repair service we suggest you take the lawn mower to 

your nearest authorized service dealer. Always use original equipment manufacturer’s (OEM) replacement parts 

when servicing.

followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury. These basic 

precautions include the following:
