Do:
1.  Mow across the face of slopes; never up and down. 

Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on 

slopes.

2.  Watch for holes, ruts, rocks, hidden objects, or bumps which 

can cause you to slip or trip. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

3.  Always be sure of your footing. A slip and fall can cause 

serious personal injury. If you feel you are losing your 

balance, release the blade control handle immediately, and 

the blade will stop rotating within 3 seconds.

Do Not:

1.  Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches or embankments, you 

could lose your footing or balance.

2.  Do not mow slopes greater than 15 degrees as shown on 

the slope gauge.

3.  Do not mow on wet grass. Unstable footing could cause 

slipping.

Children

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the 

presence of children. Children are often attracted to the mower 

and the mowing activity. They do not understand the dangers. 

Never assume that children will remain where you last saw 

them.

1.  Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watch-

ful care of a responsible adult other than the operator.

2.  Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters the area.
3.  Before and while moving backwards, look behind and down 

for small children.

4.  Use extreme care when approaching blind corners, 

doorways, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure 

your vision of a child who may run into the mower.

5.  Keep children away from hot or running engines. They can 

suffer burns from a hot muffler. 

6.  Never allow children under 14 years old to operate a power 

mower. Children 14 years old and over should read and 

understand the operation instructions and safety rules in 

this manual and should be trained and supervised by a 

parent.

Service

Safe Handling Of Gasoline:

1.  To avoid personal injury or property damage use extreme 

care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable 

and the vapors are explosive. Serious personal injury can 

occur when gasoline is spilled on yourself or your clothes 

which can ignite. 

2.  Wash your skin and change clothes immediately.
3.  Use only an approved gasoline container.
4.  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.

5.  Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer 

and refuel it on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel 

such equipment on a trailer with a portable container, rather 

than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.

6.  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.

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

ignition.

8.  Never fuel machine indoors because flammable vapors 

will accumulate in the area.

9.  Never remove gas cap or add fuel while the engine is 

hot or running.  Allow engine to cool at least two minutes 

before refueling.

10. Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than ½ inch 

below bottom of filler neck to provide for fuel expansion.

11. Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.
12. If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine and equipment. 

Move unit to another area. Wait 5 minutes before starting 

the engine.

13. Never store the machine or fuel container near an open 

flame, spark or pilot light as on a water heater, space 

heater,  furnace, clothes dryer or other gas appliances. 

14. To reduce fire hazard, keep mower free of grass, leaves, 

or other debris build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage and 

remove any fuel soaked debris. 

15. Allow a mower to cool at least 5 minutes before storing.

General Service:

1.  Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly ventilated area. 

Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless 

and deadly gas.

2.  Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make certain the 

blade and all moving parts have stopped. Disconnect the 

spark plug wire and ground against the engine to prevent 

unintended starting. 

3.  Check the blade and engine mounting bolts at frequent 

intervals for proper tightness. Also, visually inspect blade 

for damage (e.g., bent, cracked, worn) Replace blade with 

the original equipment manufacture’s (O.E.M.) blade only, 

listed in this manual. “Use of parts which do not meet the 

original equipment specifications may lead to improper 

performance and compromise safety!” 

4.  Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the blade or 

wear gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them.

5.  Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure the 

equipment is in safe working condition.

6.  Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper 

operation regularly.

7.  After striking a foreign object, stop the engine, discon-

nect the spark plug wire and ground against the engine. 

Thoroughly inspect the mower for any damage. Repair the 

damage before starting and operating the mower.

8.  Never attempt to make a wheel or cutting height adjust-

ment while the engine is running.

9.  Grass catcher components, discharge cover, and trail 

shield are subject to wear and damage which could 

expose moving parts or allow objects to be thrown. For 

safety protection, frequently check components and re-

place immediately with original equipment manufacturer’s 

(O.E.M.) parts only, listed in this manual. “Use of parts 

which do not meet the original equipment specifications 

may lead to improper performance and compromise 

safety!”

10. Do not change the engine governor setting or overspeed 

the engine. The governor controls the maximum safe 

operating speed of the engine. 

11. Maintain or replace safety labels, as necessary.
12. Observe proper disposal laws and regulations. Improper 

disposal of fluids and materials can harm the environment.
