Safe Handling of Gasoline

To avoid personal injury or damage to property, 

use care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is very 

flammable and the vapors are explosive.

  WARNING!  

The engine and the exhaust 

system become very hot during operation. 

There is a risk for burns if touched. Let engine 

and exhaust system to cool before refueling.

•  Do not fuel the 

machine indoors.

•  Extinguish all 

cigarettes, cigars, 

pipes, and other 

sources of ignition.

•  Use only approved 

gasoline containers.

•  Do not remove gas cap or add fuel with 

the engine running. Let engine cool before 

refueling.

•  Do not keep the machine or fuel container 

where there is an open flame, spark or pilot light 

such as on a water heater or other appliance.

•  Before you start refueling, keep the risk of static 

electricity to a minimum by touching a metal 

surface.

• 

Do not fill containers in a vehicle or on a truck 

or trailer bed with plastic liner. Always put 

containers on the ground away from the vehicle 

when filling.

•  Do not put too much fuel in the tank. Replace 

gas cap and tighten securely.

•  Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck 

or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not 

possible, 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.

•  Do not start the engine near spilled fuel.
•  Do not use gasoline as a cleaning agent.
•  If leaks occur in fuel system, the engine must 

not be started until problem has been resolved.

•  Check the fuel level before each use and leave 

space for the fuel to expand, because the heat 

from the engine and the sun can otherwise 

cause the fuel to expand and overflow.

General Maintenance

•  Do not use the 

machine indoors or 

in spaces lacking 

correct ventilation. 

The exhaust 

fumes contain 

carbon monoxide, 

an odorless and 

poisonous lethal gas.

•  Make sure that the equipment is in good 

condition and that all nuts and bolts, especially 

those fastening the blade attachments, are 

correctly tightened and torqued.

CAUTION! 

Use protective glasses 

for maintenance work.

•  Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels 

as necessary. 

•  Do not interfere with the intended operation 

of or reduce the protection given by a safety 

device. Check their operation regularly. DO 

NOT operate a machine with a safety device 

that does not operate correctly.

•  Check grass catcher components and the 

discharge guard frequently and replace with 

manufacturer’s recommended parts when 

necessary. 

  WARNING!  

The engine must not 

be started when the driver’s floor plate or 

protective plates for the mower deck’s drive 

belt is removed.

•  Do not change the settings of engine controllers 

and avoid running the engine at overly high 

engine speeds. If you run the engine too fast, 

machine components could be damaged.

• 

To reduce the risk of fire, keep machine free of 

grass, leaves or other debris buildup. Clean oil 

or fuel spills and remove fuel-soaked debris. Let 

machine cool before storing.

•  Stop to do an inspection of the equipment if you 

run over or into anything. If necessary, make 

repairs before starting.

•  Do not make adjustments or repairs with the 

engine running.

•  The blades are sharp and can cause cuts and 

gashes. Wrap blades or use protective gloves 

when handling them.

•  Check the park brake’s operation regularly. 

Adjust and service as necessary.

•  Do not work with the starter circuit if there is 

spilled fuel.
