SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 
 

 

Never mow while barefoot or wearing open sandals or thongs. Wear long trousers and 
heavy shoes 

 

Know your controls. Read the owner’s manual carefully. Learn how to stop the engine 
quickly in any emergency 

 

Make sure the lawn is clear of sticks, stones, bones, wire and debris. They could be 
thrown by the blade 

 

Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire before clearing blockages, checking, 
or working on the mower. 

 

Before using, always visually inspect to see that blades, blade bolts and cutter assembly 
are not worn or damaged. Replace worn or damaged blades in sets to preserve balance. 

 

DAMAGED BLADES AND WORN BOLTS ARE MAJOR HAZARDS. 

 

Check all nuts, bolts and screws often; always be sure the mower is in a safe operating 
condition. Use only genuine replacement parts. 

 

Refuel outdoors only. Do not smoke while fuelling engine. Add fuel before starting the 
engine. 

 

Never remove the cap off the fuel tank or add fuel while the engine is running or the 
engine is hot. If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine but move the machine 
away from the area of the spill and avoid creating any source of ignition until fuel vapours 
have dissipated. 

 

Do not mow whilst people, especially children or pets are in the mowing area. 

 

Replace worn or faulty silencers (muffler) 

 

Mow only in good daylight. 

 

Never use the mower unless the grass catcher or guards (rear flap) provided by the 
manufacturer are in position. 

 

Start the engine carefully with feet well away from the blade. 

 

Do not operate the engine in a confined space where exhaust fumes (carbon monoxide) 
can collect. 

 

Stop the engine whenever you leave the mower, even for a moment. 

 

Do not allow children or people unfamiliar with these instructions to use the mower. 

 

Store the mower in a well-ventilated room away from naked flames such as may be found 
in hot water heaters. 

 

Do not over-speed the engine or alter governor settings. Excessive speed is dangerous 
and shortens the mower life. 

 

It is advisable to wear suitable eye protection when operating a mower. 

 

Turn the fuel off at the conclusion of mowing and reduce the throttle setting during engine 
run-out. 

 

Store fuel in a cool place in a container specifically designed for the purpose. In general, 
plastic containers are unsuitable. 

 

Stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire and inspect the mower if : 

 

the mower begins to vibrate abnormally; or 

 

after striking a foreign object. 

 

Never cut grass while walking backwards. 

 

Stop the engine before pushing the mower across gravel drives, walks or roads. 

 

Walk, never run. 

 

Mow across the face of slopes, never up and down. Exercise extreme caution when 
changing direction on slopes. Do not mow excessively steep slopes. 

 

Never pick up or carry a mower when it is operating.
