To help you, the operator, use this equipment safely, it is
equipped with an operator present safety system. Do NOT
attempt to alter or bypass the system. See your dealer
immediately if the system does not pass all the safety interlock
system tests found in this manual.
Thrown Objects
This unit has a spinning mower blade. This blade can pick up
and throw debris that could seriously injure a bystander. Be
sure to clean up the area to be mowed BEFORE you start
mowing.
Do not operate this unit without the entire grass catcher or
discharge guard (deflector) in place.
Also, do not allow anyone in the area while the unit is running!
If someone does enter the area, turn the unit off immediately
until they leave.
Debris Accumulation
Accumulation of grass and debris can result in a fire. Be sure
to clean any accumulation of grass and debris with a brush or
compressed air, before and after operation.
Fuel and Maintenance
Gasoline is extremely flammable. Its vapors are also extremely
flammable and can travel to distant ignition sources. Gasoline
must only be used as a fuel, not as a solvent or cleaner. It should
never be stored any place where its vapors can build up or travel
to an ignition source like a pilot light. Fuel belongs in an
approved, plastic, sealed gas can, or in the tractor fuel tank with
the cap securely closed. Spilled fuel needs to be cleaned up
immediately.
Proper maintenance is critical to the safety and performance of
your unit. Be sure to perform the maintenance procedures listed
in this manual, especially periodically testing the safety system.
General Safety Messages
WARNING
This powerful cutting machine is capable of amputating hands
and feet and can throw objects that can cause injury and
damage! Failure to comply with the following SAFETY
instructions could result in serious injury or death to the
operator or other persons. The owner of the machine must
understand these instructions and must allow only persons
who understand these instructions to operate machine. Each
person operating the machine must be of sound mind and
body and must not be under the influence of any substance,
which might impair vision, dexterity or judgment.
WARNING
Poisonous Gas Hazard
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas
that could kill you in minutes. You CANNOT see it, smell it,
or taste it. Even if you do not smell exhaust fumes, you could
still be exposed to carbon monoxide gas. If you start to feel
sick, dizzy, or weak while using this product, shut it off and
get to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have
carbon monoxide poisoning.
• Operate this product ONLY outside far away from
windows, doors and vents to reduce the risk of carbon
monoxide gas from accumulating and potentially being
drawn towards occupied spaces.
• Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or plug-in
carbon monoxide alarms with battery back-up according
to the manufacturer’s instructions. Smoke alarms cannot
detect carbon monoxide gas.
• DO NOT run this product inside homes, garages,
basements, crawlspaces, sheds, or other
partially-enclosed spaces even if using fans or opening
doors and windows for ventilation. Carbon monoxide can
quickly build up in these spaces and can linger for hours,
even after this product has shut off.
• ALWAYS place this product downwind and point the
engine exhaust away from occupied spaces.
Protection For Children
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of children. Children are often attracted to the machine
and the mowing activity. Never assume that children will remain
where you last saw them.
1. KEEP children out of the mowing area and under the
watchful care of a responsible adult other than the operator.
2. DO NOT allow children in yard when machine is operated
and turn machine OFF if anyone enters the area.
3. DO NOT allow pre-teenage children to operate machine.
