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.
4. ALLOW only responsible adults & teenagers with
mature judgment under close adult supervision to
operate machine.

necessary. LOOK and SEE behind and down for
children, pets and hazards before and while
backing.
6. USE EXTRA CARE when approaching blind
corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may
obscure vision.
SLOPE OPERATION
1. Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall
accidents, which can result in severe injury. All
slopes require extra caution. If you feel uneasy on
a slope, DO NOT mow it.
2. Mow across slopes, never up-and-down. Exercise
extreme CAUTION when changing directions on
slopes. DO NOT mow steep slopes or other areas
where stability or traction is in doubt.
3. Use extra care with grass catchers or other
attachments; these affect the handling and the
stability of the machine.
