and protruding objects.  

8.   DO NOT mow on wet grass. Always be sure of 

your footing. Keep a firm hold on the handle

reason.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE 

1.   DO NOT store mower or fuel container inside 

where fumes may reach an open flame, spark or 
pilot light such as in a water heater, furnace, 
clothes dryer or other gas appliance. Allow 
engine to cool before storing machine in an 
enclosure. Store fuel container out of reach of 
children in a well ventilated, unoccupied 
building. 

2.   Keep mower and engine free of grass, leaves or 

excess grease to reduce fire hazard and engine 
overheating. 

3.  When draining fuel tank, drain fuel into an 

approved container outdoors and away from 
open flame. 

4.   Keep all bolts, especially blade bolts, nuts and 

screws properly tight. Check that all cotter pins 
are in proper position. 

5. 

 Always provide adequate ventilation when 

running engine. Engine exhaust gases contain 
carbon monoxide, a deadly poison. 

6. 

 Service engine and make adjustments only 

when engine is stopped. Removed spark plug 
wire from spark plug and secure wire away from 
spark plug to prevent accidental starting. 

7. 

 DO NOT change engine governor speed 

settings or overspeed engine. 

8.   Check grass bag assembly frequently for wear 

or deterioration to avoid thrown objects and 
exposure to moving parts. Replace with new 
bag if loose seams or tears are evident. Replace 
slider or bag adapter if broken or cracked. 

9.   Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the 

blades or wear heavy leather gloves and use 
CAUTION when handling them. 

10.  DO NOT test for spark by grounding spark plug 

next to spark plug hole; spark plug could ignite 
gas exiting engine. 

11. 

 

Have machine serviced by an authorized 
SNAPPER dealer at least once a year and have 
the dealer install any new safety devices. 

12.  Use only genuine SNAPPER replacement parts 

to assure that original standards are 
maintained.
