2. Only mature, responsible persons shall operate or
service the machine and only after proper instruction
and training. The owner is responsible for training the
operators. Further, the owner/operator can prevent
and/or is responsible for accidents or injuries
occurring to themselves, other people or property.
3. Data indicates that operators age 60 and above, are
involved in a large percentage of mower-related
injuries. These operators should evaluate their ability
to operate the mower safely enough to protect
themselves and others from serious injury.
4. Handle fuel with extra care. Fuels are flammable
and vapors are explosive. Use only an approved
fuel container. DO NOT remove fuel cap or add
fuel with engine running. Add or drain fuel
outdoors only with engine stopped and cool.
Clean spilled fuel from machine. DO NOT smoke.
5. Practice operation of machine with BLADES OFF
to learn controls and develop skills.
6. Check the area to be mowed and remove all
objects such as toys, wire, rocks, limbs and other
objects that could cause injury if thrown by blades
or interfere with mowing.
7. Evaluate the terrain to determine what
accessories and attachments are needed to
properly and safely perform the job. Only use
accessories and attachments approved by
SNAPPER.
8. Keep people and pets out of mowing area.
Immediately, STOP blades, STOP engine, and
STOP machine if anyone enters the area.

extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive

truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always
place the containers on the ground away from the
vehicle before filling.
7. Remove gas-powered equipment from the vehicle
or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not
possible, then refuel equipment using a portable
container, rather than a gasoline dispenser nozzle.

vehicles or trailers.

tank or container opening at all times until fueling
