IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 

 

SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE 

(Continued From Previous Page) 
1.  DO NOT remove fuel cap or add fuel with the 

engine running. Allow the engine to cool before 
refueling. 

2.  DO NOT refuel the machine indoors. 
3.  DO NOT store the machine or fuel container 

inside where there is an open flame, spark or 
pilot light such as on a water heater or other 
appliances. 

4.  DO NOT fill fuel containers inside a vehicle or 

on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. 
Always place the containers on the ground 
away from the vehicle before filling. 

5. 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. 

6. DO NOT start gas powered equipment in 

enclosed vehicles or trailers. 

7.  Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the 

fuel tank or container opening at all times until 
fueling is complete. DO NOT use a nozzle lock-
open device 

8.  If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing 

immediately. 

9.  DO NOT overfill a fuel tank. Replace fuel cap 

and tighten securely. 

 

OPERATION 

1.  DO NOT put hands or feet near or under 

rotating parts. Keep clear of discharge area 
while engine is running. 

2.  STOP engine when crossing gravel drives, 

walks, or roads, and under any conditions 
where thrown objects might be a hazard. 

3.  Mow only in daylight or good artificial light. 
4. DO NOT operate mower while under the 

influence of alcohol or drugs. 

5.  After striking a foreign object or if mower 

vibrates abnormally, STOP the engine, 
disconnect and secure spark plug wire. Inspect 
the mower for any damage and repair the 
damage before starting. 

6.  DO NOT mow near drop offs, ditches or 

embankments. Operator could lose footing or 
balance. 

7. STAY ALERT for holes and other hidden 

hazards. Tall grass can hide obstacles. Keep 
away from ditches, washouts, culverts, fences 
and protruding objects.  

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

your footing. Keep a firm hold on the handle 
and walk, never run. Slipping could cause 
injury. 

9.  ALWAYS stay behind handle when engine 

(motor) is running. 

 

OPERATION  

(Continued From Previous Column) 
10. DO NOT leave the machine with the engine 

running. STOP BLADE and STOP ENGINE 
before leaving the operators position for any 
reason. 

11. Before cleaning, repairing or inspecting make 

certain engine, blade and all moving parts have 
STOPPED. Disconnect and secure spark plug 
wire away from plug to prevent accidental 
starting. 

12. STOP engine and wait until the blade comes to 

complete STOP before removing grass bag 
and/or clearing grass. 

13.  DO NOT operate mower without the entire grass 

catcher, discharge guard, rear guard or other 
safety devices in place and working.  

14. DO NOT point discharge at people, passing 

cars, windows or doors. 

15. DO NOT discharge material against a wall or 

obstruction. Material may ricochet back 
towards the operator. 

16.  Slow down before turning. 
17. Watch out for traffic when near or crossing 

roadways. 

18. DO NOT operate engine in enclosed areas.  

Engine exhaust gases contain carbon 
monoxide, a deadly poison. 

19. 

Only use accessories approved by the 
manufacturer. See manufacturer’s instructions 
for proper operation and installation of 
accessories. 

 

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.
