IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 

 

SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE 

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

running. Allow the engine to cool before refueling. 

4.  DO NOT refuel the machine indoors. 
5.  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. 

6.  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. 

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. 

8.  DO NOT start gas powered equipment in enclosed 

vehicles or trailers. 

9.  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 

10. If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing 

immediately. 

11. 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. 

10.  DO NOT leave the machine with the engine running. 

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

 
 
 

OPERATION 

(Continued From Previous Column) 
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. DO NOT point 
discharge at people, passing cars, windows or 
doors. 

14. 

 

DO NOT discharge material against a wall or 
obstruction. Material may ricochet back towards the 
operator. 

15.  Slow down before turning. 
16. 

 

Watch out for traffic when near or crossing 
roadways. 

17.  DO NOT operate engine in enclosed areas.  Engine 

exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, a deadly 
poison. 

18. 

 

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. 

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.
