(Continued From Previous Page)
11. Protect yourself when mowing and wear appropriate
clothing including safety glasses, long pants, ear
protection, hardhat and substantial footwear with
good traction. Long hair, loose clothing or jewelry
may get tangled in moving parts.

preparation for emergencies.
13. Use extra care when loading or unloading the
machine into a trailer or truck.

signs of wear or deterioration and replace as needed
to prevent injury from thrown objects going through
weak or worn spots.
SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE
To avoid personal injury or property damage, use
extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely
flammable and the vapors are explosive
1. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other
sources of ignition.
2. Use only an approved fuel container.
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.

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
