WARNING! 

When using electric gardening 

appliances, basic safety precautions should always be 
followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and/or  
personal injury.

Save these instructions and review frequently prior to use  
and in instructing others.

Safety Instructions 

1. 

Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to be 
used and remove all foreign objects.

2. 

Do not operate the equipment without wearing adequate 
outer garments. Wear protective footwear that will improve 
footing on slippery surfaces.

3. 

Use extension cords and receptacles as specified by the 
manufacturer for all units with electric drive motors or 
electric starting motors. (SEE TABLE 1)

4. 

Never attempt to make any adjustments while the motor is 
running.

5. 

Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts.

6. 

Exercise extreme caution when operating on or cross-
ing gravel drives, walks, or roads. Stay alert for hidden 
hazards or traffic.

7. 

After striking a foreign object, stop the motor, thoroughly 
inspect the machine for any damage, and repair the 
damage before restarting and operating the machine. 
Disconnect the cord on electric motors.

8. 

Exercise caution to avoid slipping or falling.

9. 

If the unit should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the 
motor and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is 
generally a warning sign of trouble.

10. 

Stop the motor when leaving the operating position, 

before unclogging the tines, and when making any repairs, 
adjustments, and inspections.

11. 

Take all possible precautions when leaving the machine 
unattended. Stop motor and remove the power cord.

18. 

Use only attachments and accessories approved by the 
manufacturer of the machine.

19. 

Never operate the machine without good visibility or light.

20. 

Be careful when cultivating in hard ground. The tines may 
catch in the ground and propel the machine forward. If this 
occurs, let go of the handlebars and the starting lever and 
do not restrain the machine.

22. 

Use extreme caution when reversing or pulling the 
machine towards you.

22. 

Switch on the motor carefully according to instructions 
and with feet well away from the tines.
