•
Stop on level ground, disengage drives, engage the
parking brake, shut off the engine before leaving the
operator's position for any reason, including emptying the
catchers or unclogging the chute.
•
Stop equipment and inspect the blades after striking
objects or if an abnormal vibration occurs. Make the
necessary repairs before resuming operations.
•
Keep your hands and feet away from the cutting unit.
•
Look behind and down before backing up to ensure a
clear path.
•
Keep pets and bystanders away from an operating
machine.
•
Slow down and use caution when making turns and
crossing roads and sidewalks. Stop the blades if you are
not mowing.
•
Be aware of the mower-discharge direction and do not
point it at anyone.
•
Do not operate the machine while tired, ill, or under the
influence of alcohol or drugs.
•
Use care when loading or unloading the machine into
or from a trailer or truck.
•
Use care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees,

Safe Handling of Fuels
•
To avoid personal injury or property damage, use
extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely
flammable and the vapors are explosive.
• Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other sources
of ignition.
•
Use only an approved fuel container.
•
Do not remove the fuel cap or add fuel with the engine
running.
•
Allow the engine to cool before fueling.
•
Do not fuel the machine indoors.
•
Do not store the machine or fuel container where there
is an open flame, spark, or pilot light, such as on a water
heater or on other appliances.
•
Do not fill containers inside a vehicle, on a truck, or on a
trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers on
the ground away from your vehicle before filling.
•
Remove equipment from the truck or trailer and fuel it
on the ground. If this is not possible, then add fuel with
such equipment as a portable container rather than from
a fuel-dispenser nozzle.
•
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.
•
If you spill fuel on clothing, change your clothing
immediately.
•
Do not overfill the fuel tank. Replace the fuel cap and
tighten it securely.
Maintenance and Storage
•
Disengage drives, set the parking brake, shut off the
engine, and remove the key or disconnect spark-plug wire.
Wait for all movement to stop before adjusting, cleaning,
or repairing.
•
Clean grass and debris from the cutting unit, drives,
mufflers, and engine to help prevent fires.
•
Clean up oil or fuel spills.
•
Let the engine cool before storing the machine.
•
Do not store fuel near flames or drain the fuel indoors.
•
Do not allow untrained personnel to service the machine.
•
Use jack stands to support components when required.
•
Carefully release pressure from components with stored
energy.
•
Disconnect the battery or remove the spark-plug wire
before making any repairs. Disconnect the negative
terminal first and the positive terminal last. Connect the
positive terminal first and negative last.
•
Use care when checking the blades. Wrap the blade(s) or
wear gloves, and use caution when servicing them. Only
replace blades; do not straighten or weld them.
•
Keep hands and feet away from moving parts. If possible,
do not make adjustments with the engine running.
•
Keep all parts in good working condition and all hardware
tightened. Replace all worn or damaged decals.
Hauling
•
Use care when loading or unloading the machine into a
trailer or a truck.
•
Use full-width ramps for loading machine into a trailer
or a truck.
•
Tie the machine down securely using straps, chains, cable,
or ropes. Both front and rear straps should be directed
down and outward from the machine.
