I. CHILDREN
WARNING: CHILDREN CAN BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED BY THIS EQUIPMENT.
Carefully read and follow all of the safety instructions below.
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often
attracted to the machine and the mowing activity. NEVER assume that children will remain where you last
saw them.
• Keep children out of the mowing area and in the watchful care of a responsible adult other than the
operator.
• Be alert and turn machine off if a child enters the area.
• Before and while backing, look behind and down for small children.
• Children should be a minimum of 12 years of age before operating a pedestrian-controlled lawn mower
and a minimum of 16 years of age before operating a riding lawn mower.
• Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees or other objects that may block your view
of a child.
• NEVER OPERATE THE MOWER WHEN CHILDREN ARE PRESENT.
II. SLOPE OPERATION
Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall accidents which can result in severe injury. All slopes require
extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it.
• Mow across the face of slopes: NEVER up and down. Exercise extreme caution when changing direction
on slopes.
• Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks or other hidden objects. Uneven terrain could cause a slip and fall
accident. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
• DO NOT mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. You could lose footing or balance.
• DO NOT mow on wet grass or excessively steep slopes. Poor footing could cause a slip and fall
accident.
III. GENERAL OPERATION
• Read, understand, and follow all instructions on the machine and in the instruction manual before
starting.
• DO NOT put hands or feet near rotating parts or under the machine. Keep clear of the discharge opening
at all times.
• Allow only responsible adults familiar with the instructions to operate the machine.
• Clear the area of objects such as rocks, toys, wire, etc., which could be picked up and thrown by the
blades. Stay behind the handles while the engine is running.
• Be sure the area is clear of bystanders before operating. Stop machine if anyone enters the area.
