Children
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.
Never carry children, even with the blades shut
•
off. They may fall off and be seriously injured
or interfere with safe machine operation.
Children who have been given rides in the past
may suddenly appear in the mowing area for
another ride and be run over or backed over by
the machine.
Never allow children to operate the machine.
•
Use extra care when approaching blind
•
corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that
may block your view of a child.
