WARNING
6
Failure to observe the following safety instructions
could result in serious injury or death.
GENERAL OPERATION:
Read, understand, and follow all instructions in this
manual and on the mower before starting.
Only allow responsible adults, who are familiar with the
instructions, to operate the mower.
Clear the area of objects such as rocks, toys, wire, etc.,
which could be picked up and thrown by the blade.
Be sure the area is clear of other people before mowing.
Stop mower if anyone enters the area.
Be aware of the mower discharge direction and do not
point it at anyone. Mower blades can throw rocks or other
debris.
Do not operate the mower without either the entire grass
catcher or the deflector in place. This will decrease the
possibility of injury from objects being thrown by the
mower blades.
Never
carry passengers. They may fall off and become
seriously injured or interfere with safe operation of the
mower.
Mowing in reverse is not recommended because it is
difficult to maintain a clear vision of the mowing path.
However, should it become necessary to back up,
remember to look down and behind before and while
backing.
