emit chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth defects
or other reproductive harm.

Battery posts, terminals and related
accessories contain lead and lead
compounds, chemicals know to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth defects
or other reproductive harm. Wash hands

WARNING
DO NOT tow any trailers, etc. with this
mower. They may jackknife or over turn
causing damage to the mower and possibly
serious injury to the operator.
•
NEVER allow children to operate the
machine.
•
Be sure the area is clear of other people
before mowing. Stop machine if anyone
enters the area.
•
Never carry passengers or children even with
the blades off.
•
Do not drive in reverse unless absolutely
necessary. Always look down and behind
before and while backing.
•
Never carry children. They may fall off and be
seriously injured or interfere with safe ma-
chine operation.
•
Keep children out of the mowing area and
under the watchful care of another respon-
sible adult.
•
Be alert and turn machine off if children enter
the area.
•
Before and when backing, look behind and
down for small children.
•
Mow up and down slopes (10° Max), not
across.
•
Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs,
etc.
•
Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven
terrain could overturn the machine. Tall grass
can hide obstacles.
•
Use a slow speed while on slope or hill.
•
Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires
lose traction, disengage the blades and
proceed slowly straight down the slope.
•
If machine stops while going uphill, disengage
blades, shift into reverse and back down
slowly.
•
Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and
then, turn slowly and gradually downhill, if
possible.
