you can hold them securely before lifting them. Use caution when positioning
your hands so that you do not set them down on your hands or fingers.

are designed to be installed or removed in their entirety. Failure to do so
will cause a reduction in stability or traction. Do not operate the mower
with only a portion of the Ultra Vac QDS installed.
