use of parts that do not meet the original equipment 
specifications may lead to improper performance, and 
may compromise safety.

Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, verify that the 
blade and all moving parts have come to a complete 
stop, and remove the safety key. In order to prevent 
accidental start-ups, remove the safety key when the 
mower is not in use. Remove the battery when making 
any adjustments or when any of the four wheels must 
be lifted off the ground.
