Tragic accidents can occur if operator is not alert to presence of children. Chil-
dren are often attracted to mower and mowing activity. They do not understand
the dangers. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.

Before and while moving backwards, look behind and down for small
children.

Use extreme care when approaching blind corners, doorways, shrubs,
trees, or other objects that may obscure your vision of a child who may
run into the mower.

sidewalks, bystanders and the like. Also, avoid discharging material
against a wall or obstruction which may cause discharged material to
ricochet back toward the operator.
To help avoid blade contact or a thrown object injury, stay in operator
zone behind handles and keep children, bystanders, helpers, and pets at
least 75 feet from mower while it is in operation. Stop machine if anyone
enters area.
Always wear safety glasses or safety goggles during operation and while
performing an adjustment or repair to protect your eyes. Thrown objects
which ricochet can cause serious injury to the eyes.
Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and close-fitting slacks and shirts.
Shirts and pants that cover the arms and legs and steel-toed shoes
are recommended. Never operate this machine in bare feet, sandals,
slippery or light weight (e.g. canvas) shoes.
Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts or under cutting deck.
Contact with blade can amputate hands and feet.
A missing or damaged discharge cover can cause blade contact or
thrown object injuries.
Many injuries occur as a result of the mower being pulled over the foot
during a fall caused by slipping or tripping. Do not hold on to the mower if
you are falling; release the handle immediately.
Never pull the mower back toward you while you are walking. If you must
back the mower away from a wall or obstruction first look down and
behind to avoid tripping and then follow these steps:
a. Step back from mower to fully extend your arms.
b. Be sure you are well balanced with sure footing.
c. Pull back slowly, no more than half way towards you.
d. Repeat these steps as needed.
Do not operate the mower while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Do not engage the self-propelled mechanism on units so equipped while
starting engine.
The blade control handle is a safety device. Never attempt to bypass its
operation. Doing so makes the safety device inoperative and may result
in personal injury through contact with the rotating blade. The blade
control handle must operate easily in both directions and automatically
return to the disengaged position when released.
Never operate the mower in wet grass. Always be sure of your footing. A
slip and fall can cause serious personal injury. If you feel you are losing
your footing, release the blade control handle immediately and the blade
will stop rotating within three seconds.
Mow only in daylight or good artificial light. Walk, never run.
Stop the blade when crossing gravel drives, walks or roads.
