Personal protective equipment

You must use approved personal protective equipment
whenever you use the machine. Personal protective
equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will
reduce the degree of injury if an accident does happen.
Ask your dealer for help in choosing the right equipment.
Always wear:
• Sturdy, non-slip boots or shoes.
• Heavy, long pants. Do not wear shorts sandals or go
barefoot.
• Gloves must be worn when required, for example
when fitting, inspecting or cleaning the blade.
• Wear ear protectors to avoid damage to hearing.
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
• Always wear safety glasses or eye shields while
operating your lawn mower or performing any
adjustments or repairs. We recommend standard
safety glasses or a wide vision safety mask over
spectacles.

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that
children be a minimum of 12 year of age before operating
a pedestrian controlled lawn mower and a minimum of 16
years of age before operating a riding lawn mower.
Serious accidents may occur if you fail to be on your
guard for children in the vicinity of the machine. Children
are often attracted to the machine and mowing. Never

enter the work area.

or pets, are in the immediate vicinity.
• Before and during reversing procedures, look behind
you and down for small children.

It is not possible to cover every conceivable situation you
can face. Always exercise care and use your common
sense. If you get into a situation where you feel unsafe,
stop and seek expert advice. Contact your dealer, service
agent or an experienced user. Do not attempt any task
