Operator Safety
Read the Manual
The operator's manual contains important safety information you
need to be aware of BEFORE you operate your unit as well as
DURING operation.
Safe operating techniques, an explanation of the product's features
and controls, and maintenance information is included to help you
get the most out of your equipment investment.
Be sure to completely read the Safety Rules and Information found
on the following pages. Also completely read the Operation sec-
tion.
Tragic accidents can occur with children. Do not allow them
anywhere near the area of operation. Children are often at-
tracted to the unit and mowing activity. Never assume that
children will remain where you last saw them. If there is a
risk that children may enter the area where you are mowing,
have another responsible adult watch them.
DO NOT GIVE CHILDREN RIDES ON THIS UNIT! This
encourages them to come near the unit in the future while it
is running, and they could be seriously hurt. They may then
approach the unit for a ride when you are not expecting it,
and you may run over them.

Congratulations on purchasing a superior-quality piece of lawn and garden
equipment. Our products are designed and manufactured to meet or ex-
ceed all industry standards for safety.
Power equipment is only as safe as the operator. If it is misused, or not
properly maintained, it can be dangerous! Remember, you are responsible
for your safety and that of those around you.
Use common sense, and think through what you are doing. If you are not
sure that the task you are about to perform can be safely done with the
equipment you have chosen, ask a professional: contact your local autho-
rized dealer.
Do not mow in reverse unless abso-
lutely necessary. Always look down
and behind before and
while traveling in reverse
even with the mower
blades disengaged.
