DANGER
WARNING
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
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 the cutting deck.
Contact with blade can amputate fingers, hands, toes 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 forward.
b.
Be sure you are well balanced with sure footing.
c.
Pull the mower back slowly, no more than half way toward 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 machines 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.
