SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE MOWING

1.Read these safety instructions and engine manufacturer's operating and maintenance instructions that are furnished with the mower.

2.Discuss proper maintenance with your Dixon dealer, to save money and prevent injury. Consult your dealer before removing any parts.

3.Don't allow anyone to operate your Dixon mower without proper instruction. Young children should never be allowed to operate any power mower, riding or walking.

4.Before mowing, pick up all debris—particularly stones and sharp objects.

5.Before starting the engine, make sure the gas cap is in place.

DURING MOWER OPERATION

1.The revolutionary Dixon mower att racts many admiring neighbors. But when mowing, all persons — especially children — and pets should be cleared from the mowing area.

2.Wear appropriate, safe clothing when mowing — close- fitting jeans or slacks and heavy leather or safety shoes with rough soles. Never use any kind of mower with bare feet or open sandals, not even an old push-type model!

3.When grass is wet or slippery, do not use any riding mower.

4.Always mow at the slowest speed that will cut satisfactorily.

5.Keep hands and feet away from the blade at all times.

6.Although the Dixon mower is equipped with a missile

deflector, keep persons clear of the discharge chute. Do not operate

7.Use extreme caution when mowing hills or slopes with any mower.

8.Always disengage blades before taking the mower across walks or objects that project above the surface.

9.When the mower is not in use, turn the engine off; never leave the engine running unattended. Your Dixon mower is equipped with a weight-sensitive switch that kills the engine when operator leaves the seat while blades are engaged. Test this important safety feature before each time mower is used. This may be done by starting engine, engaging blades and then rising slightly from seat. If engine does not stop, see your dealer for necessary repair.

10.Before adjusting your mower or adding fuel, turn the en - gine off. Let it cool, and disconnect the spark plug so the engine cannot start by accident. Be sure all moving parts are stopped.

11.Never run the engine indoors; the fumes are dangerous.

12.Before backing your Dixon mower, stop, turn around, and look.

13.Gasoline fumes are explosive; use only approved gasoline containers to store small amount of fuel. No special oil/gas mixtures are needed for your Dixon mower.

14.If the mower should start vibrating, stop the engine imme - diately and check for damage or loose parts. Vibration is usually the warning of trouble.

15.Never lift lawn mower by the body; lift only by the frame.

16.Never carry passengers.
