Keep children out of the mowing area and in the

watchful care of a responsible adult other than the operator.

Be alert and turn machine off if a child enters the area.

Before and while backing, look behind and down

for small children.

• Never carry children, even with the blades shut

 

off. They may fall off and be seriously injured or
