STOP MOWING IF PASSERSBY ARE WITHIN 100 YARDS UNLESS:
NOTE: Where there are grass and weeds high enough to hide debris that could
bestruck by the blades, the area should be: inspected and large debris removed, mowed atan intermediate height, inspected, closely with any remaining debris being removed, andmowed again at desired final height. (This will also reduce power required to mow,reduce wear and tear on the Mower drivetrain, spread cut material better, eliminatestreaking, and make the final cut more uniform.)
