3.Do not allow children to operate the vehicle. Do not allow adults to operate it without proper instruction.

4.Be especially watchful of children and pets darting into the area while operating.

5.Keep your eyes and mind on your unit while mowing or operating your attachment. Don’t let others distract you.

6.Do not attempt to operate your unit or mower when not in the driver’s seat.

7.Always stop unit when emptying the container.

8.Stop unit, shut off deck and attachment, set parking brake, shut off mower engine and remove spark plug wire before removing clogs or removing or replacing hose, boot, blower cone, or performing any maintenance.

9.Mow up and down the face of slopes (not steeper than 10 degrees); never across the face of the slope.
