SAFE MOWING PRACTICES
For your safety, keep all fourwheels on the ground, and be careful to
avoid losing your footing andyour control of the mower. Keep a firm
grip on the handlebar, and walk, never run, with the mower. Bevery
careful when mowing uneven or rough ground.
If stuck, do not kick or push the mowerwith your foot. Use the
handlebar only.
BWARNING
The blade is sharp and spins at high speed.
A spinning blade can cut you severelyand
can amputate fingers and toes.
•Wear protective footwear
•Keep your hands and feet away from the
mower deck while the engine is running.
•Stop the engine before performing any
adjustment, inspection, or maintenance.
Slopes
Mow across slopes, not up and
down. Avoid steep slopes (more
than 20°), and be careful when
changing direction. Mowing on a
slope when the grass is damp or
wet could cause you to slip, fall,
and lose control of the mower.
