How to Mow

1.Place the handle in the mowing position (C3).

2.Mow twice a week in the growing season. Your lawn will suffer if more than one third of its length is cut at one time.

Keep hands and feet away from the blade, a rotat- ing blade cannot be seen.

Mowing on banks and slopes can be dangerous. Do not mow on steep slopes.

Always keep your feet on flat ground with the mower below you on the slope and with the spark plug uppermost to avoid lubricating oil running into the cylinder.

Do not use this mower on slopes which are wet or more than 450 from horizontal.

Never push the mower up the slope.
