SAFETY

Sparking can occur when working with the battery and the heavy cables of the starter circuit. This can cause battery explosion, fire or eye injury. Sparking in this circuit can not occur after the chassis cable (normally negative, black) is removed from the battery.

•Use protective goggles.

•Ensure that the fuel filler cap is mounted tightly and no flammable substances are stored in an open vessel.

WARNING!

Avoid electrical sparking and its consequences by the following routines:

•Never work with the starter circuit if there is spilled fuel.

•Disconnect the negative cable from the battery first and reconnect it last.

•Do not make a bridge short circuit across the starter relay to run the starter.

•Never use the machine indoors or in spaces lacking proper ventilation. The exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, an odorless, poisonous, and lethal gas.

•Stop to inspect the equipment if the machine runs over or into anything. If necessary, make repairs before starting.

•Never make adjustments with the engine running.

•The machine is tested and approved only with the equipment originally provided or recommended by the manufacturer. Only use approved repair parts for the machine.

•The blades are sharp and can cause cuts and gashes. Wrap the blades or use protective gloves when handling them.

•Check the parking brake’s functionality regularly. Adjust and service as necessary.

•The mulch blades should only be used in familiar areas when higher quality mowing is desired.

•Reduce the risk of fire by removing grass, leaves, and other debris that may have accumulated on the machine.

•Allow the machine to cool before putting it in storage.

•Regularly clean deck and underside of deck, avoid spraying engine and electrical components with water.
