Rotary Mowers are capable under adverse conditions of throwing
objects for great distances (100 yards or more) and causing serious injury or death. Follow safety messages carefully.
STOP MOWING IF PASSERSBY ARE WITHIN 100 YARDS UN- LESS:
material such as rocks, cans, glass, and general debris has been removed.
NOTE: Where there are grass and weeds high enough to hide debris that could be struck by the blades, the area should be: in- spected and large debris removed, mowed at an intermediate height, inspected closely with any remaining debris removed, and mowed again at desired final height.
Use extreme caution when raising the Mower head. Stop the Blades from turning when the Mower Head is raised and passersby are within 100 yards. Raising the Mower head exposes the Cutting Blades which creates a potentially serious hazard and can cause serious injury by objects thrown from the Blades or by contact with the Blades.
Never Leave the mower unattended while the head is in the raised position. The mower could fall causing serious injury to anyone who might inadvertently be under the mower.
