Keep children and people away. Keep children out of work area and under watchful care
of a responsible adult. Keep area of operation clear of all toys, pets, and debris.
Thrown objects can cause injury. Check for weak spots on docks, ramps or floors. Avoid
uneven work areas and rough terrain. Stay alert for hidden hazards or traffic.

GB – 5
Dust, smoke, fog, etc. can reduce vision and cause an accident. Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.
Avoid slippery surfaces. Always be sure of your footing. DO NOT mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could
cause sliding and effect the machine’s stability. Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing
roadways. Never carry passengers. DO NOT try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot
on the ground. Never direct discharge towards persons or property that
may be injured or damaged by thrown objects. Use extreme caution on gravel surfaces.

key, engage parking brake and allow moving parts to stop before leaving operator ’s posi ti on.

DO NOT operate in reverse unless absolutely necessary. ALWAYS look down and behind before and while backing.
Stop and inspect equipment if you strike an object or if there is an unusual vibration. Repair, if necessary, before restarting. Never make adjustments or repairs with the engine running.
Mower blades are sharp and can cut you. Wrap the blade(s) or wear gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them. NEVER weld or straighten mower blades.
Rotation of one blade may cause rotation of the other blades.
Take all possible precautions when leaving unit unattended. Shut off engine. Remove wire from spark plug and secure it away from spark plug.
ALWAYS remove key to prevent unauthorized use. Know the weight of loads. Limit loads to those you can
safely control and the unit can safely handle. Disengage PTO when attachment is not in use. ALWAYS
turn off power to attachment when travelling, crossing driveways, etc.
Mow up and down slopes, not across them. Keep all movements on the slope slow and gradual. Do
not make sudden changes in speed or direction. Avoid starting or stopping on the slope. If tires lose
traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly straight down the slope.
If you cannot back up a slope or you feel uneasy on it, do not mow it.
DO NOT park on slopes unless necessary. When parking on slope always chock or block wheels. Always set parking brake.
Use a slow speed. Tires may lose traction on slopes even though the brakes are functioning properly.
Do not bypass transmission when on a slope. Tow only with a machine that has a hitch designed for
towing. Do not attach towed equipment except at the hitch point.
Follow the manufacturer’s reco mme nda tion s for weigh t limits for towed equipment and towing on slopes.
NEVER allow children or others in or on towed equipment.
On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may cause loss of control.
Travel slowly and allow extra distance to stop. Use extra care when loading or unloading unit onto trailer
or truck. Secure unit chassis to transpor t vehicle. NEVER secure
from rods or linkages that could be damaged. DO NOT transport machine while engine is running. ALWAYS turn off power to attachment and shut off fuel
when transporting unit. Keep unit free of debris. Clean up oil or fuel spills. This product is equipped with an internal combustion
type engine. DO NOT use unit on or near any unimproved, forest-covered or brush covered land unless exhaust system is equipped with a spark arrester meeting applicable local, state or federal laws. A spark arrester, if it is used, must be maintained in effective working order by operator.
Fuel is highly flammable and its vapors are explosive. Handle with care. Use an approved fuel container.
NO smoking, NO sparks, NO flames. ALWAYS allow engine to cool before servicing.
NEVER fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot from operation.
NEVER fill or drain fuel tank indoors. Replace fuel cap securely and clean up spilled fuel. Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or
trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers on the ground away from your vehicle before filling.
When practical, remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment on a trailer with a portable container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening at all times until fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing immediately. Avoid Electric Shock. Objects contacting both battery
terminals at the same time may result in injury and unit damage. DO NOT reverse battery connections.
GB – 6
Reverse connections may result in sparks which can cause serious injury. Always connect positive (+) lead of charger to positive (+) terminal, and negative (-) lead to negative (-) terminal.
ALWAYS disconnect negative (-) cable FIRST and positive (+) cable SECOND. ALWAYS connect positive (+) cable FIRST, and negative (-) cable SECOND.
Explosive Gases from battery can cause death or serious injury. Poisonous battery fluid contains sulfuric acid and its contact with skin, eyes or clothing can cause severe chemical burns.
No flames, No sparks, No smoking near battery. ALWAYS wear safety glasses and protective gear near
battery. Use insulated tools. DO NOT TIP battery beyond a 45° angle in any direction. ALWAYS keep batteries out of reach of children. Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain
lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
ALWAYS block wheels and know all jack stands are strong and secure and will hold weight of unit during maintenance.
Release pressure slowly from components with stored energy.
NEVER attempt to make any adjustments to unit while engine is running (except where specifically recommended). Stop engine, remove key or spark plug wire and wait for all moving parts to stop before servicing or cleaning.
Check parking brake operation frequently. Adjust and service as required.
ALWAYS maintain unit in safe operating condition. Damaged or worn out muffler can cause fire or explosion.
Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as necessary.
NEVER store unit with fuel in fuel tank, inside a building where any ignition sources are present.
Shut off fuel and allow engine to cool completely before storing in closed area or covering unit.
Clean grass and debris from unit, especially from around muffler and engine, to help prevent fires.
For extended storage, shut off fuel and clean unit thoroughly. See engine manual for proper storage.
Lower cutting deck unless a positive mechanical lock is used.
Use only attachments or accessories designed for your unit.
Check all hardware at regular intervals, especially blade attachment bolts. Keep all hardware properly tightened.
