TRAINING

1. Read the Operating and Service Instruction Manual carefully. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and proper use of the equipment.

2. Never allow children to operate a power mower.

3. Keep the area of operation clear of all persons,

particularly small children, and pets.

PREPARATION

1. Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to

be used and remove all stones, sticks, wire, bones and

other foreign objects.

2. Do not operate equipment when barefoot or wearing

open sandals. Always wear substantial footwear.

3. Check fuel before starting engine. Do not fill gasoline tank indoors, when engine is running, or while engine

is still hot. Wipe off any spilled gasoline before starting

engine.

4. Disengage self-propelled mechanism or drive clutch on units so equipped before starting engine (motor).

5. Never attempt to make a wheel height adjustment while engine (motor) is running.

6. Mow only in daylight or in good artificial light.

7. Never operate equipment in wet grass. Always be sure of your footing; keep a firm hold on the handle and walk; never run.

OPERATION

1. Do not change engine governor settings or overspeed

engine.

2. Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts.

Keep clear of discharge opening at all times.

3. Stop blade(s) when crossing gravel drive, walks or roads.

4. After striking a foreign object, stop the engine (motor),

remove wire from spark plug, thoroughly inspect the mower for any damage, and repair the damage before restarting and operating the mower.

5. If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the engine (motor) and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

6. Stop engine (motor) whenever you leave the equipment, before cleaning mower housing, and when making any

repairs or inspections.

7. When cleaning, repairing or inspecting, make certain

blade and ail moving parts have stopped. Disconnect

spark plug wire and keep wire away from plug to prevent accidental starting.

8. Do not run engine (motor) indoors.

9. Shut engine (motor) off and wait until blade comes to a complete stop before removing grass catcher and/or

unclogging chute.

10. Mow across the face of slopes, never up-and-down. Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on

slopes. Do not mow excessively steep slopes.

11. Always disconnect electric mowers (line operated) before cleaning, repairing, or adjusting.

12. Never operate mower without proper guards, plates or

other safety protective devices in place.

13. Keep washout ports and other mower housing service openings closed when mowing.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

1. Check blade and engine mounting bolts at frequent

intervals for proper tightness.

2. Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure equip ment is in safe working condition.

3. Never store equipment with gasoline in the tank inside of a building where fumes may reach an open flame or spark. Allow engine to cool before storing in any enclosure.

4. To reduce fire hazard keep engine free of grass, leaves or excessive grease.

5. Check grass catcher bags frequently for wear or deterio

ration. Replace with new bags for safety protection.
