Do not allow adults to operate the Mower without proper
instruction.

● KEEP the area of operation clear of all by standers,
particularly small children and pets.

● DO NOT operate the Mower if under the influence of
alcohol, medication or when tired or ill.

PREPARATION TO MOW

● THOROUGHLY inspect the area where the Mower is to
be used and remove all stones, sticks, wires, bones and other
foreign objects.

● DO NOT operate the Mower when barefoot or wearing
open sandals. Always wear appropriate footwear.

● CHECK the fuel before starting the engine. Do not fill the
Gasoline Tank indoors or when the Engine is running .Wait
until the Engine has cooled for several minutes after running.
Clean off any spilled gasoline before starting the engine.

● KEEP

the Blade Drive Lever in the disengaged position and
shift the Transmission into neutral before starting the engine.
Never make a height adjustment or any Mower adjustment
while the engine is running.

● NEVER operate the Mower in wet grass. Always be sure
of your footing; keep a firm hold on the handles and walk;
never run.

OPERATING THE MOWER

● ALWAYS wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side
shields when operating the Mower.

● DO NOT change the Engine Governor setting or over
speed the engine.

● DO NOT put hands or feet near or under rotating parts.
Keep clear of the discharge opening at all times.

● TEST the operation of Blade Drive Lever before each use.
If Blades rotate longer than three seconds after the controls
are disengaged, stop the Engine and immediately contact
your local Worldlawn authorized dealer or call the factory
for instructions. DO NOT use the Mower until the
mechanism is repaired.

● MAKING TURNS :The Mower turns easily by squeezing
the right of left lever.

● WAT C H for traffic and STOP the Mower Blade when
crossing gravel drives, walks or roadways.

● MOW only in daylight or in good artificial light.
Always run the Engine at the fast speed setting for best
mowing performance.

● STOP the Engine, after striking a foreign object,
disconnect the spark plug wire, thoroughly inspect the
Mower for any damage and repair the damage before
restarting and operating the Mower.
If the Mower should start to vibrate abnormally, STOP the
Engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and check
immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning
of trouble.

● STOP the Engine whenever you leave the Mower, or
during cleaning, repairing or inspecting. Make certain the
Blades and all moving parts have stopped. Disconnect the
spark plug wire, and keep the wire away from the plug to
prevent accidental starting.

● MOW across the face of slopes; never up and down.
