manufactured to meet or exceed all industry standards for
safety.
Do not operate this machine unless you have been trained.
Reading and understanding this operator's manual is a way to
train yourself.
Power equipment is only as safe as the operator. If it is
misused, or not properly maintained, it can be dangerous!
Remember, you are responsible for your safety and that of
those around you.
Use common sense, and think through what you are doing.
If you are not sure that the task you are about to perform can
be safely done with the equipment you have chosen, ask a
professional: contact your local authorized dealer.
Read the Manual
The operator's manual contains important safety information
you need to be aware of BEFORE you operate your unit as
well as DURING operation.
Safe operating techniques, an explanation of the product's
features and controls, and maintenance information is
included to help you get the most out of your equipment
investment.
Be sure to completely read the Safety Rules and Information
found on the following pages. Also completely read the
Operation section.
Children
Tragic accidents can occur with children. Do not allow them
anywhere near the area of operation. Children are often
attracted to the unit and mowing activity. Never assume that
children will remain where you last saw them. If there is a risk
that children may enter the area where you are mowing, have
another responsible adult watch them.

Slope Operation
Operation on slopes can be dangerous. Using the unit on
a slope that is too steep where you do not have adequate
wheel traction (and control) can cause sliding, loss of
steering, control, and possible rollover. You should not
operate on a slope greater than 15 degrees (a 5.4 foot rise
over a 20 foot length).
Avoid turning down slopes; if possible turn up slopes. Avoid
sudden turns or rapid speed changes. Reduce speed and use
extreme caution on ALL slopes.
Also, note that the surface condition you are on can greatly
impact your ability to safely operate this machine. Operating
on wet or slippery slopes can cause sliding and loss of
steering and control. Do not operate on slopes that are
slippery, wet, or have soft soil conditions.
If you feel unsure about operating the unit on a slope, don't
do it. It's not worth the risk.
Thrown Objects
This unit has spinning mower blades. These blades can pick
up and throw debris that could seriously injure a bystander.
Be sure to clean up the area to be mowed and remove
objects that could be thrown by the blade BEFORE you start
mowing.
Do not operate this unit without the entire grass catcher or
discharge guard (deflector) in place.
Also, do not allow anyone in the area while the unit is running!
If someone does enter the area, shut the unit off immediately
until they leave.
