Preparation
(Continued from previous page)
3. Data indicates that operators age 60 and
above, are involved in a large percentage
of mower-related injuries. These operators
should evaluate their ability to operate the
mower safely enough to protect them-
selves and others from serious injury.
4. Handle fuel with extra care. Fuels are flam-
mable and vapors are explosive. Use only
an approved fuel container. DO NOT
remove fuel cap or add fuel with engine
running. Add fuel outdoors only with
engine stopped and cool. Clean spilled fuel
and oil from machine. DO NOT smoke.
5. Check the area to be mowed and remove
all objects such as toys, wire, rocks, limbs
and other objects that could cause injury if
thrown by blade or interfere with mowing.
Also note the location of holes, stumps,
and other possible hazards.
6. Keep people and pets out of the mowing
area. Immediately, STOP Blade, Stop
engine and Stop mower if anyone enters
the area.
7. Check shields, deflectors, switches, blade
controls and other safety devices frequent-
ly for proper operation and location.
8. Make sure all safety decals are clearly leg-
ible. Replace if damaged.
9. Protect yourself when mowing and wear
safety glasses, a dust mask, long pants,
and substantial footwear. DO NOT mow
barefooted or with sandals.
10. Know how to STOP blade and engine
quickly in preparation for emergencies.
11. Use extra care when loading or unloading
the machine into a trailer or truck.
12. Check grass catcher components frequent-
ly for signs of wear or deterioration and
replace as needed to prevent injury from
thrown objects going through weak or torn
spots.
Safe Handling of Gasoline
To avoid personal injury or property damage,
use extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline
is extremely flammable and the vapors are
explosive.
1. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and
other sources of ignition.
2. Use only an approved fuel container.
3. DO NOT remove fuel cap or add fuel with
the engine running. Allow the engine to
cool before refueling.
4. DO NOT refuel the machine indoors.
5. DO NOT store the machine or fuel contain-
er inside where there is an open flame,
spark or pilot light such as on a water
heater or other appliances.
6. DO NOT fill fuel containers inside a vehicle
or on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic
liner. Always place the containers on the
ground away from the vehicle before filling.
7. Remove gas-powered equipment from the
vehicle or trailer and refuel it on the
ground. If this is not possible, then refuel
equipment using a portable container,
rather than a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
8. DO NOT start gas powered equipment in
enclosed vehicles or trailers.
9. 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
10. If fuel is spilled on clothing, change cloth-
ing immediately.
11. DO NOT overfill a fuel tank. Replace fuel
cap and tighten securely.
Operation
1. DO NOT put hands or feet near or under
rotating parts. Keep clear of discharge
area while engine is running.
2. STOP engine when crossing gravel drives,
walks, or roads, and under any conditions
where thrown objects might be a hazard.
3. Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.
4. DO NOT operate mower while under the
influence of alcohol or drugs.
5. After striking a foreign object or if mower
vibrates abnormally, STOP the engine, dis-
connect and secure spark plug wire.
Inspect the mower for any damage and
repair the damage before starting.
6. DO NOT mow near drop offs, ditches or
embankments. Operator could lose footing
or balance.
7. STAY ALERT for holes and other hidden
hazards. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
Keep away from ditches, washouts, cul-
verts, fences and protruding objects.
8. DO NOT mow on wet grass. Always be
sure of your footing. Keep a firm hold on
the handle and walk, never run. Slipping
could cause injury.
9. ALWAYS stay behind handle when engine
(motor) is running.
10. DO NOT leave the machine with the
engine running. STOP BLADE and STOP
ENGINE before leaving the operators posi-
tion for any reason.
11. Before cleaning, repairing or inspecting
make certain engine, blade and all moving
parts have STOPPED. Disconnect and
secure spark plug wire away from plug to
prevent accidental starting.
12. STOP engine and wait until the blade
comes to complete STOP before removing
grass bag and/or clearing grass.
13. DO NOT operate mower without the entire
grass catcher, or guards in place discharge
guard, rear guard or other safety devices in
place and working. DO NOT point dis-
charge at people, passing cars, windows
or doors.
14. DO NOT discharge material against a wall
or obstruction. Material may ricochet back
towards the operator.
15. Slow down before turning.
16. Watch out for traffic when near or crossing
roadways.
17. DO NOT operate engine in enclosed
areas. Engine exhaust gases contain car-
bon monoxide, a deadly poison.

manufacturer. See manufacturer's instruc-
tions for proper operation and installation
of accessories.

Maintenance and Storage
1. DO NOT store mower or fuel container
inside where fumes may reach an open
flame, spark or pilot light such as in a
water heater, furnace, clothes dryer or
other gas appliance. Allow engine to cool
before storing machine in an enclosure.
Store fuel container out of reach of chil-
dren in a well ventilated, unoccupied
building.
2. Keep mower and engine free of grass,
leaves or excess grease to reduce fire haz-
ard and engine overheating.
3. When draining fuel tank, drain fuel into an
approved container outdoors and away
from open flame.
4. Keep all bolts, especially blade bolts, nuts
and screws properly tight. Check that all
cotter pins are in proper position.
5. Always provide adequate ventilation when
running engine. Engine exhaust gases
contain carbon monoxide, a deadly poison.
6. Service engine and make adjustments only
when engine is stopped. Removed spark
plug wire from spark plug and secure wire
away from spark plug to prevent accidental
starting.
7. DO NOT change engine governor speed
settings or overspeed engine.
8. Check grass bag assembly frequently for
wear or deterioration to avoid thrown
objects and exposure to moving parts.
Replace with new bag if loose seams or
tears are evident. Replace slider or bag
adapter if broken or cracked.
9. Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap
the blades or wear heavy leather gloves
and use CAUTION when handling them.
10. DO NOT test for spark by grounding spark
plug next to spark plug hole; spark plug
could ignite gas exiting engine.
11. Have machine serviced by an authorized
dealer at least once a year and have the
dealer install any new safety devices.
12. Use only factory authorized replacement
parts or like parts when making repairs.
