Keep guards and other safety devices in place, properly mounted, and in
working order. A guard or other safety device that is loose, damaged, or is not
functioning correctly may result in personal injury.
◾
Keep all cooling air inlets clear of debris. Blocked air inlets and debris may
result in overheating or risk of fire.
◾
Do not use the lawnmower if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any lawnmower
that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
◾
Do not operate the lawnmower in wet grass. Walk, never run. This reduces the
risk of slipping and falling which may result in personal injury.
◾
Do not operate the lawnmower on excessively steep slopes. This reduces the
risk of loss of control, slipping and falling which may result in personal injury.
◾
Do not force the lawnmower. Use the correct lawnmower for your application.
The correct lawnmower will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
◾
Be aware of the mower and attachment discharge direction and do not point
the mower discharge at anyone. Thrown objects can cause personal injury.

Use extreme caution when reversing or pulling the lawnmower towards you.
Always be aware of your surroundings. This reduces the risk of tripping during
operation.
◾
When working on slopes, always be sure of your footing, always work across
the face of slopes, never up or down and exercise extreme caution when
changing direction. This reduces the risk of loss of control, slipping and falling
which may result in personal injury.
◾
Operate the disabling device and/or remove all battery packs, if removable,
from the lawnmower before making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing the lawnmower. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the lawnmower accidentally.
◾
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control
of the lawnmower in unexpected situations.

Check the grass catcher frequently for wear or deterioration. A worn or
damaged grass catcher may increase the risk of personal injury.
