fires. Clean up oil or fuel spills.
•
Allow the engine to cool before storing the machine in
any enclosure.
•
Never store the machine or fuel container where there is
an open flame, spark, or pilot light, such as on a water
heater or on other appliances.
Hauling Safety

Use care when loading or unloading the machine into a
trailer or truck.

Use full-width ramps for loading the machine into a
trailer or truck. Do not exceed a 15° angle between the
ramp and the trailer or truck.

The water will splash into the path of the blade,
cleaning out the clippings.
2. When no more clippings come out, stop the water and
move the machine to a dry area.
3. Run the engine for a few minutes to dry the underside
of the machine to prevent it from rusting.
