POTENTIAL HAZARD
Without the grass deflector, discharge
cover, or complete grass catcher assembly
mounted in place, you and others are
exposed to blade contact and thrown
debris.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Contact with rotating mower blade(s) and
thrown debris will cause injury or death.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
NEVER remove the grass deflector from
the mower because the grass deflector
routes material down toward the turf. If the
grass deflector is ever damaged, replace it
immediately.
Never put your hands or feet under the
mower.
Never try to clear discharge area or mower
blades unless you move the power take off
(PTO) to "OFF" and rotate the ignition key
to "OFF." Also remove the key and pull the
wire off the spark plug(s).
