have been given rides in the past may
suddenly appear in the mowing area
for another ride and be run over or
backed over by the machine.
Keep children out of the mowing area
and in the watchful care of a respon-
sible adult other than the operator.
Be alert and turn machine off if a child
enters the area.
Before
and while
backing,
look behind
and down
for small
children.

dis-
engage
the blades
and proceed
slowly
straight

going
uphill,
disengage
blades,
shift into reverse
and back down
slowly.
Do not turn on slopes
unless
neces-
sary, and then, turn slowly
