Operating Safety
Congratulations on purchasing a superior-quality piece of lawn and gar-
den equipment. Our products are designed and manufactured to meet or
exceed all industry standards for safety.
Do not operate this machine unless you have familiarized yourself with
it. Reading and understanding this operator's manual is a way to do
just that.
Power equipment is only as safe as the operator. If it is misused, or not
properly maintained, it can be dangerous! Remember, you are responsi-
ble for your safety and that of those around you.
Use common sense, and think through what you are doing. If you are
not sure that the task you are about to perform can be safely done with
the equipment you have chosen, ask a professional: contact your local
authorized dealer.
Tragic accidents can occur with children. Do not
allow them anywhere near the area of operation.
Children are often attracted to the unit and mowing
activity. Never assume that children will remain
where you last saw them. If there is a risk that chil-
dren may enter the area where you are mowing,
have another responsible adult watch them.
