Model MJ401C
A damaged blade or worn blade nut may break off the
mower assembly and cause serious injury. Replace the
damaged blade or blade nut before using the mower.
1. Avoid dangerous conditions – Do not use the mower in
the rain or when the grass is damp or wet.
2. Keep children, bystanders and pets away – Always
keep children and spectators a safe distance away from
the mower during operation and as the machine cools.
3. Dress properly – Always wear personal safety gear
(i.e. glasses, rubber gloves, protective footwear and
dust masks) and proper clothing when using the mower.
Loose clothing, long hair or jewelry may get caught in the
moving parts.
4. Use the right appliance – Do not use the lawn mower
for any applications other than those for which it was
intended.
5. Do not force the lawn mower – It will perform better with
less likelihood of personal or mechanical injury if it is used
at the rate for which it was designed.
6. Do not overreach – Keep proper footing and balance at
all times.
7. Stay alert – Always be alert and watch what you are
doing. Use common sense. Do not operate the lawn
mower when you are tired or under the influence of
alcohol or drugs.
8. Disconnect the lawn mower – Turn OFF and remove
safety key when the mower is not in use, before servicing
it, when changing accessories and when performing any
other maintenance task.
9. Store idle lawn mower indoors – When not in use, the
lawn mower should be stored indoors in a dry, locked
place out of the reach of children.
10. Maintain the lawn mower with care – Keep cutting
edges sharp and clean for best and safest performance.
11. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection – Protective equipment such as safety glasses,
a dusk mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hard hat, and
hearing protection, when used for appropriate conditions,
will reduce the possibility of personal injuries.
12. Avoid unintentional starting – Ensure the switch is in
the OFF position before insert the safety key, or before
picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or charging power tools with the
switch ON can lead to accidents.
13. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before starting
the power tool – A wrench or a key left attached to
a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
