SAFE MOWING PRACTICES

For your safety, keep all four wheels on the ground and be careful to
avoid losing your footing and your control of the mower. Keep a firm
grip on the handlebar, and walk, never run, with the mower. Be very
careful when mowing uneven or rough ground.
If stuck, do not kick or shove the mower with your foot. Use the
handlebar to control the mower.
The blade is sharp and spins at high speed.
A spinning blade can cut you severely and can amputate fingers and
toes.
• Wear protective footwear.
• Keep your hands and feet away from the cutter housing while the
engine is running.
• Stop the engine before performing any adjustment, inspection, or
maintenance.
Slopes
Mow across slopes, not up and down. Avoid steep slopes (more than
20°), and be careful when changing direction. Mowing on a slope
when the grass is damp or wet could cause you to slip, fall, and lose
control of the mower.
MAXIMUM SLOPE 20°
