Safety And Instruction Decals - Excel Two Bag Catcher Operator's Manual

 Stop the engine before removing the grass catcher or
unclogging the discharge chute. Never clear the
discharge chute with the engine running. Turn off the
engine and be sure the blades have stopped before
cleaning. Use a stick to clear a plugged discharge
area. Never use your hand!
 Clean flammable material from the machine. Prevent
fires by keeping the engine compartment, exhaust area,
battery, fuel line, fuel tank and operator's station clean of
accumulated trash, grass clippings, and other debris.
Always clean up spilled fuel and oil.
 Grass collection system components are subject to
wear, damage and deterioration, which could expose
moving parts or allow objects to be thrown. Frequently
check components and replace with manufacturer's
recommended parts when necessary.
 Never direct discharged material toward anyone. Avoid
discharging material against a wall or obstruction.
Material may ricochet back toward the operator.
Always disengage the blades and wait for them to stop
before crossing gravel drives, walks or roads.
