Refuel With Care; Wear Protective Clothing; Turn Engine Off When Not Mowing; Operation On Slopes - Honda HARMONY H1011R Owner's Manual

MOWER SAFETY
Refuel with Care
Gasoline is extremely flammable, and gasoline vapor can
explode. Allow the engine to cool if the riding mower has
been in operation. Refuel only outdoors in a well-ventilated
area with the engine OFF. Never fill the fuel tank beyond the
maximum fill mark. Never smoke near gasoline, and keep
other flames and sparks away. Always store gasoline in an
approved container.
Wear Protective Clothing
Wearing protective clothing will reduce your risk of injury.
Long pants and eye protection reduce the risk of injuries
from thrown objects. Sturdy shoes with aggressive soles
provide better traction on the riding mower's platform and
pedals.
Turn Engine Off When Not Mowing
If you need to leave the mower for any reason, even just to
inspect the lawn ahead, always turn the engine off. And take
the key if you go farther away.
Operation on Slopes
This riding mower is intended for use on relatively flat
terrain. Operating the riding mower on slopes exceeding 10
degrees (17% grade) could cause the mower to tip over.
Always mow up and down slopes, never across. When
mowing up and down slopes, empty the optional grass bags
when they are half full. Never use the optional grass bags
without the front weight installed.
Mowing Conditions
Mow only in daylight or good artificial light. Do not drive the
riding mower at night or under poor light conditions.
Mowing Near Roads
Always watch for vehicle traffic when operating the riding
mower near roads and driveways. Never drive the riding
mower on public roads.
