Operation - Honda HRA-21 Owner's Manual

OPERATION
The HRA21 may be used with the grass bag or dis-
charge adapter.
The following suggestions and rules are intended
to help you operate your Honda HRA21 under the
safest conditions possible. Be alert and exercise the
same care using the mower as you would using any
other power tool.
* Be especially careful when mowing uneven or rough
ground. The mower may tilt, exposing the blade,
and hidden objects could be thrown by the blade.
Keep all four wheels on the ground.

* Use extra care when mowing around objects to
keep the blade from striking them. Never delibera-
tely mow over any object.
* Stop the engine immediately if the blade hits an
object or the mower starts to vibrate. Remove the
spark plug cap (keep the wire away from the plug)
and inspect for damage.
NOTE:
Mow across slopes. Do not mow excessively steep
slopes.
Always push, never pull, a mower with the engine
running. Control direction by the handle, not by
foot pressure on the mower housing.
Keep a firm hold on the handle and walk, never
run, with the mower. Don't lag behind the ma-
chine or let it pull you.
(SDA and SDAW TYPES) Do not use the drive
clutch when maneuvering around trees, etc. Release
the clutch and push the mower while using the
ROTO-STOP for better directional control.
