Children Safety; Maintenance Safety - Husqvarna 968999268 Operator's Manual

Children:
•
Serious accidents may occur if you fail to be
on guard for children in the vicinity of the ma-
chine. Children are often attracted to the ma-
chine and mowing work. Never assume that
children will stay put where you last saw them.
•
Keep children away from the mowing area and
under close supervision by another adult.
•
Keep an eye out and shut off the machine if
children enter the work area.
• Before and during a reversing maneuver, look
backward and downward for small children.
• Never allow a child to ride with you. They can
fall off and injure themselves seriously or pre-
vent risk-free maneuvering of the machine.
• Never allow children to operate the machine.
• Be particularly cautious near corners, bushes,
trees, or other objects that block your view.
Maintenance:

ing by removing the ignition key before mak-
ing any adjustments or performing mainte-
nance.

sult in personal injury or fire.

purpose.

Never remove the fuel tank cap and never fill
the fuel tank while the engine is running.
