1. Safety Instructions
1.1 Training
a) Read the operating and service instruction
manual carefully. Be thoroughly familiar
with the controls and the proper use of the
equipment.
b) Never allow children to operate a power mower.
c) Keep the area of operation clear of all persons,
particularly small children, and pets.
d) Do not use a mower for any job except that for
which it is intended.
1.2 Preparation
a) Thoroughly inspect the area where the
equipment is to be used and remove all stones,
sticks, wires, bones, and other foreign objects.
b) Do not operate the equipment when barefoot
or wearing sandals. Always wear substantial
footwear.
c) Disengage the self-propelled mechanism
or drive clutch on units so equipped before
starting the motor.
d) Never attempt to make a wheel height
adjustment while the motor is running.
e) Mow only in daylight or in good artificial light.
f) Never operate the equipment on wet grass.
Always be sure of your footing. Keep a firm
hold on the handle and walk, never run.
1.3 Operation
a) Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating
parts. Keep clear of the discharge opening at all
times.
b) Stop the blade(s) when crossing gravel drives,
walks, or roads.
c) After striking a foreign object, stop the motor,
unplug, thoroughly inspect the mower for
any damage, and repair the damage before

the equipment, before cleaning the mower
housing, and before making any repairs or
inspections.
f) Shut the motor off and wait until the blade
comes to a complete stop before removing the
grass catcher or before unclogging the chute.

down. Exercise extreme caution when changing
direction on slopes. Do not mow excessively
steep slopes.

guards, plates, or other safety protective
devices in place.

1.4 Maintenance
a) Check the blade and the motor mounting bolts
at frequent intervals for proper tightness.
b) Keep al nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure
the equipment is in safe working condition.
c) Check bag frequently for deterioration and wear,
and replace worn bags. Check that replacement
bags comply with the original manufacturer's
recommendations or specifications.
d) Replace the blade if it is bent or cracked. An
unbalanced blade causes vibration that could
damage the motor drive unit or cause personal
injury.
e) Sharpen a dull blade equally at each end to
maintain the balance.
f) Clear the blade thoroughly and check its balance
by supporting it horizontally on a thin nail
through its centre hole. The mail should also
be in a horizontal position. If either end of the
blade rotates downward, remove some metal
from the heavy or lower end until the blade
is balanced. It is balanced when neither end
drops.
