CHILDREN AND BYSTANDERS

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to
the presence of children or bystanders.
• Keep the area of operation clear of all persons,
particularly small children, and pets.
• Use extreme care when approaching blind corners,
doorways, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may
obscure your vision of a child or bystander. Keep
children, bystanders, helpers and pets at least 100
feet (30m) from the mower while it is in operation.
Stop the machine if anyone enters the area.
• Never allow children under 14 years old to operate a
power mower. Operators 14 years old and over
should fully read and understand the operator's
manual and safety rules. Only responsible
individuals who are familiar with these rules of safe
operation should be allowed to use this machine.

SERVICE

• When servicing the mower, use only replacement
parts that are listed in this manual. The use of parts
that do not meet the original equipment
specifications may lead to improper performance,
and may compromise safety.
• Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, verify that
the blade and all moving parts have come to a
complete stop. In order to prevent accidental start-
ups, disconnect the power cord when the mower is
not in use.
• Follow the instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories.
• Inspect the lawn mower's power cord and extension
cords regularly, and replace them immediately if
they are damaged. In order to obtain replacement
parts, call the service center.
• Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil and
grease.
• In order to reduce the risk of fire, keep the motor
free of grass, leaves, and debris build-up.
• Check the blade and the motor mounting bolts for
proper tightness frequently. Visually inspect blade
for damage (e.g., bent, cracked, or worn).
• For best and safest performance, maintain the
mower with care. Keep the mower blade sharp and
clean. Mower blades are sharp, and can cut. Wrap
the blades or wear gloves, and use extra caution
when servicing.
English
• Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight in order to be
sure that the mower is in safe working condition.
• Do not tamper with safety devices. Check them
regularly for proper operation.
• After striking a foreign object, stop the motor and
disconnect the power cord. Thoroughly inspect the
mower for any damage. Repair any damage before
operating the mower.
• The grass catcher components, discharge cover,
and trail shield are subject to wear and damage,
which could expose moving parts or allow objects to
be thrown. As a safety precaution, check the
components frequently and immediately replace any
parts that show signs of wear, or that are cracked or
broken. Use original equipment manufacturer's
(OEM) parts only, as listed in this manual.
• When it is not in use, store the mower indoors in a
dry area, locked up or out of the reach of children.
2.5 DOUBLE INSULATED LAWN
MOWER
• Double insulation eliminates the need for the usual
three-wire grounded power cord and grounded
power supply system. Wherever there is electric
current in the mower, there are two complete sets of
insulation to protect the user. All exposed metal
parts are isolated from the internal metal motor
components by protecting insulation.
Servicing a lawn mower with double insulation
requires extreme care and knowledge of the system,
and should only be performed by a qualified service
technician. If repairs are required, call the service
center. Always use original factory replacement parts
when servicing.
IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY! To restrict the use of
this mower to people who have read and understand
the warnings and instructions that appear in this
manual and on the mower and who will follow them.
