Operating Safety
Congratulations on purchasing a superior-quality piece of lawn
and garden equipment. Our products are designed and manu-
factured to meet or exceed all industry standards for safety.
Power equipment is only as safe as the operator. If it is mis-
used, or not properly maintained, it can be dangerous!
Remember, you are responsible for your safety and that of
those around you.
Use common sense, and think through what you are doing. If
you are not sure that the task you are about to perform can be
safely done with the equipment you have chosen, ask a
professional: contact your local authorized dealer.
Read the Manual
The operator’s manual contains important safety information you need
to be aware of BEFORE you operate your unit as well as DURING
operation.
Safe operating techniques, an explanation of the product’s features
and controls, and maintenance information is included to help you
get the most out of your equipment investment.
Be sure to completely read the Safety Rules and Information found on
the following pages. Also completely read the Operation section.
Children
Tragic accidents can occur with children. Do not allow
them anywhere near the area of operation. Children are
often attracted to the unit and snowthrowing activity.
Never assume that children will remain where you last
saw them. If there is a risk that children may enter the
area where you are operating the unit, have another
responsible adult watch them.
DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO OPERATE THIS UNIT!
This encourages them to come near the unit in the future
while it is running, and they could be seriously hurt.
They may then approach the unit when you are not
expecting it, and you may run over them.
