• Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure
the equipment is in safe working condition.

proper operation regularly.
• After striking a foreign object, stop the engine,
and thoroughly inspect the mower for any
damage. Repair the damage before restarting
and operating the mower.
• Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the
blades or wear gloves, and use extra caution
when servicing blades.
• Check brake operation frequently. Adjust and
service as required.
• Engine components become hot during
operation and can cause a burn. Allow to cool
down before touching.
• Do not change the engine governor settings or
overspeed the engine. Excessive engine
speeds are dangerous.
• Observe proper disposal laws and regulations.
Improper disposal of fluids and materials can
harm the environment and the ecology.
• Prior to disposal, determine the proper method
to dispose of waste from your local
Environmental Protection Agency. Recycling
centers are established to properly dispose of
materials in an environmentally safe fashion.
• Use proper containers when draining fluids. Do
not use food or beverage containers that may
mislead someone into drinking from them.
Properly dispose of the containers immediately
following the draining of fluids.
• DO NOT pour oil or other fluids into the ground,
down a drain or into a stream, pond, lake or
other body of water. Observe Environmental
Protection Agency regulations when disposing
of oil, fuel, coolant, brake fluid, filters, batteries,
tires and other harmful waste.
• We do not recommend the use of a pressure
washer or garden hose to clean your unit. They
may cause damage to electrical components;
spindles; pulleys; bearings; or the engine. The
use of water will result in shortened life and
reduce serviceability.
