• To reduce fire hazard, keep the
machine free of grass, leaves or
other debris build-up. Clean up oil or
fuel spillage. Allow machine to cool
at least 5 minutes before storing.
• Before cleaning, repairing or
inspecting, make certain the blade
and all moving parts have stopped.
Disconnect the spark plug wire, and
keep the wire away from the spark
plug to prevent accidental starting.

mounting bolts at frequent intervals
for proper tightness. Also, visually
inspect blade for damage (e.g.,
excessive wear, bent, cracked).
Replace with blade which meets
original equipment specifications.
• Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight
to be sure the equipment is in safe
working condition.

subject to wear, damage and
deterioration, which could expose
moving parts or allow objects to be
thrown. For your safety protection,
frequently check components and
replace with manufacturer’s
recommended parts when
necessary.

cut. Wrap the blade(s) or wear

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.

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.

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
