DURING MOWER OPERATION
1. The revolutionary Dixon mower attracts many admiring
neighbors. But when mowing, all persons especially
children and pets should be cleared from the mowing
area.
2. Wear appropriate, safe clothing when mowing close-
fitting jeans or slacks and heavy leather or safety shoes
with rough soles. Never use any kind of mower with bare
feet or open sandals, not even an old push-type model!
3. When grass is wet or slippery, do not use any riding
mower.
4. Always mow at the slowest speed that will cut satisfac
torily.

deflector which directs downwards all blade propelled
objects, keep persons clear of the discharge chute.

of gravity and weight biased to the rear; however, caution
should be exercised when mowing hills or slopes with
any
mower.
