GENERAL OPERATION
Read, understand, and follow all instructions in this manual
and on the mower before starting.
Only allow responsible adults, who are familiar with the
instructions, to operate the mower.
Clear the area of objects such as rocks, toys, wire, etc., that
could be picked up and thrown by the blade.
Be sure the area is clear of bystanders before mowing. Stop
mower if anyone enters the area.
Never direct discharged material toward anyone. Avoid
discharging against a wall or obstruction. Material may
ricochet back toward the operator. Stop the blade(s) when
crossing gravel surfaces.
Do not operate the mower without either the entire grass
catcher or the deflector in place. This will decrease the
possibility of injury from objects being thrown by the mower
blades.
Never carry passengers.
Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary. Always
look down and behind before and while backing.
Never leave a running mower unattended. Always turn off
blades, set park brake, stop engine and remove key before
dismounting.
The engine exhaust from this product contains chemicals
known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth de-
fects or other reproductive harm.
