SAFETY RULES
SAFE OPERATION PRACTICES FOR RIDE-ON MOWERS
NEVER allow children to operate the
machine.
Be sure the area is clear of other people
before mowing. Stop machine if anyone
enters the area.
Never carry passengers or children even
with the blades off.
Do not drive in reverse unless absolutely
necessary. Always look down and behind
before and while backing.
Never carry children. They may fall off and
be seriously injured or interfere with safe
machine operation.
Keep children out of the mowing area and
under the watchful care of another respon-
sible adult.
Be alert and turn machine off if children
enter the area.
Before and when backing, look behind and
down for small children.
Mow up and down slopes (10 ° Max), not
across.
Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree
limbs, etc.
Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven
terrain could overturn the machine. Tall
grass can hide obstacles.
Use a slow speed while on slope or hill.
Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires
lose traction, disengage the blades and
proceed slowly straight down the slope.
If machine stops while going uphill, disen-
gage blades, shift into reverse and back
down slowly.
Do not turn on slopes unless necessary,
and then, turn slowly and gradually downhill,
if possible.
CAUTION
In order to prevent accidental starting when
setting up, transporting, adjusting or mak-
ing repairs, always disconnect spark plug
wire and place wire where it cannot contact
spark plug.
CAUTION
Do not coast down a hill in neutral, you may
lose control of the mower.
