This cutting machine is capable of amputating hands and
feet and throwing objects. Failure to observe all safety
instructions could result in serious injury or death.
Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these
instructions to operate the mower. Local regulations
can restrict the age of the operator.
Keep the area clear of all bystanders, children, and pets
while mowing. Stop machine if anyone enters the area.
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert
to the presence of children. Children are often attracted
to the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume
that children will remain where you last saw them.
• Keep children out of the mowing area and under
the watchful care of a responsible adult other than
the operator.
• Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters the
area.
• Never allow children to operate the machine.
• Use extra care when approaching blind corners,
shrubs, trees, or other objects that may block your
view of a child.
Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for
accidents or hazards occurring to other people or their
property.
Do not operate the equipment while barefoot or when
wearing sandals or similar lightweight footwear. Wear
protective footwear that will protect your feet and
improve your footing on slippery surfaces.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be
caught in moving parts.
Always wear safety glasses with side shields. Everyday
glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They are NOT
safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
eye injury. Use face mask if operation is dusty.
Wear safety glasses or goggles when operating this
product.
Use the right appliance. Do not use the lawn mower for
any job except that for which it is intended.
Clear the work area before each use. Remove all objects
such as rocks, sticks, wire, bones, toys, or other objects
which can be thrown by the blade. Stay behind the
handle when the engine is running.
Replace faulty mufflers.
Before each use, visually inspect the lawn mower to
ensure blades, blade bolts, and cutter assembly are not
worn or damaged.
Do not operate the engine in a confined space where
dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect.
Operate the lawn mower only in daylight or good artificial
light.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

CZ RU RO PL SLO HR TR EST LT
Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common
sense when operating the lawn mower. Do not operate
the mower while tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating the lawn mower may result in serious personal
injury.
Do not use the lawn mower in damp or wet conditions
or operate in the rain.
Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Over-
reaching can result in loss of balance.
Mow across the face of slopes, never up and down.
Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on
slopes.
Do not mow on wet grass or excessively steep slopes.
Poor footing could cause a slip and fall accident. Walk,
never run.
Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments.
Do not pull the mower backward unless absolutely
necessary. If you must back the mower away from a
wall or obstruction, first look down and behind to avoid
tripping.
Stop the engine if the lawnmower has to be tilted for
transportation when crossing surfaces other than grass,
and when transporting the lawnmower to and from the
area to be mowed.
Do not operate the mower without the entire grass
catcher, discharge guard, rear guard, or other safety
protective devices in place and working.
Do not change the engine governor settings or over-
speed the engine.
Start the engine carefully according to instructions and
with feet well away from the blade.
Do not tilt the lawnmower when starting the engine.
Do not start the engine when standing in front of the
discharge chute.
Keep hands and feet away from cutting area. Keep clear
of the discharge opening at all times. Never pick up or carry a lawnmower while the engine is
running.
Do not leave the mower unattended while running.
Avoid holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden objects.
Uneven terrain could cause a slip and fall accident.
Plan your mowing pattern to avoid discharge of material
toward roads, sidewalks, bystanders, and the like. Also,
avoid discharging material against a wall or obstruction,
which may cause the material to ricochet back toward
the operator.
Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs,
trees, or other objects that may block your view.
