WARNING
Before you start work,
examine the area and
clear it of toys, stones,
glass, fence wire, metal,
trash or other solid
objects. The cutting blade
could throw objects of
this kind.
WARNING
Your lawn mower is a one-person
machine. Do not allow other persons in
the general work area, even when
starting.
During Operation
Holding and Controlling the Power Tool
Always hold the unit firmly with both
hands on the handle bar and switch
lever while you are working. Wrap your
fingers and thumbs around the handle
bar and switch lever when cutting.
Never attempt to operate your power
tool with one hand. Loss of control of the
lawn mower resulting in serious or fatal
injury may result.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of cut
injuries, never put hands
or feet near or under the
machine or near ejection
chute, keeping them.
Never touch a moving
cutting blade with your
hand or any other part of
your body. To reduce the
risk of injury, never
attempt to clear clippings
or debris from cutting
blade, deck or ejection
chute without first switch -
ing off motor and
removing fuse key and
battery.
Stay behind the handle when the motor
is running.
WARNING
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Special care
must be taken in slippery conditions and
in difficult, overgrown terrain. Watch for
hidden obstacles such as tree stumps,
roots and ditches to avoid stumbling.
Tall grass can hide obstacles. Be
extremely cautious when working on
slopes or uneven ground. Slopes are a
major factor related to slip and fall
accidents, which in turn can result in
severe injury.
Do not mow extremely steep slopes. To
reduce the risk of injury, do not operate
your machine on slopes with a grade of
more than 25%.
WARNING
Mow parallel to the slope,
never up or down. Take
particular care when
changing direction on
slopes.
Do not pull machine backwards unless
absolutely necessary. Always look down
and behind before and while mowing
backwards.
Working Conditions
Operate your power tool only under
good visibility and daylight conditions
only. Work carefully.
WARNING
If the vegetation being cut or the
surrounding ground is coated with a
chemical substance (such as an active
pesticide or herbicide), read and follow
the instructions and warnings that
accompanied the substance at issue.
WARNING
Inhalation of certain dusts, especially
organic dusts such as mold or pollen,
can cause susceptible persons to have
an allergic or asthmatic reaction.
Substantial or repeated inhalation of
dust and other airborne contaminants, in
particular those with a smaller particle
size, may cause respiratory or other
illnesses. Control dust at the source
where possible. Use good work
practices, such as operating the unit so
that the wind or operating process
directs any dust raised by the power tool
away from the operator. Follow the
recommendations of EPA / OSHA /
NIOSH and occupational and trade
