SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE:
1. To avoid personal injury or property damage use extreme
care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely
flammable and the vapors are explosive. Serious
personal injury can occur when gasoline is spilled on yourself
or your clothes which can ignite. Wash your skin and change
clothes immediately.
a. Use only an approved gasoline container.
b. Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer
bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers on the
ground away from your vehicle before filling.
c. When practical, remove gas-powered equipment from
the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is
not possible, then refuel such equipment on a trailer
with a portable container, rather than from a gasoline
dispenser nozzle.
d. Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or
container opening at all times until fueling is complete.
Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
e. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other sources
of ignition.
f. Never fuel machine indoors.
g. Never remove gas cap or add fuel while the engine is hot
or running. Allow engine to cool at least five (5) minutes
before refueling.
h. Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than 1/2"
(13 mm) below bottom of filler neck to allow space for
fuel expansion.
i. Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.
j. If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine and
equipment. Move machine to another area. Wait five (5)
minutes before starting the engine.
k. To reduce fire hazards, keep machine free of grass, leaves
or other debris build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage and
remove any fuel soaked debris.
l. Never store the machine or fuel container inside where
there is an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a water
heater, space heater, furnace, clothes dryer or other
gas appliances.
m. Allow machine to cool at least five (5) minutes
before storing.
GENERAL SERVICE
1. Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly ventilated area.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless and
deadly gas.
2. Before cleaning, repairing or inspecting, make certain the
blade(s) and all moving parts have stopped. Disconnect the
spark plug wire and ground against the engine to prevent
unintended starting.
SAFE OPERATION PRACTICES
3. Periodically check to make sure the blades come to a
complete stop within approximately five (5) seconds after
operating the blade disengagement control. If the blades
do not stop within this time frame, your machine should be
serviced professionally by an authorized dealer.
4. Check brake operation frequently as it is subjected to wear
during normal operation. Adjust and service as required.
5. Check the blade(s) and engine mounting bolts at frequent
intervals for proper tightness. Also, visually inspect blade(s)
for damage (e.g., excessive wear, bent, cracked). Replace the
blade(s) with the original equipment manufacturer's (O.E.M.)
blade(s) only. Use of parts which do not meet the original
equipment specifications may lead to improper performance
and compromise safety!
6. Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or wear gloves and
use extra caution when servicing them.
7. Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the equipment
is in safe working condition.
8. Never tamper with the safety interlock system or other safety
devices. Check their proper operation regularly.
9. After striking a foreign object, stop the engine, disconnect
the spark plug wire(s) and ground against the engine.
Thoroughly inspect the machine for any damage. Repair the
damage before starting and operating.
10. Never attempt to make adjustments or repairs to the machine
while the engine is running.
11. Grass catcher components and the discharge cover are subject
to wear and damage which could expose moving parts or
allow objects to be thrown. For safety protection, frequently
check components and replace immediately with original
equipment manufacturer's (O.E.M.) parts only. Use of parts
which do not meet the original equipment specifications may
lead to improper performance and compromise safety!
12. Do not change the engine governor settings or over-speed
the engine. The governor controls the maximum safe
operating speed of the engine.
13. Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels,
as necessary.
14. Observe proper disposal laws and regulations for gas, oil, etc.
to protect the environment.
15. According to the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission
(CPSC) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),
this product has an estimated useful life of seven (7) years,
under ordinary use conditions. At the end of its useful life,
have the product inspected annually to ensure all mechanical
and safety systems are operating properly, safely and are
not worn excessively. Failure to do so may result in accident,
injury or death.
