Thrown Objects
This unit has a spinning mower blade. This blade can pick up and
throw debris that could seriously injure a bystander. Be sure to clean
up the area to be mowed BEFORE you start mowing.
Do not operate this unit without the entire grass catcher or discharge
guard (deflector) in place.
Also, do not allow anyone in the area while the unit is running! If
someone does enter the area, shut the unit off immediately until they

Fuel and Maintenance
Gasoline is extremely flammable. Its vapors are also extremely flam-
mable and can travel to distant ignition sources. Gasoline must only
be used as a fuel, not as a solvent or cleaner. It should never be
stored any place where its vapors can build up or travel to an ignition
source like a pilot light. Fuel belongs in an approved, plastic, sealed
gas can, or in the tractor fuel tank with the cap securely closed.
Spilled fuel needs to be cleaned up immediately.
Proper maintenance is critical to the safety and performance of your
unit. Be sure to perform the maintenance procedures listed in this
manual, especially periodically testing the safety system.
