IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and
cause burns.
 Clear the work area before each use. Remove all objects
such as rocks, sticks, tree nuts, metal, wire, bones, toys,
or other objects which can be thrown by the blade. Stay
behind the handle when the motor is running.
 Avoid holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, property stakes, or other
hidden objects. Uneven terrain could cause a slip and fall
accident.
 Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments.
 Mow across the face of slopes, never up and down.
Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on
slopes.
 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.
 Do not mow on wet grass or excessively steep slopes.
Poor footing could cause a slip and fall accident. Walk,
never run.
 Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs,
trees, or other objects that may block your view.
 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 or pulling the mower over your feet.
 Never direct discharged material toward anyone. Avoid
discharging material against a wall or obstruction. Material
may ricochet back toward the operator. Stop the blade
when crossing gravel surfaces.
 Objects struck by the lawn mower blade can cause severe
injuries to persons. The lawn should always be carefully
examined and cleared of all objects prior to each mowing.
 If the lawn mower strikes a foreign object, follow these
steps:
• Stop the lawn mower by releasing the blade control
lever, wait until the blade comes to a complete stop,
and then remove start key and battery.
• Thoroughly inspect the mower for any damage.
• Replace the blade if it is damaged in any way. Repair
any damage before restarting and continuing to operate
the mower.
 Stop the motor, wait until the blade comes to a complete
stop, and remove start key and battery before unclogging
the chute. The cutting blade continues to rotate for a few
seconds after the motor is shut off. Never place any part
of the body in the blade area until you are sure the blade
has stopped rotating.
 If the mower should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the
motor and check immediately for the cause. Replace
the blade if it is unevenly worn or damaged in any way.
Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.
