WARNING
￭ Misuse or unauthorized use may result in personal injury
and property damage.
– Use the lawn mower only as described in this
instruction manual.
￭ Minors should never be allowed to use this power tool.
Bystanders, especially children, and animals should not
be allowed in the area where it is in use. Accidents can
occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of
children. Children are often attracted to the machine and
mowing activities. Never assume that children will remain

watchful eye of a responsible adult other than the
operator. Use extra care when approaching blind corners,
shrubs, trees or other objects that may block your view of
a child.
