SERVICE (continued):

•Never run a mower inside a closed area. The exhaust fumes

are toxic.

•Keep nuts and bolts tight, especially blade attachment

bolts, and keep equipment in good condition.

•Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper

operation regularly.

•Keep mower free of grass, leaves, or other debris buildup.

Clean up oil or fuel spillage. Allow mower to cool before
storing.

•Stop and inspect the equipment if you strike an object.

Repair, if necessary, before restarting.

•Never make adjustments or repairs with the engine run-

ning unless otherwise specified.

•Grass catcher components are subject to wear, damage

and deterioration, which could expose moving parts or allow
objects to be thrown. Frequently check components and
replace with original equipment parts, when necessary.

•Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the blade(s) or

wear gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them.

•Batteries contain sulfuric acid. To prevent burns avoid

contact with skin, eyes and clothing. To prevent a fire or
explosion keep sparks and open flames away from battery.

•Before disconnecting the negative (-) ground cable, make

sure all switches are OFF.
