SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE MOWING:
1. Discuss proper maintenance with your Dixon dealer, to save
money and prevent injury. Consult your dealer before
removing any parts.
2. Don't allow anyone to operate your Dixon mower without
proper instruction. Young children should never be allowed
to operate any power mower, riding or walking.
3. Before mowing, pick up all debris — particularly stones and
sharp objects.
4. Before starting the engine, make sure the gas cap is
in place.
DURING MOWER OPERATION 1. The revolutionary Dixon
mower attracts many admiring
neighbors. But when mowing, all persons — especially
children — and pets should be cleared from the mowing
area.
2. Wear appropriate, safe clothing when mowing — close-fitting
jeans or slacks and heavy leather or safety shoes with rough
soles. Never use any kind of mower with bare feet or open
sandals, not even an old push-type model!
3. When grass is wet or slippery, do not use any riding mower.
4. Always mow at the slowest speed that will cut satisfactorily.
5. Keep hands and feet away from the blade at all times.
6. Although the Dixon mower is equipped with a missile deflector
which directs downwards all blade propelled objects, keep
persons clear of the discharge chute.
7. Your Dixon mower is very stable because of its low center of
gravity and weight biased to the rear; however, caution should
be exercised when mowing hills or slopes with any mower.
8. Always disengage blades before taking the mower
