Do not pick up or carry a machine while the engine
is running.
•
Exercise caution and be sure of your footing,
especially when backing up, to avoid slipping or
falling.
•
Be careful when operating the machine in hard
ground. The tines can catch in the ground and
propel the machine forward. If this occurs, let go

Do not leave a running machine unattended.

Shut off the machine and wait for all moving parts

unclogging, servicing, cleaning, or storing the

an odorless, deadly poison.

Always be sure of your footing; keep a firm hold on

The tines should not rotate when the engine is
idling; if they do rotate, contact your Authorized

If an object becomes lodged in the tines, shut off
the engine, disconnect the wire from the spark
plug, and allow the engine to cool before removing
