SAFETY INFORMATION
• Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments, because you could lose your footing or
balance.
• Do not mow a slope that has an angle of greater than 15°, as determined using the slope gauge.
• Do not mow wet or damp grass. Unstable footing can cause slipping.
CHILDREN
• Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not aware of the presence of children. Keep
children out of the mowing area and under the watchful care of a responsible adult. Stay alert,
and turn the mower off if a child enters the mowing area. Look behind and down for small
children before and while moving back wards. Use extreme care when approaching blind
corners, doorways, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure your view of a child who
may run into the path of the mower.
• Do not allow children under the age of 14 to operate this mower. Children who are 14 years
of age and older must read and understand the operating instructions and safety rules in this
manual, and must be trained and supervised by a parent.
SERVICE
• When servicing the mower, use only replacement parts that are listed in this manual. The
use of parts that do not meet the original equipment specifications may lead to improper
performance, and may compromise safety.
• Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, verify that the blade and all moving parts have come
to a complete stop. In order to prevent accidental start-ups, disconnect the power cord when
the mower is not in use.
• Follow the instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
• Inspect the lawn mower's power cord and extension cords regularly, and replace them
immediately if they are damaged. In order to obtain replacement parts, call the toll-free
helpline, at 1-888-909-6757.
• Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil and grease.
• In order to reduce the risk of fire, keep the motor free of grass, leaves, and debris build-up.
• Check the blade and the motor mounting bolts for proper tightness frequently. Visually inspect
blade for damage (e.g., bent, cracked, or worn).
• For best and safest performance, maintain the mower with care. Keep the mower blade sharp
and clean. Mower blades are sharp, and can cut. Wrap the blades or wear gloves, and use
extra caution when servicing.
• Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight in order to be sure that the mower is in safe working
condition.
• Do not tamper with safety devices. Check them regularly for proper operation.
• After striking a foreign object, stop the motor and disconnect the power cord. Thoroughly
inspect the mower for any damage. Repair any damage before operating the mower.
• The grass catcher components, discharge cover, and trail shield are subject to wear and
damage, which could expose moving parts or allow objects to be thrown. As a safety
precaution, check the components frequently and immediately replace any parts that show
signs of wear, or that are cracked or broken. Use original equipment manufacturer's (OEM)
parts only, as listed in this manual.
