Safe
Operation
Practices
10.
11.
Never attempt to make adjustments or repairs to the
machine while the engine is running.
Service
1.
Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly ventilated
area. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an
odorless, and deadly gas.
Grass catcher components and the discharge
cover are subject to wear and damage which could
expose moving parts or allow objects to be thrown.
For safety protection, frequently check components
and replace immediately with original equipment
manufacturer’s (O.E.M.) parts only, listed in this
manual. “Use of parts which do not meet the original
equipment specifications may lead to improper
performance and compromise safety!”
2.
Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make certain
the blade(s) and all moving parts have stopped.
Disconnect the spark plug wire and ground against the
engine to prevent unintended starting.
3.
Periodically check to make sure the blades come to
complete stop within approximately (5) five seconds
after operating the blade disengagement control. If the
blades do not stop within the this time frame, your unit
should be serviced professionally by an authorized
Service Dealer.
12.
Do not change the engine governor settings or
over-speed the engine. The governor controls the
maximum safe operating speed of the engine.
Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as
necessary.

Check brake operation frequently as it is subjected to
wear during normal operation. Adjust and service as
required.
Observe proper disposal laws and regulations for
gas, oil, etc. to protect the environment.
Check the blade(s) and engine mounting bolts at
frequent intervals for proper tightness. Also, visually
inspect blade(s) for damage (e.g., excessive wear,
bent, cracked). Replace the blade(s) with the original
equipment manufacturer’s (O.E.M.) blade(s) only,
listed in this manual. “Use of parts which do not meet
the original equipment specifications may lead to
improper performance and compromise safety!”
