DANGER: This machine was built to be operated according to the rules for safe operation in this

Operation
1.
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not
alert to the presence of children. Children are often
attracted to the machine and the mowing activity.
They do not understand the dangers. Never assume
that children will remain where you last saw them.
a. Keep children out of the mowing area and in
watchful care of a responsible adult other than
the operator.
Safe Handling of Gasoline:
1.
To avoid personal injury or property damage use
extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is
extremely flammable and the vapors are explo-
sive. Serious personal injury can occur when gasoline
is spilled on yourself or your clothes which can ignite.
Wash your skin and change clothes immediately.
a. Use only an approved gasoline container.
b. Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a
truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always
place containers on the ground away from
your vehicle before filling.
b. Be alert and turn machine off if a child enters
the area.

down for small children.
