When operating the DR PREMIER 26” ALL-TERRAIN MOWER over uneven terrain or slopes, use extreme caution not to tip the

in serious injury or damage to your machine.
Stopping the Engine
1. Stop the Blade by releasing the Blade Engagement Lever (Figure 16).

3. Move the Throttle Control to the STOP
position.
Obstacle Tips
Slopes
If you have to mow on sloping terrain, mow across the slope, not up and
down, for better control.
To avoid “free-wheeling”, shift into a lower gear before going down a slope.
NEVER shift while on a slope.

The mower engine's power can easily throw stones, sticks, and other debris up to 100 feet at great velocity, which could cause
personal injury or property damage. Do not run the machine over gravel driveways, loose stones or mulch with the mower
blade spinning.
Always check your work area before mowing and remove any debris that might tangle or damage the machine. If you do run
into debris and the mower becomes tangled, turn off the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire before attempting to
untangle the machine.
Never touch the exhaust areas when reaching for the spark plug—they are very hot.
