Preparation
• When you operate the mower, wear correct clothing, slip resistant work shoes or boots, work gloves, hard hat, safety
glasses and hearing protection. Long hair, loose clothing or jewelry can be caught in moving parts.

not disconnect or prevent the operation of any switch.
• Never operate equipment that is not in correct order or without decals, guards, shields, deflectors or other protective
devices fastened.
• Inspect the mower before you operate the mower. Check the tire pressure, engine oil level, the radiator coolant level
and the air cleaner indicator. Fuel is flammable. Use caution when you add the fuel to the mower.

obstructions above the ground (low tree limbs, electrical wires) and also underground obstacles (sprinklers, pipes,
tree roots). Enter a new area carefully. Look for possible hazards.
• Inspect the cutting system before you start the mower. Make sure the blades are free to rotate. When you rotate one
blade, other blades can rotate.
