Snapper Z2002K User Manual

6. BEGINNING OPERATORS SHOULD LEARN HOW TO STEER the Snapper Zero Turning Radius
Mower before attempting to mow. Start with slow engine speed and drive without the blades engaged
in open area until comfortable with the machine.
7. KNOW HOW TO STOP QUICKLY. Know the location and operation of every control, especially how
to brake and how to disengage the mower blades.
8. DO NOT MOVE THE JOYSTICK CONTROL LEVER from forward position to reverse position rapidly.
The speed and/or direction of travel is affected instantly by movement of the Joystick.
9. DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO OPERATE MOWER. Do not allow others who have not had
instruction to operate mower.
10. ALWAYS TURN ENGINE OFF AND REMOVE KEY before leaving mower to prevent children and
inexperienced operators from starting the engine. Never leave the mower unattended with engine
running. Always wait for all moving parts and all sounds to stop before leaving operator's seat.
Always set the parking brake on an unattended mower.
11. WEAR STURDY, ROUGH-SOLED WORK SHOES AND CLOSE-FITTING SLACKS and shirts. Never
operate mower in bare feet, sandals or sneakers.
12. NEVER CARRY PASSENGERS.
13. KNOW THE AREA YOU ARE TO MOW. Watch for hidden dangers such as rocks, roots, sticks,
holes, bumps, and drop-offs, etc. Before mowing, pick up all debris in area to be mowed. Sharp and
hard objects can be propelled at a high speed and can act like shrapnel. Walk through tall grass
BEFORE MOWING to make sure there are no hidden dangers. Mow higher than desired in tall grass
to expose any hidden objects and/or obstacles, clean the area, and then mow to the desired height.
14. NEVER REFUEL A MOWER INDOORS. Allow the engine time to cool before refueling. Unseen
vapors may be ignited by a spark. Always clean up spilled gasoline. Never run the engine indoors in
a garage or any other closed building. Allow engine to cool before storing in any enclosure. The
engine exhaust and gasoline fumes are dangerous.
15. NEVER REMOVE THE FUEL CAP or add gasoline to a running or hot engine or an engine that has
not been allowed to cool for several minutes after running. Always make sure the gas cap is in place.
16. DO NOT SMOKE AROUND THE MOWER or the gasoline storage container. Gasoline fumes can
easily ignite.
17. KEEP GASOLINE IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA away from your living quarters and in tightly-
capped safety cans. Never store mower with gasoline in the tank inside a building where fumes may
reach open flame or spark.
18. DISENGAGE BLADE, STOP ENGINE AND REMOVE IGNITION KEY before any servicing. Be sure
all moving parts and all sounds have stopped. Let engine cool and disconnect the spark plugs so the
engine cannot start by accident. A SLIGHT ROTATION OF THE BLADES COULD START THE
ENGINE.
19. KEEP ALL NUTS, BOLTS, AND SCREWS TIGHT to be sure equipment is in safe working condition,
especially blade mounting bolts.
