Important Safety Instructions

Important Safety Instructions

Always inspect all guards, shields and safety 

devices prior to each use  Do not operate machine 

without the entire grass catcher, discharge guard, 

rear guard, or other safety protective devices in 

place and working  

Do not tilt the machine when starting or switching 

on the motor, except if the machine has to be 

tilted for starting in long grass  In this case, do not 

tilt it more than absolutely necessary and tilt only 

the part which is away from the operator 

Always ensure that both hands are in the 

operating position before returning the machine to 

the ground  

Switch on the motor according to the instructions 

with feet well away from rotating parts 

Never leave a running machine unattended 

Stop the motor, wait until the blade comes to a 

complete stop and remove the battery before 

cleaning the machine, removing grass catcher, or 

unclogging the discharge guard 

Operate machine only in daylight or good artificial 

light 

Do not operate machine while under the influence 

of alcohol or drugs 

Do not use battery-operated lawnmower in rain 

Avoid Dangerous Environment –Don’t use 

lawnmowers in damp or wet locations 

Never operate mower in wet grass  Wet grass may 

cause the operator to slip  Always be sure of your 

footing; walk, never run 

If the machine should start to vibrate abnormally, 

stop the motor and check for the cause 

immediately  Vibration is generally a warning of 

trouble 

Use Right Appliance – Do not use lawnmower for 

any job except that for which it is intended 

Don’t Force Lawnmower – It will do the job better 

and safer at the rate for which it was designed 

Don’t Overreach – Keep proper footing and 

balance at all times 

Stay Alert – Watch what you are doing  Use 

common sense  Do not operate lawnmower when 

you are tired 

See manufacturer’s instructions for proper 

operation and installation of accessories  Only 

the accessories and attachments originally 

provided with the lawnmower are approved by the 

manufacturer 

Always store the lawnmower in a cool, dry 

place and out of direct sunlight  Long exposure 

to sunlight and UV rays can degrade plastics 

overtime, potentially causing guards to fail 

Slope Operation

Slopes are a major factor related to slip and 

fall accidents, which can result in severe injury  

Operation on all slopes requires extra caution  If 

you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it 

Mow across the face of slopes; never up and 

down  Exercise extreme caution when changing 

direction on slopes 

Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other 

hidden objects  Uneven terrain could cause a slip 

and fall accident  Tall grass can hide obstacles 

Avoid mowing on wet grass or excessively steep 

slopes (> 15°)  Poor footing could cause a slip and 

fall accident 

Exercise extreme caution when changing direction, 

especially on slopes 

Do not mow near drop offs, ditches, or 

embankments  You could lose your footing or 

balance 

Children

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  Never assume that children will remain 

where you last saw them 

Remove the safety key whenever you leave or 

store the machine   Store in a secure and locked-

up place – out of reach of children 

Keep children out of the mowing area and under 

the watchful care of a responsible adult other 

than the operator 

Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters the 

area
