1. When servicing the mower, use only replacement parts that are available from the manufacturer.
In order to obtain replacement parts, call the toll-free helpline. The use of parts that do not meet the
original equipment specifications may lead to improper performance, and may compromise safety.
2. Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, verify that the blade and all moving parts have come to a
complete stop, and remove the safety key. In order to prevent accidental start-ups, remove the safety
key when the mower is not in use. Remove the battery when making any adjustments or when any of
the four wheels must be lifted off the ground.
3. Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil and grease.
4. In order to reduce the risk of fire, keep the motor free of grass, leaves, and debris build-up.
5. Frequently check the blade and motor mounting bolts for proper tightness. Visually inspect blade
for damage (e.g.: bent, cracked, or worn).
6. For best and safest performance, maintain the mower with care. Keep the mower blade sharp and
clean. Mower blades are sharp, and can cut. Wrap the blades or wear gloves, and use extra caution
when servicing.
7. Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight in order to be sure that the equipment is in safe working
condition.
8. Never tamper with safety devices. Check them regularly for proper operation.
9. After striking a foreign object, stop the motor and remove the safety key. Thoroughly inspect the
mower for any damage. Repair any damage before operating the mower.
10. Lawn mower components are subject to wear and damage, which could expose moving parts or
allow objects to be thrown. As a safety precaution, frequently check components and replace those
that show signs of wear or damage.
11. When it is not in use, store the mower indoors in a dry area, with the safety key removed, and out
of the reach of children.
