light.
2. Do not operate the mower in wet grass if
possible.
3. Mow up and down slopes. Use caution
when mowing or turning on slopes. Always
turn to the downhill side. Do not mow ex-

when maneuvering, loading or unloading
especially on pavement or asphalt.

including pumps, motors, wheels, rims
and tires.
