During Operation

During Operation Safety

General Safety

•
Wear appropriate clothing, including eye
protection; long pants; substantial, slip-resistant
footwear; and hearing protection. Tie back long
hair, secure loose clothing, and do not wear loose
jewelry.
•
Do not operate the machine while ill, tired, or
under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
•
The blade is sharp; contacting the blade can result
in serious personal injury. Shut off the engine,
remove the ignition key (electric-start model only),
and wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving
the operating position.
•
When you release the blade-control bar, the
engine should shut off and the blade should stop
within 3 seconds. If not, stop using your machine
immediately and contact an Authorized Service
Dealer.
•
Keep bystanders, especially small children, out of
the operating area. Stop the machine if anyone
enters the area.
•
Always look down and behind you before moving
the machine in reverse.
•
Operate the machine only in good visibility and
appropriate weather conditions. Do not operate
the machine when there is the risk of lighting.
•
Wet grass or leaves can cause serious injury if
you slip and contact the blade. Avoid mowing in
wet conditions.
•
Use extreme care when approaching blind
corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may
block your view.
•
Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other
hidden objects. Uneven terrain could cause the
machine to overturn or cause you to lose your
balance or footing.
•
If the machine strikes an object or starts to vibrate,
immediately shut off the engine, remove the key
(if equipped), wait for all moving parts to stop, and
disconnect the wire from the spark plug before
examining the machine for damage. Make all
necessary repairs before resuming operation.
•
Before leaving the operating position, shut off
the engine, remove the ignition key (electric-start
model only), and wait for all moving parts to stop.
•
If the engine has been running the muffler will be
hot and can severely burn you. Keep away from
the hot muffler.
•
Check the grass catcher components and
the discharge chute frequently for any wear
or deterioration and replace them with the
manufacturer's recommended parts when
necessary.
•
Use accessories and attachments approved by
The Toro® Company only.
Slope Safety
•
Mow across the face of slopes; never up and
down. Use extreme caution when changing
direction on slopes.
•
Do not mow on excessively steep slopes. Poor
footing could cause a slip-and-fall accident.
•
Mow with caution near drop-offs, ditches, or
embankments.
