W ARNING 10 Keep all movement on the slopes slow and gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction. Use extreme caution when operating the mower with attachment s to prevent tip-over or roll-over . If front wheels lift off the ground, pull levers back to stabilize the mower .
W ARNING 11 SLOPE OPERA TION (continued): DO NOT Do not turn on slopes unless necessary , and then, turn slowly and gradually downhill, if possible. Rapid uphill turns may cause tip-over . Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embank- ments. The mower could suddenly turn over if a wheel is over the edge of a cliff or ditch or if an edge caves in.
W ARNING 12 FIRE HAZARDS: Use extra care when handling gasoline and other fuels. They are flammable and vapors are explosive. Store all fuel in approved containers specifically designed for that purpose. Allow engine to cool before refueling. Never remove fuel cap or add fuel with engine running.
W ARNING 13 FIRE HAZARDS (continued): T o prevent fire or explosion, keep sparks and open flames away from battery . Keep electrical connections clean and tight. Inspect them often. Loose connections and corrosion increase fire risk. Before disconnecting the negative ground cable, make sure all switches are off.
W ARNING 14 CHILDREN: Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are attracted to lawn mowers and the mowing activity . NEVER assume children will stay where they were last seen. Be alert to avoid accidents.
