Push Mower Operation Tips - Stop the blade when crossing gravel
drives, walks or roads. - If the equipment should start to
vibrate abnormally, stop the engine and check immediately for
the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble. - Slope
Operation - Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall
accidents, which can result in severe injury. Operation on
slopes requires extra caution. If the slope is greater than 15
degrees, 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, rocks, hidden objects or bumps which
can cause you to slip and trip. - Always be sure of your
footing. If you feel you are losing your balance, release the
blade control handle immediately and the blade will stop
rotating within 3 seconds. - Do Not: - Mow near drop-offs,
ditches or embankments. - Mow slopes greater than 15 degrees. -
Mow wet grass. Unstable footing could cause slipping. Did you
