Operator Safety
CHILDREN
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of children. Children are often attracted to the unit
and the operating activity. Never assume that children will
remain where you last saw them.
1. Keep children out of the area and under the watchful
care of another responsible adult.
2. Be alert and turn unit off if children enter the area.
3. Never allow children to operate the unit.
4. Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs,
trees, or other objects that may obscure vision.
SERVICE, MAINTENANCE, AND STORAGE

for proper tightness to be sure the equipment is in safe
working condition.
2. Always refer to the operator’s manual for important
details if the tiller is to be stored for an extended period.
4. Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels as
necessary.
5. Keep nuts and bolts tight and keep equipment in good
condition.

deterioration. Frequently check components and
replace with manufacturer’s recommended parts, when
necessary.
