Ten Operating
Tips For
Power Mowers
Mowing the lawn can be espec-
ially bothersome if fingers and toes
go flying out with the clippings;
and it can be annoying to see
this "weapon" of yours firing guid-
ed missiles --- nails, pieces of wire
and sticks --at your wife and child-
ren ... and you.
Power mowers can be danger-
ous, advises safety specialists of the
Ontario Department of Agricult-
ure. Their operation should be re-
garded as one needful of sound
safety practices. If this is not
the case, think it over: A child's
finger is a steep price to pay for
a new world's mowing record.
Here are ten tips to bring the
power mower back to its intended
place in the family circle:
1. Keep hands, feet and loose
clothing away from all moving
parts of the mower.
2. Wear sound shoes. Slippers
may be comfortable, but they of-
fer little resistance to whirling
blades.
3. Never leave the mower run-
ning without an attendant.
4. Know your machine. Be able
to disengage the clutch at the least
notice. Know the cutting path of
the blades with respect to the
mower housing.
5. Never cut down a slope .. .
always sideways.
6. Keep people (especially child-
ren) out of the area to be mowed.
7. By the same token, keep
people out of range of the grass
discharge opening. They can be
easy targets for flying stones and
other hard objects.
8. Disconnect the spark plug
wire before working around the
blade (cleaning, sharpening, in-
specting). Mowers have been
known to re -start on occasion from
the very slightest turn of the
blade.
9. Remember that the blades of
electric mowers take longer to
stop than blades of hand mowers.
Give them a little longer time....
and be safe.
10. Don't be a follower: Run the
mower --don't let it run you.
