Always wear certified safety glasses or wide-vision safety goggles over spectacles before staring any cutting machine and while operating such a machine. The operation of any cutter produces sound waves that are damaging to the human ear. Ear protection is recommended. CAUTION!Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.
