With safety in mind, remember these easy steps for operating outdoor power equipment.
Operate equipment carefully and follow recommended procedures.
Always turn off the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire before attempting to unclog or work on outdoor power equipment. If leaving unattended, turn off engine and remove key.
Dress properly for the job.
Wear long pants, close-fitting clothes, sturdy shoes, and safety glasses. Don’t wear anything that could get caught in moving parts (loose jewelry or clothing. Be careful of long hair).
