Spring and summer are prime time for that fresh cut grass smell. But in order to get that smell, you need to mow your lawn. Some people find that time to be rewarding, but for others, it’s usually a teenager’s chore. Not only do you have to beat the summer sun and heat, you also have to be careful of the dangers of using a power lawn mower. Unfortunately there are thousands of hand and foot injuries each year, with even children and pets being accidentally involved.
There are several precautions to take when using a power mower, whether you are 12 or 70 years old. Remember to protect all parts of your body, including your feet when using these machines. The following are some safety tips that we recommend you follow:
Sun safety
Protective Gear and Tools
Prepare the area
Proper Usage
