A thread in this forum discusses safety features. Here I'd like to ask about safety procedures that we can take to protect our kids, whether the ride-on mower is running or parked.
When I was a kid, the operator stopped the mower in the middle of the field and left it for around five minutes to do something urgent. He killed the engine. That was a good safety procedure. Curious kids went around the machine, inspecting every inch of it. Just imagine what would have happened if he left the engine running.
What in your experience are the top five safety procedures for ride-on mowers?
