By Mary Richards During the ice and snow of the long, hard winter we ex­ perienced in Illinois, it seemed to some of us that the ground would never be green again. But, green it is - and the grass is growing -- and growing - and growing! -- . With the growing of the grass csrr.es the cutting of th«» crass -- and with the cutting of the grass comes the injuries caused by power mowers and powered hedge trimmers Last year, some 72,000 Americans were injured seriously enough by mowers and trimmers to require emergency room treatment. What caused these injuries? Serious lawn mower accidcnts were caused by: objects picked Up and thrown by mowers; riding type mowers tipping over when used on steep slopes; garden tractors or riding mowers U3ed in reverse and running over or into innocent victims; and contact with the mower blade when clearing grass from the discharge chute or adjusting the machine before the blades have fully stopped Victims of hedge-trimmer accidents were most often hurt while changing hand position with the trimmer still running, operating the trimmer with only one hand, or trying to hold the c^cdaway from the blade The IlThois Department of Public health has some lawn miswer and hedge trimmer safety tips that may help you avoid mower or trimmer ac­ cidents this summer , Lawn Mowers When buying a power mower, make sure it has a rear guard to protect your hands and feet from blades, and a downward- aimed discharge chute so debris is less likely to hit anyone nearby Before mowing, rake up wires, cans, rocks, twigs or other litter that is cluttering the lawn Don't ever cut a wet lawn -- since grass often clogs the discharge chute, tempting you to clear it while the machine is running. Always turn the mower off and disconnect the spark plug wire or electric plug before unclogging or adjusting the machine Never refuel a mower while it is running or the engine is hot Mow across slopes if^using a walk-behind mower - dfive a riding mower upf and down slopes Don't smoke near a power mower or near gasoline Keep children and others out » of the area being mowed Hedge Trimmer* Buy a trimmer with cutting teeth and guards close enough together that your finger cannot fit between them Be sure the trimmer has two handles, including a wide forward handle high above the cutting blade Make sure the trimmer is light enough for you to handle easily Do not stand^ on a chair or ladder while cutting bushes Use a three-wire extension cord with three-pronged plugs Ndver clean or adjust the trimmer while it is plugged in Keep children and others out of your working area Don t rush your work Hurrying increases your chances of injury \ If you want more information about mower and trimmer safety, write to Illinois Department of Public health.
