IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This symbol is used to call attention to safety precautions that should be followed by
the operator to avoid accidents. When you
see this symbol, carefully read the message
that follows and heed its advice. Failure to
comply with safety precautions could result
in serious bodily injury.
In addition to the design and configuration of equipment, hazard control and accident prevention are
dependent upon the awareness, concern, prudence and proper training of personnel in the operation,
transport, maintenance and storage of equipment. Lack of attention to safety can result in accident, personal injury, reduction of efficiency and worst of all—loss of life. Watch for safety hazards and correct deficiencies promptly. Use the following safety precautions as a general guide to safe operations when using this
machine. Additional safety precautions are used throughout this manual for specific operating and maintenance procedures. Read this manual and review the safety precautions often until you know the limitations.
ACCIDENT PATTERNS TO AVOID
1. CONTACT WITH THE ROTATING BLADE - This accident usually happens when the operator is
clearing the discharge chute of grass, (especially when the grass is wet), or when the operator adjusts
the machine without turning it off and waiting for the blades to completely stop.
2. PROPELLED OBJECTS - Sticks, rocks, wires, and other objects can be propelled out through the discharge chute or from under the mower housing. Bystanders are particularly vulnerable.
3. GRASS DISCHARGE CHUTE - The mower shall not be operated without the grass discharge chute
in its lowered position.
4. OVERTURNING - This happens when riding mowers are used on steep slopes, embankments or hills.
The operator in these cases can come in contact with blades or sustain injuries during a fall.
5.
MOWER RUNNING OVER THE VICTIM - This usually happens when a riding mower is driven in reverse.
The accident victims are most often young children whom, unseen by the operator of the mower, were
in the area being mowed.
WE SHARE YOUR DESIRE TO PROTECT YOURSELF, YOUR FAMILY, YOUR FRIENDS AND YOUR
NEIGHBORS FROM ACCIDENTAL INJURY. OBSERVING AND ENFORCING THE FOLLOWING GUIDE
LINES WILL HELP TO INSURE THE SAFETY OF EVERYONE.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. PEOPLE WHO OPERATE, SERVICE, OR ARE OTHERWISE ASSOCIATED with the Zero Turning
Riding Mower should be trained in its proper use and warned of its dangers. Before operating, adjusting,
or servicing the Zero Turning Riding Mower they should read and understand this entire manual and the
engine manual.
2. AVOID CONTACT WITH MOVING PARTS. Keep hands and feet from under mowing deck and away
from blades at all times. Turn engine (motor) off if you must unclog the chute.
3. AVOID HILLS AND SLOPES. Use EXTREME caution when mowing and/or turning on slopes as loss of traction
and/or tip-over could occur. Drive slower on slopes. DO NOT mow slopes greater than 15 degrees. Watch for
ditches, holes, rocks, dips and rises, which change the operating angle. Keep away from drop-offs and steep
banks. Avoid sudden starts when mowing uphill - mower may tip backwards. Loss of traction may occur going
downhill - weight transfer to the front wheels may cause drive wheels to slip and cause loss of braking. DO NOT
mow slopes when grass is wet - slippery conditions affect steering and reduce traction and braking. The operator
is responsible for safe operation on slopes.
4. DISENGAGE POWER TO MOWER BEFORE BACKING UP. Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely
necessary and then only after turning around and observing the entire area behind the mower. Go slowly.
Most “running over victim” accidents occur in reverse.
5. BEGINNING OPERATORS SHOULD LEARN HOW TO STEER the Zero Turning Riding Mower before
attempting to mow. Start with slow engine speed and drive without the blades engaged in open area until
comfortable with the machine.
5
SAFETY CONTINUED
6. KNOW HOW TO STOP QUICKLY. Know the location and operation of every control, especially how to brake and
how to disengage the mower blades.
7. DO NOT MOVE THE CONTROL LEVERS from forward position to reverse position rapidly. The speed
and/or direction of travel is affected instantly by movement of the Control Levers.
8. DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO OPERATE MOWER. Do not allow others who have not had instructions to operate mower. Do not operate the mower when children or others are in the area.
9. ALWAYS TURN ENGINE OFF AND REMOVE KEY before leaving mower to prevent children and
inexperienced operators from starting the engine. Never leave the mower unattended with engine running. Always wait for all moving parts and all sounds to stop before leaving operator’s seat. Always set
the parking brake on an unattended mower.
10. WEAR STURDY, ROUGH-SOLED WORK SHOES AND CLOSE-FITTING TROUSERS AND SHIRTS.
Never operate mower in bare feet, sandals or sneakers.
11. WEAR PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT such as, but not limitied to, protection for eyes, ears, feet, hands
and head when operating or repairing equipment. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that may catch on equipment moving parts.
12. NEVER CARRY PASSENGERS.
13. KNOW THE AREA YOU ARE TO MOW. Watch for hidden dangers such as rocks, roots, sticks, holes,
bumps, and drop-offs, etc. Before mowing, pick up all debris in area to be mowed. Sharp and hard
objects can be propelled at a high speed and can act like shrapnel. Walk through tall grass BEFORE
MOWING to make sure there are no hidden dangers. Mow higher than desired in tall grass to expose
any hidden objects and/or obstacles, clean the area, and then mow to the desired height.
14. BE SURE THE AREA IS CLEAR of other people before mowing. Stop machine if anyone enters the area.
15. NEVER REFUEL A MOWER INDOORS. Allow the engine time to cool before refueling. Unseen vapors may be
ignited by a spark. Always clean up spilled gasoline. Never run the engine indoors in a garage
or any other closed building. Allow engine to cool before storing in any enclosure. The engine exhaust
and gasoline fumes are dangerous.
16. NEVER REMOVE THE FUEL CAP or add gasoline to a running or hot engine or an
engine that has not been allowed to cool for several minutes after running. Always make sure the gas
cap is in place.
17. DO NOT SMOKE AROUND THE MOWER or the gasoline storage container. Gasoline fumes can easily ignite.
18. KEEP GASOLINE IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA away from your living quarters and in tightly
capped safety cans. Never store mower with gasoline in the tank inside a building where fumes may
reach open flame or spark.
19. DISENGAGE BLADES, STOP ENGINE, ENGAGE PARKING BRAKE AND REMOVE IGNITION KEY before any
servicing. Be sure all moving parts and all sounds have stopped. Let engine cool and disconnect the spark plugs
so the engine cannot start by accident.
20. KEEP ALL NUTS, BOLTS, AND SCREWS TIGHT to be sure equipment is in safe working condition, especially blade bolts.
21. VEHICLE SHOULD BE STOPPED AND INSPECTED FOR DAMAGE after striking a foreign object and
the damage should be repaired before restarting and operating the equipment. Stop immediately and
check for damage or loose parts if mower should start vibrating.
22. DISENGAGE BLADES BEFORE DRIVING ACROSS WALKS or projecting objects or transporting.
23. KEEP SAFETY DEVICES AND GUARDS IN PLACE. If any of the safety switches become inoperable,
have them repaired immediately.
24. DO NOT STEP OR STAND ON THE MOWER HOUSING. Step or stand only on the tread areas on the deck.
25. WATCH OUT FOR TRAFFIC near roadways and when crossing roads.
26. THIS MACHINE IS NOT MEANT FOR HIGHWAY OR STREET USE. It is not a recreational vehicle and it should
not be operated as such.
27. WHEN FEASIBLE, DO NOT USE MOWER WHEN GRASS IS WET OR SLIPPERY.
28. MOW ONLY IN DAYLIGHT OR GOOD ARTIF ICIAL LIGHT.
6
SAFETY CONTINUED
29. ALWAYS DISENGAGE THE MOWER BLADE CLUTCH when transporting.
30. Do not operate the mower under influence of drugs or alcohol.
31. Do not change the engine governor settings or overspeed the engine. Operating an engine at excessive speed may
increase the hazard of personal injury.
TOWING
1. Use for towing only if equipped with a Bush Hog hitch kit. Do not attach towed equipment except at the hitch point.
2. Never allow children or others in or on towed equipment.
3. On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may cause loss of traction and loss of control.
4. Travel slowly and allow extra distance to stop.
SLOPE OPERATION
DANGER
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Mowing on wet grass or steep slopes can cause
sliding and loss of control.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Wheels dropping over edges, ditches, steep banks,
or water can cause injury, or death by drowning.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Do not mow slopes when grass is wet.
Do not mow near drop-offs or near water.
Do not mow slopes greater than 15 degrees.
Reduce speed and use extreme caution on slopes.
Avoid sudden turns or rapid speed changes.
Do not ride or operate the ZTR if the mower head
has been removed.
1. Use EXTREME caution when mowing and/or turning on slopes as loss of traction and/or tip-over could occur. The
operator is responsible for safe operation.
2. See inside of the back cover to determine the approximate slope angle of the area to be mowed.
3. Use a walk behind mower and/or a hand trimmer near drop-offs, ditches, steep banks or water. This area can be dangerous.
4. Progressively greater care is needed as the slope increases.
5. Always avoid sudden starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly down the
slope.
6. Avoid sudden starts when mowing uphill. Mower may tip backwards.
7. Be aware that loss of traction may occur going downhill. Weight transfer to the front wheels may cause drive wheels to slip and
cause loss of braking and steering.
8. Watch for ditches, holes, rocks, dips, and rises that change the operating angle, as rough terrain could overturn the machine.
Tall grass can hide obstacles.

DESCRIPTION
The Zero Turn riding mower is intended for use on
lawns and other frequently maintained areas where a
smooth, even cut is desired and superior maneuverability is needed. The tractor unit consists of a
Kawasaki or Kohler twin cylinder engine. The engine
has a pressurized oil lubrication system with spin-on type
filter, fused electronic ignition, electric start and an 8 gallon fuel system.
Two hydrostatic transaxles are used for propelling and
steering. The pumps are belt driven by the engine output shaft. One lever for each drive controls both speed
and direction. This independent control of each drive
wheel coupled with continuously variable speed selection gives the Zero Turn mower exceptional maneuverability.
The mower attachment is available in 55” or 61” cutting widths. The mower has three cutting blades, driven
by an electromagnetic clutch through a single v-belt.
