SAFETY RULES

Safe Operation Practices for Ride-On Mowers

IMPORTANT: THIS CUTTING MACHINE IS CAPABLE OF AMPUTATING HANDS AND FEET AND THROWING OBJECTS. FAILURE

TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

I. GENERAL OPERATION

• Read, understand, and follow all instructions in the manual
and on the machine before starting.

• Only allow responsible adults, who are familiar with the
instructions, to operate the machine.

• Clear the area of objects such as rocks, toys, wire, etc.,
which could be picked up and thrown by the blade.

• Be sure the area is clear of other people before mowing.
Stop machine if anyone enters the area.

• Never carry passengers.

• Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary. Always
look down and behind before and while backing.

• Be aware of the mower discharge direction and do not point
it at anyone. Do not operate the mower without either the
entire grass catcher or the guard in place.

• Slow down before turning.

• Never leave a running machine unattended. Always turn
off blades, set parking brake, stop engine, and remove keys
before dismounting.

• Turn off blades when not mowing.

• Stop engine before removing grass catcher or unclogging
chute.

• Mow only in daylight or good artifi cial light.

• Do not operate the machine while under the infl uence of
alcohol or drugs.

• Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing
roadways.

• Use extra care when loading or unloading the machine into
a trailer or truck.

• Data indicates that operators, age 60 years and above,
are involved in a large percentage of riding mower-related
injuries. These operators should evaluate their ability to
operate the riding mower safely enough to protect themselves
and others from serious injury.

Keep machine free of grass , leaves or other debris build-up

which can touch hot exhaust / engine parts and burn. Do not
allow the mower deck to plow leaves or other debris which
can cause build-up to occur. Clean any oil or fuel spillage
before operating or storing the machine. Allow machine to

cool before storage.

II. SLOPE OPERATION

Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tipover
accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. All slopes
require extra caution. If you cannot back up the slope or if you

feel uneasy on it, do not mow it.

DO:

• Mow up and down slopes, not across.

• Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.

• Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain could
overturn the machine.

• Use slow speed. Choose a low gear so that you will not
have to stop or shift while on the slope.

• Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for wheel
weights or counterweights to improve stability.

• Use extra care with grass catchers or other attachments.
These can change the stability of the machine.

• Keep all movement on the slopes
make sudden changes in speed or direction.

• Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction,
disengage the blades and proceed slowly

DO NOT:

•

Do not

turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn slowly

and gradually downhill, if possible.

•

Do not

mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. The
mower could suddenly turn over if a wheel is over the edge
of a cliff or ditch, or if an edge caves in.

•

Do not

mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could cause

sliding.

•

Do not

try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot on
the ground.

•

Do not

use grass catcher on steep slopes.

III. CHILDREN

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the pres­ence of children. Children are often attracted to the ma chine
and the mowing activity.

where you last saw them.

• Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful
care of another responsible adult.

• Be alert and turn machine off if children enter the area.

• Before and when backing, look behind and
children.

• Never carry children. They may fall off and be seriously
injured or interfere with safe machine operation.

• Never allow children to operate the machine.

• Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs,
trees, or other objects that may obscure vision.

IV. SERVICE

• Use extra care in handling gasoline and other fuels. They
are fl ammable and vapors are explosive.

- Use only an approved container.

- Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine running.
Allow engine to cool before refueling. Do not smoke.

- Never refuel the machine indoors.

- Never store the machine or fuel container inside where
there is an open fl ame, such as a water heater.

• Never run a machine inside a closed area.

• Keep nuts and bolts, especially blade attachment bolts, tight
and keep equipment in good condition.

• Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper operation
regularly.

• Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris build­up. Clean oil or fuel spillage. Allow machine to cool before
storing.

• Stop and inspect the equipment if you strike an object. Repair,
if necessary, before restarting.

• Never make adjustments or repairs with the engine
running.

• Grass catcher components are subject to wear, damage,
and deterioration, which could expose moving parts or
allow objects to be thrown. Frequently check components
and replace with manufacturer's recommended parts, when
necessary.

• Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the blade(s) or
wear gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them.

• Check brake operation frequently. Adjust and service as
required.

Never

assume that children will remain

SAFETY RULES

Safe Operation Practices for Ride-On Mowers

• Be sure the area is clear of other people before mowing.
Stop machine if anyone enters the area.

• Never carry passengers or children even with the blades
off.

• Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary. Always
look down and behind before and while backing.

• Never carry children. They may fall off and be seriously
injured or interfere with safe machine operation.

• Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful
care of another responsible adult.

• Be alert and turn machine off if children enter the area.

• Before and when backing, look behind and down for small
children.

• Mow up and down slopes (15° Max), not across.

• Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.

• Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain could overtur n
the machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

• Use slow speed. Choose a low gear so that you will not
have to stop or shift while on the slope.

• Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction,
disengage the blades and proceed slowly straight down the
slope.

• If machine stops while going uphill, disengage blades, shift
into reverse and back down slowly.

• Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn
slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.

Look for this symbol to point out
im por tant safety precautions. It means
CAU TION!!! BECOME ALERT!!! YOUR
SAFETY IS INVOLVED.

CAUTION: Do not coast down a hill
in neutral, you may lose control of
the tractor.

CAUTION: Tow only the attachments
that are recommended by and
comply with specifications of
the ma nu fac tu rer of your tractor.
Use common sense when towing.
Operate only at the lowest possible
speed when on a slope. Too heavy
of a load, while on a slope, is
dangerous. Tires can lose traction
with the ground and cause you to
lose control of your tractor.

up, transporting, adjusting or making
repairs, always disconnect spark
plug wire and place wire where it
cannot contact spark plug.

OPERATION

TIPS FOR IMPROVED BAGGING
OPE RA TION:

Follow the mower operation instructions in your tractor
owner's manual.

When operating your grass catcher on a lawn where grass
and leaf bagging equipment has not been used, you are
picking up thatch and debris that has accumulated for long
periods of time. The amount collected and the total time
of operation may be greater than you will experience with
regular use of your grass catcher.

• Always run throttle at full speed when bagging.

• Select a gear low enough to give good mower cutting
performance, good quality cut and good bagging
per for man ce.

NOTE: It may be necessary to overlap width of cut to suit
your conditions.

• If grass is extremely tall, it should be mowed twice. The
fi rst time relatively high, the second time to desired
height.

• Use left hand side of mower for trimming.

• Plastic trash bags can be inserted inside grass catcher
containers for ease of debris disposal. To remove the
plastic trash bags when full:

a. Disengage blades, shift into neutral, en ga ge the

par king brake and stop the engine.
b. Raise seat. Unlatch and raise cover.
c. Remove one container at a time by grasping

con tai ner handles and pulling toward the rear, off

of the tube rails.
d. With the container resting on the ground, close

and secure the top of the plastic lawn bag.
e. Tip the container on its side and slide the fi lled bag

from the container.
f. Install a new plastic lawn bag with the edges of the

bag draped over upper lip of the container.
g. Repeat for other containers.
h. Reinstall containers making sure right con tai ner

overlaps left container at center supports.
j. Close cover and secure latches over center support

tubes.

• Avoid cutting wet grass or in the morning while the dew
is still heavy. Grass clippings collected under these
conditions tend to be sticky and adhere to the walls of
the fl ow path causing clogging.

• Your bagger is equipped with a dump bag indicator. As
the bags become full, the fl ow indicating ball will drop
down in its slot, indicating that the bags are full or the
chutes have become clogged. Care should be taken
not to damage the parts and that the ball moves freely
at the beginning of each use.

NOTE: To help prevent clogging of chutes, check/empty
bags when ball begins to drop down in the slot. Experience
will teach you the best time to empty the bags.

• If the grass catcher fails to pick up cut grass or leaves,
it is an indication that clogging has occurred in the
system or that the grass catcher containers are full.

a. Disengage blades, shift into neutral, en ga ge the

parking brake and stop the engine.

- Raise seat. Unlatch and raise cover.

- Slide out containers and dispose of clippings .

- Replace containers, close cover, and latch.

b. Unlatch chutes and check for clogging

- Remove all debris in chutes.

- Reassemble and latch chutes

c. Check to insure dump bag indicator has not become

clogged.

- The air passage hole must be clear of debris.
Gently insert a small twig or wire into pas sage way
to clear.

CAUTION

• Do not operate mower with grass catch er
par tial ly installed.

• Disengage blades and stop engine be fore
leav ing tractor seat to empty con tain ers,
un clog ging chutes, etc.

• Close cover before starting.

• Disengage mower when crossing drive ways
or gravel surfaces and other areas where
thrown objects could be a hazard.

• Do not attempt to vacuum up cans or other
potentially hazardous pro jec tiles.

CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

Always observe safety rules when performing any main­ te nance.

• Before each use check for loose fasteners.

• Clean unit thoroughly after each use.

BLADE CARE

For best results mower blades must be kept sharp. Re place
bent or damaged blades.

• See BLADE CARE instructions in your tractor owner's
manual.

CAUTION: BEFORE PERFORMING ANY

MAIN TE NANCE, SERVICE OR AD JUST ­MENTS:

• Depress clutch brake pedal fully and

set parking brake.

• Place gearshift/motion control lever in

spark plug(s) and place wire where it
cannot come in contact with plug.

STORAGE

When grass catcher is to be stored for a period of time,
clean it thoroughly, remove all dirt, grass, leaves, etc. Store
in a clean, dry place.

CAUTION: Do not leave grass in bagger
containers. Empty containers after each
use and before storing. Failure to do so
may result in spontaneous com bus tion
which could develop into a fi re.

are subject to wear, damage and
deterioration, which could expose
moving parts or allow objects to be
thrown. Frequently check components
and replace with manufacturer's
recommended parts, when necessary.
