GENERAL OPERATION

l Read, understand, and follow all instructions in the

manual and on the unit before starting.

l Only allow responsible adults, who are familiar with

the instructions, to operate the unit.

l Clear the area of objects such as rocks, toys, wire,

etc., which could be picked up and thrown by the blade(s).

l Be sure the area is clear of other people before mow-

ing. Stop

l Never carry passengers. l Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary.

Always look down and behind before and while elling in reverse.

l 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 deflector in place.

l Slow down before turning.

Never leave a running unit unattended. Always

disengage the PTO, set parking brake, stop engine, and remove keys before dismounting.

l Turn off the PTO switch to disengage the blades

when not mowing.

l Stop engine before removing grass catcher or

unclogging chute.

l Mow only in daylight or good artificial light. l Do not operate the unit while under the influence of

alcohol or drugs.

l Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing

roadways.

l Use extra care when loading or unl;ading the unit

into a trailer or truck.

SLOPE OPERATION

Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tip-over 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 drive on it.

-A WARNING

Never operate on slopes greater than 30 percent (16.7”) which is a rise of three feet vertically in 10

feet horizontally.

When operating on slopes that are greater than 15

percent (8.5”) but less than 30 percent use additional

wheel weights or counterweights when available and

applicable (see your dealer to determine which weights -if any-are available and appropriate for

your unit). Select slow ground speed before driving onto slope.

In addition to front and rear weights, use extra caution when operating on slopes with rear-mounted grass catcher.

Mow UP and DOWN the slope, never across the face, use caution when changing directions and

DO NOT START OR STOP ON SLOPE.

l See your authorized dealer for recommendations of

available weights to improve stability.

l Mow up and down slopes, not across. l Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc. l Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain could

overturn the unit. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

l Use slow speed. Choose a low gear so that you will

not have to stop or shift while on the slope.

l Use extra care with grass catchers or other attach-

ments. These can change the stability of the unit.

l Keep all movement on the slopes slow and gradual.

Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction.

Do Not

l Do

notstart or stop on a slope.‘lf tires lose traction,

disengage the blade(s) and proceed slowly straight

down the slope.

l Do

notturn on slopes unless necessary, and then,

turn slowly and gradually uphill, if possible.

l Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embank-

ments. The mower could suddenly turn over if a

wheel is over the edge of a cliff or ditch, or if an edge

caves in.

l Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could

cause sliding.

l Do

nottry to stabilize the unit by putting your foot on

the ground.

l Do not use grass catcher on steep slopes.

Safety Rules & Information

CHILDREN

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the unit and the mowing activity. Never assume that chil-

dren will remain where you last saw them.

l Keep children out of the mowing area and under the

watchful care of another responsible adult.

l Be alert and turn unit off if children enter the area. l Before and during reverse operation, look behind and

down for small children.

l Never carry children. They may fall off and be seri-

ously injured or interfere with safe unit operation.

l Never allow children to operate the unit.

l Use extra care when approaching blind comers, shrubs,

trees, or other objects that may obscure vision.

TRANSPORTING AND STORAGE

l Always observe safe refueling and fuel handling prac-

tices when refueling the unit after transportation or storage.

l Always follow the engine manual instructions for

storage preparations before storing the unit for both short and long term periods.

l Always follow the engine manual instructions for

proper start-up procedures when returning the unit to

service.

l Never store the unit or fuel container inside where

there is an open flame or pilot light, such as in a water heater. Allow unit to cool before storing.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

l Use extra care in handling gasoline and other fuels.

They are flammable and vapors are explosive.

a) Use only an approved container.

b) Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine

running. Allow engine to cool before refueling. Do not smoke.

c) Never refuel the unit indoors.

l Never run a unit in an enclosed area. l Keep nuts and bolts, especially blade attachment

bolts, tight and keep equipment in good condition.

l Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper

operation regularly.

l Keep unit free of grass, leaves, or other debris build-

up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage.

l Stop and inspect the equipment if you strike an

object. Repair, if necessary, before restarting.

l Never make adjustments or repairs with the engine

running unless specified otherwise in the engine manufacturer’s manual.

l Grass catcher components are subject to wear, dam-

age, and deterioration, which could expose moving

parts or allow objects to be thrown. Frequently check

components and replace with manufacturer’s recom-

mended parts, when necessary.

l Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the

blade(s) or wear gloves, and use extra caution when

servicing them.

l Check brake operation frequently. Adjust and service

as required.

l Use only factory authorized replacement parts when

making repairs.

l Always comply with factory specifications on all

settings and adjustments.

l Only authorized service locations should be utilized

for major service and repair requirements.

l Never attempt to make major repairs on this unit

unless you have been properly trained. Improper ser-

vice procedures can result in hazardous operation,

equipment damage and voiding of manufacturer’s

warranty.
