DO NOT operate this Implement on a Tractor that is not properly maintained. Should a
mechanical or Tractor control failure occur while operating, immediately shut down the Tractor and
perform repairs before resuming operation. Serious injury and possible death could occur from
not maintaining this Implement and Tractor in good operating condition.

Avoid contact with hot surfaces of the engine or muffler. Use gloves and eye protection when
servicing hot components. Contact with a hot surface or fluid can cause serious injury from burns
or scalding.

Do not put hands or feet under mower decks. Blade Contact can result serious

securely blocked up.

Always keep a careful lookout and use extreme care when working around utility and municipal
obstructions. Never allow the Mower to contact any utility, municipal, or other type structure.
Clearly mark all mowing obstructions and consult local utility providers for a safe code of

lower the stand and put the retaining pin securely in place, or put a secure support under the A-
Frame. Lower the implement carefully to the ground. Do not put hands or feet under lifted
