SAFETY
WARNING!
When using the machine, approved personal protective equipment (shown in
illustrations) shall be used. Personal protective equipment cannot eliminate the
risk of injury but it will reduce the degree of injury if an accident does happen.
Ask your retailer for help in choosing the right equipment.
Personal Safety Equipment
•
Make sure that you have rst aid equipment
close at hand when using the machine.
• Never use the machine when barefoot.
• Always wear protective shoes or boots,
preferably with steel toe caps.
• Always wear approved protective glasses or
a full visor when assembling or driving.
• Always wear gloves when handling the
blades.
• Never wear loose clothing that can get
caught in moving parts.
• Use ear protectors to avoid damage to
hearing.
Slope Operation
Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control and
tip-over accidents, which can result in severe injury or
death. Operation on all slopes requires extra caution. If
you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy on
it, do not mow it.
• Mow up and down slopes (10 degrees
maximum), not across.
• Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or
other hidden objects. Uneven terrain could
overturn the machine. Tall grass can hide
obstacles.
• Choose a low ground speed so that you will
not have to stop while on the slope.
• Do not mow on wet grass. Tires may lose
traction.
• Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a
slope. If tires lose traction, disengage blades
and proceed slowly straight down the slope.
• Keep all movement on the slopes slow and
gradual. Do not make sudden changes in
speed or direction, which could cause the
machine to roll over.
