Travel and transport on public roads
Check the relevant road traffic regulations before
driving the machine on a public road. If transporting
the machine on another vehicle always use ap-

If your machine has a hydrostatic transmission you
should only tow it very short distances at low speed
if absolutely necessary, otherwise the transmission
may be damaged.
Intended use
This machine is designed solely for cutting grass
on conventional lawns and other cleared and
leveled ground without obstacles, as rocks, stumps
etc., and, in conjunction with accessories supplied
by the manufacturer even for other special tasks
for which instructions are delivered with the acces-
sory. Use in any other way is considered as con-
trary to the intended use. Compliance with and
strict adherence to the conditions of operation,
service and repair as specified by the manufacturer
also constitute essential elements of the intended
use.
This machine should be operated, serviced and
repaired only by persons who are familiar with its
particular characteristics and who are acquainted
with the relevant safety procedures.
Accident prevention regulations, all other generally
recognised regulations on safety and occupational
medicine, and all road traffic regulations must be
observed at all times.
Any arbitrary modifications carried out to this
machine may relieve the manufacturer of liability
for any resulting damage or injury.
Safe operation practices for Ride-On Mowers
Before starting cutting operations, train different
driving operations on an open ground without
people nearby until you feel familiar with handling
the equipment. This is particularly important if you
have no or little prior experience of driving a vehi-
cle.
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 in order to protect themselves and others
from serious injury.
Never carry children, even with the blades off. They
may fall off and be seriously injured or interfere with
safe machine operation.
