SECTION 1: IMPORTANT SAFE OPERATION PRACTICES
This symbol points out important safety instructions which, if not followed, could endanger the personal safety and/or
property of yourself and others. Read and follow all instructions in this manual before attempting to operate this machine.
Failure to comply with these instructions may result in personal injury. When you see this symbol—HEED ITS WARNING.
This mower deck was built to be operated according to the rules for safe operation in this manual. As with any type of power
equipment, carelessness or error on the part of the operator can result in injury. This mower deck is capable of amputating
hands and feet or throwing objects. Failure to observe the following safety instructions could result in serious injury or death.
GENERAL OPERATION
Read, understand and follow all instructions in the manual
and on the machine before starting. Keep this manual in a
safe place for future and regular reference and for ordering
replacement parts
Only allow responsible individuals familiar with the instructions
to operate the machine. Know the controls and how to stop the
machine quickly.
Do not put hands or feet under the cutting deck or near
rotating parts.
Clear the area of objects such as rocks, toys, wire, etc. which
could be picked up and thrown by the blades. A small object
may have been overlooked and could be accidentally thrown
by the mower in any direction and cause injury to you or a
bystander. To help avoid a thrown objects injury, keep children,
animals, bystanders and helpers at least 75 feet from the
mower while it is in operation. Always wear safety glasses
with side shields or safety goggles during operation or while
performing an adjustment or repair, to protect eyes from
foreign objects. Stop the blades when crossing gravel drives,
walks or roads.
Be sure the area is clear of other people before mowing. Stop
machine if anyone enters the area.
Never carry passengers.
Disengage the blades before shifting into reverse and backing
up. Always look down and behind before and while backing.
Be aware of the mower and attachment discharge direction
and do not point it at anyone. Do not operate the mower
without either the entire grass catcher or the chute guard in
place.
Slow down before turning. Operate the machine smoothly.
Avoid erratic operation and excessive speed.
Never leave a running machine unattended. Always turn off
the blades, place the transmission in neutral, set the parking
brake, stop the engine and remove key before leaving the
area.

Turn off blades when not mowing.
Stop the engine and wait until the blades come to a complete
stop before (a) removing the grass catcher or unclogging
chute, or (b) making any repairs, adjusting or removing any
grass or debris.
Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.
Do not operate the machine while under the influence of
alcohol or drugs.
Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing roadways.
Use extra care when loading or unloading the machine onto
a trailer or truck. Be sure truck is wide enough and on a firm,
level surface. Use loading ramps and attach them properly to
the truck bed. Use a heavy-duty trailer to transport the tractor.
Never make a cutting height adjustment while the engine is
running if the operator must dismount to do so.
Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and close-fitting slacks
and shirts. Do not wear loose fitting clothes or jewelry. They
can be caught in moving parts. Never operate a unit in bare
feet, sandals or sneakers.
Check overhead clearance carefully before driving under
power lines, wires, bridges or low hanging tree branches,
before entering or leaving buildings, or in any other situation
where the operator and/or roll bar may be struck, which could
result in serious injury.
Disengage the power take-off, set the parking brake and shift
into neutral before attempting to start the engine.
Your mower is designed to cut normal residential grass. Do not
attempt to mow through unusually tall, dry grass (e.g. pasture)
or piles of dry leaves. Debris may build up on the mower deck,
presenting a potential fire hazard.
Use only accessories approved for the machine by Cub Cadet
Yanmar. Read, understand and follow all instructions provided
with approved accessories.
