Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses
with side shields when operating mower.
Moving parts can cut or amputate fingers or a
hand. Wrap blade(s) or wear gloves to
service. On multiblade mowers, rotation of
one blade will cause all blades to rotate.
NEVER place your hands or any part of your
body or clothing inside or near any moving
part while unit is running.
ALWAYS keep hands and feet away from all
rotating parts during operation. Rotating parts
can cut off body parts.
ALWAYS keep body and hands away from
pin holes or nozzles which eject hydraulic
fluid under pressure.
DO NOT touch parts which are hot. Allow
parts to cool.
ALWAYS keep hands and feet away from all
pinch points.
Read, understand, and follow all instructions
in the manual and on the machine before
starting.
Understand:
How to operate all controls
The functions of all controls
How to STOP in an Emergency
Braking and steering characteristics
Turning radius and clearances
Keep safety devices or guards in place and
functioning properly. NEVER modify or
remove safety devices.
Do not operate without either entire grass
catcher or the discharge guard in place.
Stop engine before removing grass catcher or
unclogging chute.
Ensure Safety Interlock System is functioning
properly. DO NOT operate unit if safety
interlock is damaged or disabled.
Use care when approaching blind corners,
shrubs, trees or other objects that may
obscure vision.
Dust, smoke, fog, etc. can reduce vision and
cause an accident. Mow only in daylight or
good artificial light.
Avoid slippery surfaces. Always be sure of
your footing.
DO NOT mow on wet grass. Reduced
traction could cause sliding and effect the
machine’s stability.
Watch for traffic when operating near or
crossing roadways.
Never carry passengers.
DO NOT try to stabilize the machine by
putting your foot on the ground.
Never direct discharge towards persons or
property that may be injured or damaged by
thrown objects. Use extreme caution on
gravel surfaces.
Always stand clear of the discharge area.
ALWAYS disengage PTO, stop unit and
engine, remove key, engage parking brake
and allow moving parts to stop before leaving
operator’s position.
Never engage PTO while raising attachment
or when attachment is in raised position.
DO NOT operate at too fast a rate. DO NOT
change engine governor settings or over-
speed engine. Slow down before turning.
DO NOT operate in reverse unless absolutely
necessary. ALWAYS look down and behind
before and while backing.
Stop and inspect equipment if you strike an
object or if there is an unusual vibration.
Repair, if necessary, before restarting. Never
make adjustments or repairs with the engine
running.
Mower blades are sharp and can cut you.
Wrap the blade(s) or wear gloves, and use
extra caution when servicing them. NEVER
weld or straighten mower blades.
Rotation of one blade may cause rotation of
the other blades.
Take all possible precautions when leaving
unit unattended. Shut off engine. Remove
wire from spark plug and secure it away from
spark plug.
ALWAYS remove key to prevent unauthorized
use.
Know the weight of loads. Limit loads to those
you can safely control and the unit can safely
handle.
Disengage PTO when attachment is not in
use. ALWAYS turn off power to attachment
when travelling, crossing driveways, etc.
Mow up and down slopes, not across them.
Keep all movements on the slope slow and
gradual. Do not make sudden changes in
speed or direction.
Avoid starting or stopping on the slope. If tires
lose traction, disengage the blades and
proceed slowly straight down the slope.
If you cannot back up a slope or you feel
uneasy on it, do not mow it.
DO NOT park on slopes unless necessary.
When parking on slope always chock or block
wheels. Always set parking brake.
