Do Not operate this equipment in areas where insects such as bees may attack you and/or cause
you to lose control of the equipment. If you must enter in such areas, use a tractor with an
enclosed Cab and close the windows to prevent insects from entering. If a tractor cab is not
available, wear suitable clothing including head, face, and hand protection to shield you from the
insects. Attacking insects can cause you to lose control of the tractor, which can result in serious
injury or death to you or bystanders. Never dismount a movingtractor.

passersby, steep slopes, ditches, drop-offs, overhead obstructions, power lines, debris and
foreign objects. If you are unable to clearly see these type of items discontinue mowing.

There are obvious and hidden potential hazards in the operation of this Mower.
REMEMBER! This machine is often operated in heavy brush and in heavy
weeds. The Blades of this Mower can throw objects if shields are not properly
installed and maintained. Serious injury or even death may occur unless care
is taken to insure the safety of the operator, bystanders, or passersby in the
area. Do not operate this machine with anyone in the immediate area. Stop
mowing if anyone is within 100 yards of mower.
(SGM-2)
The rotating parts of this machine have been designed and tested for rugged use. However, the
blades could fail upon impact with heavy, solid objects such as metal guard rails and concrete
structures. Such impact could cause the broken objects to be thrown outward at very high
velocities. To reduce the possibility of property damage, serious injury, or even death, never allow
the cutting blades to contact such obstacles.

Foreign objects should be removed from the site to prevent machine damage
and/or bodily injury or even death. Any objects that cannot be removed must
be clearly marked and carefully avoided by the operator. Stop mowing
immediately if blades strike a foreign object. Repair all damage and make
certain rotor or blade carrier is balanced before resuming mowing.
