ROLL-OVER PROTECTION SYSTEM2.5
WARNING
Keep the roll bar in the raised and locked position
and the seat belt securely fastened during
operation. Failure to do so could cause serious
injury or loss of life.
This mower has been designed for good traction and
stability under normal mowing conditions. However, caution
must be used when traveling on slopes, especially when the
grass is wet. Do not mow on wet grass. Wet grass reduces
traction and steering control.
Any or all parts of the Roll-Over Protection System MUST
NOT be removed. Failure to adhere to this guideline could
result in injury or death.
WARNING
There is no roll-over protection when the roll bar
is in the down position.
Lower the roll bar only when absolutely
necessary.
Raise the roll bar as soon as clearance permits.
DO NOT wear the seat belt when the roll bar is in
the down position.
ALWAYS wear seat belt when roll bar is in the up
position.
Operate the machine smoothly, no sudden turns,
starts or stops.
Check the area carefully before mowing for proper
overhead clearance (i.e. branches, doorways,
etc.).
DO NOT contact any overhead object with the
roll bar.
