Equipment and be injured or killed. Children can cause the Implement to shift or fall crushing
themselves or others. (SG-25)

DANGER!
NEVER use drugs or alcohol immediately before or while operating the
Tractor and Implement. Drugs and alcohol will affect an operator’s
alertness and coordination and therefore affect the operator’s ability to
operate the equipment safely. Before operating the Tractor or Imple-
ment, an operator on prescription or over-the-counter medication must
consult a medical professional regarding any side effects of the medi-
cation that would hinder their ability to operate the Equipment safely.
NEVER knowingly allow anyone to operate this equipment when their
alertness or coordination is impaired. Serious injury or death to the
operator or others could result if the operator is under the influence of
drugs or alcohol. (SG-27)
WARNING!
Mow only in conditions where you have clear visibility in daylight or with adequate artificial lighting.
Never mow in darkness or foggy conditions where you cannot clearly see at least 100 yards in front
and to the sides of the tractor and mower. Make sure that you can clearly see and identify passersby,
steep slopes, ditches, drop-offs, overhead obstructions, power lines, debris and foreign objects. If
you are unable to clearly see this type of items discontinue mowing. (SGM-1)
