1. OPERATOR REQUIREMENTS
Safe operation of the rotary mower is the responsibility of a qualified operator. A qualified operator has read and
understands both the mower and tractor Operator Manuals and is experienced in tractor and mower operations
and all associated safety practices. In addition to the safety messages contained in this manual, safety message
decals are affixed to the mower and tractor. If any part of the operation and safe use of the mower and tractor is
not completely understood, consult an authorized dealer for a full explanation.
Safe mower operation requires that the operator wear approved Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for the
job conditions while connecting, operating, servicing and repairing the mower and tractor. PPE is designed to
provide operator protection from bodily injury and includes the following:
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Protective eye glasses, goggles, or face shield
Hard hat
Steel toed safety footwear
Gloves
Hearing protection
Close fitting clothing
Respirator or filter mask
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 Implement, an operator on prescription
or over-the-counter medication must consult a medical
professional regarding any side effects of the medication 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)
DANGER!
Note: The mower must be equipped with either single or double chain guards at all times. Schulte recommends
mowers be equipped with double chain guards for all mowing purposes. Single chain guards may be used for
agriculture purposes only and are specifically not recommended for highway, right-of-way, parks or greenbelt
mowing.
DANGER!
The Mower is designed for certain mowing applications and is rated to cut up to a specific size
vegetation (see Mower Standard Equipment and Specifications). DO NOT use this Mower
to cut vegetation above the Mower’s rated capacity or to cut any type of non-vegetative
material. Only operate this Mower on a properly sized and equipped Tractor. Operating this
Mower in an application for which it is not designed and/or operating the Mower with the wrong
size Tractor can cause Mower component damage and equipment failure resulting in possible
serious injury or death. (SGM-14)
