Safety Section 1-9
SAFETY
WARNING!
Do not mow with two machines in the same area except with Cab tractors
with the windows closed.
(SGM-11)
DANGER!
Rotary and Flail Mowers are capable under adverse conditions of
throwing objects for great distances
(100 yards or more) and
causing serious injury or death. Follow safety messages carefully.
STOP MOWING IF PASSERSBY ARE WITHIN 100 YARDS UN-
LESS:
-Front and Rear Deflectors are installed and in good,
working condition;
-Mower Head is running close to and parallel to the ground
without exposed Blades;
-Passersby are outside the existing thrown-object zone;
-All areas have been thoroughly inspected and all foreign
material such as rocks, cans, glass, and general debris
has been removed.
NOTE:
Where there are grass and weeds high enough to hide debris
that could be struck by the blades, the area should be: in-
spected and large debris removed, mowed at an intermediate
height, inspected closely with any remaining debris being re-
moved, and mowed again at desired final height.
(SBM-1)
DANGER!
Use extreme caution when raising the Mower head. Stop the Blades
from turning when the Mower Head is raised and passersby are within
100 yards. Raising the Mower head exposes the Cutting Blades
which creates a potentially serious hazard and can cause serious
injury by objects thrown from the Blades or by contact with the Blades.
(SBM-2)
DANGER!
Be particularly careful in transport. The Mower has raised the center
of gravity for the tractor and has increased the possibility of overturn. Turn
curves or go up slopes only at low speed and using a gradual turning
angle. Slow down on rough or uneven surfaces. (SBM-3)
WARNING!
Never Leave the mower unattended while the head is in the
raised position. The mower could fall causing serious injury
to anyone who might inadvertently be under the mower.
(SBM-4)
WARNING!
The rotating parts of this machine continue to rotate even after the Tractor
has been turned off. The operator should remain in his seat for 60
seconds after the brake has been set, the PTO disengaged, the tractor
turned off, and all evidence of rotation has ceased. (SBM-5)
