WARNING
Operation in Reverse:
Always keep a firm grip on the mower handles
with both hands. Keep both feet firmly on the
foot platform. Operate the mower very slowly,
inching it backward until you become familiar
with how the mower operates and always if in
an awkward location or position. Never place
your foot or feet on the ground near the back
edge of the mower while backing up to prevent
serious injury to feet or legs if mower were to
run over you. Look behind you before backing to
prevent injuring yourself or anyone behind you.
Operation in Forward Direction:
Always keep a firm grip on the mower handles
with both hands. Operate the mower slowly until
you become familiar with how the mower
handles. Do not operate the mower faster than
conditions allow. For example hills, wet or
bumpy ground, dim light or high grass would all
be conditions where you should work slower
than normal. Never operate the mower at the
highest speed unless you are on level, wide,
open areas of clearly visible ground or trans-
porting on paved areas. Speeding with any
mower is dangerous, and so is traveling faster
than conditions should permit on this mower.
Sudden stops from excessive speed or falling
off the mower may cause serious injury or
death.
Operation During Zero-Radius Turns:
During zero-radius turns (when one mower
wheel rotates backwards while the other is
moving forward) drive extra slowly to reduce the
possibility of losing traction or control, or be-
coming dizzy. This will help prevent you from
being thrown off of the mower. Be aware that if
you do a turn on a slope you may go through all of
the orientations to a slope mentioned above and
must handle the mower accordingly.

WARNING
Fuel Safety:
Handle gasoline with care - it is highly flam-
mable. Do not smoke while handling gasoline.
Use an approved gasoline container. Never
remove the fuel cap or add gasoline to a running
or hot engine or an engine that has not been
allowed to cool for several minutes after running.
Never fill the tank indoors and always clean up
spilled gas. NEVER store the equipment with
gasoline in the tank inside a building where
fumes may reach an open flame or spark. Allow
the engine to cool before storing in any enclo-
sure.
Hydraulic Safety:
Keep body and hands away from pin holes or
fittings that eject hydraulic fluid under high pres-
sure. Use paper or cardboard and not hands to
search for leaks.
Hydraulic fluid escaping under high pressure
may have sufficient force to penetrate skin and
cause serious injury. If foreign fluid is injected
into the skin, it must be surgically removed
within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this
form of injury or gangrene may result. Seek
medical attention immediately. Make sure all
hydraulic fluid connections are tight and all
hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition
before starting the Wright mower. Hydraulic fluid
is under high pressure. If you need service on
your hydraulic system, please see your autho-
rized Wright dealer.
We really want you to be as safe as pos-
sible. Please read the above again and again
until you fully understand the methods to
promote the safest operation possible.
REMEMBER - YOUR MOWER CAN BE ONLY
AS SAFE AS THE OPERATOR.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW SAFE OPERATING
PRACTICES MAY RESULT IN
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
