Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating
parts. Keep clear of the discharge opening at all
times.

Remember there is no such thing as a safe slope.
Travel on grass slopes requires particular care. To
guard against overturning:
– do not stop or start suddenly when going up
or downhill;
– machine speeds should be kept low on slopes
and during tight turns;
– stay alert for humps and hollows and other
hidden hazards;
– never mow across the face of the slope, unless
the mower is designed for this purpose.
– Use counterweight(s) or wheel weights when
suggested in the operator's manual.
•
Stay alert for holes in the terrain and other hidden
hazards.
•
Watch out for traffic when crossing or near
roadways.
•
Stop the blades from rotating before crossing
surfaces other than grass.
•
When using any attachments, never direct discharge
of material toward bystanders nor allow anyone
near the machine while in operation.
•
Never operate the machine with damaged guards,
shields, or without safety protective devices in
place. Be sure all interlocks are attached, adjusted
properly, and functioning properly.

Do not change the engine governor settings or
overspeed the engine. Operating the engine at
excessive speed may increase the hazard of personal
injury.

Before leaving the operator's position:

vibration occurs. Inspect the mower for

Reduce the throttle setting during engine run-out
and, if the engine is provided with a shut-off valve,
turn the fuel off at the conclusion of mowing.

Keep hands and feet away from the cutting units.

Look behind and down before backing up to be
sure of a clear path.

crossing roads and sidewalks. Stop blades from
rotating.

Be aware of the mower discharge direction and do
not point it at anyone.

Do not operate the mower under the influence of
alcohol or drugs

Never store the equipment with fuel in the tank
inside a building where fumes may reach an open
flame or spark.

Allow the engine to cool before storing in any
enclosure.

To reduce the fire hazard, keep the engine,
silencer/muffler, battery compartment and fuel
storage area free of grass, leaves, or excessive
grease.

Check the grass catcher frequently for wear or
deterioration.

Keep all parts in good working condition and all
hardware and hydraulic fittings tightened. Replace

prevent entrapment of the fingers between moving
blades and fixed parts of the machine.
